I am 8 days on the pre-op diet it has not been nearly as bad as I feared, only a couple of days have i thought "if I could just cheat this little bit" but I have been good. I think it's hard because I have a husband and 4 kids to cook for and we have family dinners so while i have my skimpy dinner their having my home cooked meal, but really it's been head hunger to battle and that even hasn't been to bad.

5 days to surgery! can't wait I'll keep you guys in my thoughts and wishing you the best, everyone, and me too will all do great.

I'm on my pre-op diet and I'm allowed to eat real food up until I wake up on Wednesday morning. Wednesday and Thursday I'm on Clear Liquids only and I have my surgery Friday. All pre-op diets depend on surgeon preference.

And by real food I mean Protein and vegetables(certain low carb ones) and no starches

Protein Shakes for Breakfast and lunch and then 200-400 calorie t.v. dinner so basically 800 cals. a day. since I've decided to get the band I am only cooking healthy meals, for me I will only be succesful if its a lifestyle change even my kids have and husband has lost weight. we're all being more active and I've cut almost all carbs and my DH doesn't get heartburn anymore. we've been doing this for a month but it feels really good!

I wish you the best of luck on your journey!

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
