Honestly, I think a liquid diet would have been easier, more black and white..I've had issues with severe headaches on my preop and cravings are definitely a mind game...

I am really struggling with this too. I start my pre-op diet tomorrow. I've been trying to slide into it the last two days and it has been very challenging, constantly with the stomach growling and the nausea.

Drinking 64oz of Water a day makes me want to throw it all up. I am not enjoying that much liquid...

best of luck to you!

Tips for the preop diet: Popsicles (if you can have them) are a life saver. As well as chewing on ice when you are craving something to chew (Sonic has the BEST ice to chew). also getting in those 64 oz of fluids really helps. Good luck to all!!

      It's been a bit of a struggle this last week...I'm hungry ALL the time.

        Have a great Wednesday too! Sorry you're hungry all the time, I'm pretty much the same..and I'm sick of eating the same food all the time.

      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!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
