Thank you. Its a whole new way of living. Retraining my way of thinking about nourishment. Looking foward to the challenge.

The preop diet was challenging and I honestly didn’t stick to it. I did manage to lose some weight even having a few slip days. I had my sleeve 1/16/18 and I haven’t had any issues sticking to the post op diet. The challenge is cooking for my husband while heating me some broth! But if I can do it anyone can! Good Luck!

I’m almost 9 months post-op. 235 to 160 pounds.

I cried many times before surgery & after too. It's okay. You're not alone.

Definitely! I had a few cries pre-op. Funny thing, I haven't felt that at all since surgery on Jan 8. I feel so good and am so excited that I don't have space in my head for that now. So yes.. Most likely it will pass! Good luck to you and stay strong. Keep us updated! [emoji76]

I didn’t know it would be so hard to do this diet. I also didn’t know I was this addicted to food. I started a small diet before this but I was still able to eat food. I glad that there are groups like this and group meeting that are there to help. And the fact that I do have a good support system at home

Being one week post op I wish someone would have told me just how important the pre op diet was. I followed my pre op diet almost perfectly. I realize now that it helped me train my mind on how little I would be able to eat after surgery. I know it is really hard to stick to the pre op diet but it is also really hard to stick to the post op diet. Except post op you won’t be able to cheat because you will hurt yourself. Just remember that it is all going to be worth it in the end!! No pain, no gain. Or in this case no pain, no lose!
