I've done so well on the diet until today. I'm on my period, and 800 calories is definitely not enough for this hunger. I ended up having a can of chicken noodle Soup. It wasn't a cheeseburger, but I'm still wanting to eat. I'm sure it is emotional. I'm so angry that I have until the 22nd, and I'm struggling so hard.

You can make it!! Stay strong!

I am finishing up day 8 of my pre-op liquid diet and I am having a very hard time tonight. I am due for my period, having the PMS cravings and PMS headaches and have just been sitting g in my bed so I don't get too close to temptations!!!!! I wish the 23rd would get here all ready!!!!!!! :(

PMS, it's the worst! I'm scheduled for surgery on the 28th, and I am pms'ing too. Keep strong!

Wow u were in the hospital that many days? I left the hospital on Wed and I hadn't passed gas yet. They still let me go home, since I was doing good.

Looks like I'll be joining the Januaries! 1/29 - got my date today. Trying to do my shopping tomorrow and figure out what I need to be stocking up on for post op. Have to lose some more weight to ensure I can keep my date though.

Had surgery on 17th and was home yesterday. Pain wasn't too bad. Was just hard to move with the drainage tube and catheter the first two days. I'm feeling much better now that I'm home. The two week liquid pre-op diet was the hardest part by far. It paid off though. I don't feel any hunger whatsoever.

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
