What are you drinking? How often? Etc. I'm on day 3 and so far I'm doing ok. I can tell you what I'm doing if that will help. When I get up i make three shakes to take to work. Pack those and two sf jellos. At 730 I start shake one. At 930 have a jello. 1130 shake. 130 jello. 330 shake. When I get home the last two nights in have some chicken broth while family eats. Then have another shake about 8pm. In between all that drinking lots of water. I've already had 8 cups nor counting what's in my shakes. I've also been chewing gum if I feel the urge to eat. Not sure if that helps.

On day 3 of 15 of my preop diet and I haven't really been hungry. I have a shake about every 3 hours and maybe some jello or broth and lots of water. But my damn brain wants to eat! I've been at work thinking about bad foods but I'm. Other hungry. I know I can do this... Does it get easier?

I'm the 10th as well. Started preop yesterday. Have to do 5 Bariatric advantage shakes a day. I can also have all the SF Popsicles and jello I want. Any clear liquids SF of course and broths. I'm so nervous and excited to do this.

i have the conair weight watchers scale. it does okay. i noticed that if its not in the same exact location it will be off. althouhg after just quickly reading a few reviews of mine on amazon seems everyone hates it hahaha. let us know if you find one you like.

today starts day 1 of my 14 day liquid diet. i have to do 5 Protein shakes a day, can also have sf Jello or popsicles, and any other Clear liquids, and broths. plus at least 64 ounces of Water but that include the shakes. so far so good. i am not hungry but my brain definitely wants to eat. so i just got some sf gum to help that needing to eat feeling. anyone else start today? how are you doing? we shall see how i am in a few days .

Thanks all. I definitely think its nothing more than worried about having surgery. With my c section I had no time to think and I was still awake. I've never been knocked out before. Thanks for all your advice and words.

You look great

Enjoy! I'm going to red lobster tomorrow with the hubs. My preop starts Sunday.

I start my preop diet Sunday, surgery on 12/10, and I'm really starting to freak. I was so certain this was the best decision for me. Now I'm second guessing myself. I had my preop testing this morning and I think that is what set this off. I'm so worried about complications, leaks, clots, etc. I'm sure what I'm feeling is normal but I'm really freaking. How is everyone else doing?

Congrats! I'm the day before you. I'm scared as he'll but also very excited to finally lose this weight.

When is your surgery?

December 10. I'm starting to freak out lol. I start my preop diet on Sunday. Yikes.

I too am in the same boat, baby two or wls. I also choose weight loss surgery first. Then hopefully once my weight stabilizes we will try. I'm worried about gaining too much weight when pregnant but I'm hopeful that the sleeve will be the tool I need to help others not get out of control.

I have a nose ring, can I put in a plastic ring to hold the hole open? They close really quickly.

hello. i start my shakes this monday. i have to do 5 shakes a day for 15 days. 3 of those shakes i will have to make and bring to work. what should i put them in? they will contain about 8oz of either milk or water, some ice, fruit and protien powder. any inexpensive ideas?

Congrats on starting this journey!
