Intermittent fasting is doable and workable. Despite me not sticking to it before WLS, I did it for about 3 months and saw significant changes. I disagree with the above poster, because I did my weights during my fast. I gained muscle and was getting stronger. When you do you homework on how the body works during IF, it’s pretty fascinating. It can be a long term way of eating. There are several here who do the 16:8 IF. Once I reach my goal and not working (time for weights in my fasting period) , I’ll be doing it as well. You’ll get tons of OPINIONS on here, including mine. 😂 but like what you did to go wfpb, do for IF, research it, learn how your body processes fasting and eating in a window. I highly recommend it.

I had 1 vodka Water with lime at around 2 months post-op; I'm wasn't a regular drinker before surgery (a few beers every now and then, but won't go back to that due to calories and carbonation), and I felt nothing out of the ordinary after one drink. No passing out or any feeling tipsy or anything like that, maybe that bar just serves weak drinks.

Try sleeping and hugging a pillow, I found it more comfortable plus it was protection against hubbie's accidental elbows lol.

Happy to hear you are feeling well.

After surgery I was having what my doctor called was mental hunger. After being sleeved the task is to recondition the mind about food. As my doctor explained it the portion of your stomach that is removed creates the chemical that causes hunger.

Listen to your body.. Is your mind telling you, you've gotta eat or are you feeling weak, having stomachache (hunger cramps)?
I kept my mouth busy by chewing ice, that kept my mind distracted.
You can make it...

Take the Vitamin supplements, they seem to give me energy and I don't seem to be hungry with them.

Thanks DaleCruse and mzsantiago88 for your response and encouragement its really appreciated[emoji16]I have definitely switched it up with the broth and Jello flavors. I have been eating more sugar free popsicles then anything, so many that i feel just a little guilty about it! i have also tried mixing my Protein Shakes together for a different flavor lol. I’m definitely going to do my best to stick it threw! Thanks again

I would have diff Jello and switch up between broth flavors my surgery is today so if I can do it you can do it just keep telling yourself I'm almost there

This is day three for me on the 2 week pre-op diet and i am already strugglinga lot! NO food? REALLY? I imagined it would be just a little easier then this I did great on my nut visits an changing my eating habits, even got my twin doing the liquid diet with me trying to keep me motivated but i dont think I’m going to make it 🤦🏾‍♀️when I’m home all i want to do is sleep so i wont eat anything! But seem like lately Im mostly at work STARVINGand it seems like all of a sudden every one wants to offer me food( no-one there knows I’m having surgery but i do say I’m on a diet) it doesn’t seem to matter. How are you getting though or how did you make it through the two weeks? Any helpful tips would be great I’m already over these Protein Shakes and broth

One week, and did fine.

I was off a total of 5 weeks. Because I could.
3 weeks I could have gone back. I’m at a desk job for the most part. Still slightly foggy headed at 3 weeks. I was glad to be home to transition from puréed to soft. I was glad I had time to figure it out. I was glad to have time to plan for different things I encounter at work.

I’m a kindergarten teacher and had the surgery two weeks before school started. I started school and was very tired because I wasn’t getting enough food and Water down. Other than that I was fine.

Congratulations and good luck. keep us informed of your status. : )
