I am feelingso weak and dizzy and hungry!!! I am on day 5 of 14, and I wonder if I can make it. this has to be some type of torture for not being able to lose the weight on my own. I guess I am feeling a little sorry for myself right now . Please send up some strength prayers for me!

Day 5 of your pre-op??? The pre-op is by far the hardest part to me!! I totally sympathize! Are you getting to have protein drinks? Popsicles really helped me. Stay strong!! It's worth it!

Could you tell us what you are having on your pre-op diet? Is it liquid or do you get to eat real food?

I can have sf jello and popsicles, low salt broth,protein shakes and all the water I want. Its just really hard when you have to cook for your family and cant enjoy it. The evenings are the hardest and I have been off work the last 3 days. I kind of wish I had to work because it was a little easier when I was there. Thanks yall I know there is a gift at the end of this for me!

Lissa, are you on blood pressure meds? I was and I cut down on them while I was doing pre-op and on the blood sugar ones because with the little amount of sodium and all the liquid and not much fat or carbs, they were too strong for my body. If you are on them, check your blood pressure and see if it isn't low. YOU CAN DO IT!

Thx...my BP was fine I considered that. I feel better now that I had a few protein drinks! Still craving food though, but I guess it will get better ...9 more days to go!
