I have 12 more days of my pre-op diet until my VSG surgery on 1/25/11, I am so hungry. But I can do this!

Mine is the 24th, so I'm with you, girlfriend!

I have 12 more days of my pre-op diet until my VSG surgery on 1/25/11, I am so hungry. But I can do this!

YES YOU CAN!!! it is a small price to pay for a life of health!

I'm with ya 100%. I keep craving all my old foods, but we can't cheat - or you gotta reschedule surgery and probably pay 10k cash for wasting their time.

Take it one day at time. I found that if I had something every 2-3 hours I did not get as hungry and I could get by. A lot of this is just head hunger, knowing that you are limited in what you can eat and you want everything else. I lost 10 lbs on my presurgery diet and that was just a taste of what will happen after after surgery. My husband is calling me the incredible shrinking woman. I know he is jeaolous as he will not get surgery until the end of March or April.

Myrori stole the words right outta my mouth. YES YOU CAN!

Stick with it friend, it is WELL worth it.

I have been really close to throwing in the towel but I am focused on the end result. I foumd that if I drink my shake at the fist sign of hunger I feel full and that feeling of hunger goes away. Good Luck.

YES YOU CAN! Also pray God changes your mind!! We can all do this. I am on day 5 and just refocusing on the whole food thing helps!

I'm so glad you posted this. I'm on day 5 of my pre-op and i'm starving too. Everything I make for my husband and kids smells so good. I'm so used to picking while I prepare their meals, it's been a huge adjustment. I am trying to keep my focus on the end goal. Good luck!!!
