All you April 3rd peeps, how are you feeling!!!! I am surprised at how little pain I have.

3 days post op & I feel good! Some minor gas pains but WALKING DEF HELPS!! Just saw my Primary & says I can drive as long as Im not taking any narcotics, which I’m happy say I don’t need! I see my surgeon next week.

I decided to start my pre op diet a little early to be I safe side and I have a little more weight to lose, but I am having major headaches from no caffeine anyone with ideas

Hi & Welcome MindyMae71!! Props to you for starting early. The headaches are def a nightmare. It only lasted for first few days for me. Stay hydrated with Water and electrolytes (Powerade zero is my fav) and hopefully the headaches will subside. All the Best!

My Bypass is April 4th. I am new to this group. I am excited and nervous at the same time. The diet is going well though I did cheat a little one day. Hopefully it won’t matter since I am on the pre-op diet for 24 days. I have already lost over 10 lbs!

Welcome!!

@dskg i’m on my 2 week liquid preop diet and it has been challenging. Days 3-4 were my worst days. The Headaches & the exhaustion was immense. But I pushed through. Days 5-present, surprisingly are much better. The Higher energy levels and the mental clarity on how my body will change, for the better, has been my motivation this week.
