Scared thinking of canceling surgery
I’m March 12 also. I’ve been in liquid diet for 2 weeks. I’m scared to! It’s very scary and I’m a little under the weather right now to. The thought of postponing and starting over....no way!! I’m keeping my eye on the prize. I know I’ll go into the hospital on Monday, go to sleep and when I wake up it will be the start of my new life and that get me excited!

Any March 2018 Sleevers?
I know they say afterward people are tired bc of the lack of calorie intake. Anyone tired during the pre-op liquid diet? I’m exhausted but I also feel like I may be getting sick. Surgery is scheduled for Monday please cross your fingers for me!

Day 6 post op mood
I’m on day 5. I made some fat free/sugar feee pudding with fat free milk and it’s very filling. I split them up into half cup servings so I don’t eat to much. But pretty much everyday I have water, 3-4 protein shakes, chicken broth, sugar free jello and sugar free pudding. I’m dying to chew something!! Lol

Why no caffeine
I decided to kick the coffee habit on the start date of my liquid pre op. My first 2 days was a living hell. I was hungry had the most excruciating headache and I felt like my head was in the clouds. I started feeling better in day 3. I’m now on day 4 and I can say I feel way better. I’m still a little hungry...well maybe not hungry I just wanna chew something! Lol. I guess it’s all old habits that have to be broken;)

Why no caffeine
Does anyone know why we can't have caffeine on the liquid pre op diet? I started today and I'm just curious as to why no coffee....I'm having a hard time with that. Thanks

Recovery
I did speak to my surgeon. He told me a week totally off was fine but don't do anything strenuous for the week I go back. I had 3 c-sections they all said this will be a walk in the park compared to that. He would give me more if I needed but I'm keeping my surgery to myself so I was trying not to take more than a week.
