PEOPLE WHO ONLY DID 3 day liquid pre op diet



Recommended Posts

I am not "resentful" that a relatively thin woman is getting VSG surgery. I am sad for her because she has gone to DRASTIC lengths to stay thin/get thinner. She hasn't a frickin clue what she's in for. I also wouldn't even buy a drink in Mexico let alone have someone cut me open and remove part of my body there for a measly 5700. You'd have to be flippin nuts to do that' date=' BUT that's just me, I know a lot of people here have had VSG in Mexico and been happy and successful as a result. However, I can remember my first few days after VSG and it was not the most comfortable. Could you frickin imagine taking a plane flight ACROSS THE DAMN GLOBE after having VSG???? Seriously post op'ers, think about that for a second. Also kiss your favorite junk foods goodbye. That ain't gonna happen anymore. A soda? Forget it. Oh, your mates want to go out and have a drink to Celebrate something? Nope, NO alcohol if you want to continue losing or want to maintain that goal weight. I'd also be damned if I was going to do this surgery because some ****** bag on a plane or wherever made a comment about my weight. And this one: "I'm sick of people making comments and children laughing at me when I come out in my bathing suit to watch them in the pool." Man oh man, you seriously need some therapy because you have some serious paranoia and self esteem issues as well.[/quote']

A huge percentage of people have gone to Mexico for this surgery and said they received better care then they have in the states. I don't really drink alcohol. And no I'm not doing it because of a few comments. I'm sick of repeating myself for my reasons. It's ok if we dont agree - we obviously aren't going to see each others views

I still eat my fav junk foods in moderation - almost everyday. I work out more if I treat myself. I also drink alcohol most weekends now im 5 months out. I am.always within 800-1000 cals a day. This is ok with my surgeon and NUT. I have not stalled once and I'm almost at goal. I was determined to treat it as a lifestyle change not another diet where i deprive myself. I carry weight well and already I am getting comments like "your getting too skinny now" etc which are super annoying.

Hey that's not fair! Two different contexts! I totally didn't call you a b*tch then. And I said B now because I'm tired of sensoring my spelling.

Trust me. If I called you the b word back then, I'd totally admit it.

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

        Life as a big person had limited my life to what I knew I could manage to do each day. That was eat. I hadn't anything else to look forward to. So my eating choices were the best I could dream up. I planned the cooking in managable lots in my head and filled my day with and around it.

        Now I have a whole new big, bigger, biggest, best days ever. I am out there with those skinny people doing stuff i could never have dreamt of. Food is now an after thought. It doesn't consume my day. I still enjoy the good home cooked food but I eat smaller portions. I leave food on my plate when I am full. I can no longer hear my mother's voice saying eat it all up, ther are starving children in Africa who would want that!

        I still cook for family feasts, I love cooking. I still do holidays but I have changed from the All inclusive drinking and eating everything everyday kind to Self catering accommodation. This gives me the choice of cooking or eating out as I choose. I rarely drink anymore as I usually travel alone now and I feel I need to keep aware of my surroundings.

        I don't know at what point my life expanded, was it when I lost 100 pounds? Was it when I left my walking stick at home ? Was it when I said yes to an outing instead of finding an excuse to stay home ? i look back at my last five years and wonder how loosing weight has made such a difference. Be ready to amaze yourself.

        BTW, the liquid diet sucks, one more day and you are over the worst. You can do it.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!
