I start my pre-op diet this week also surgery is May 6. I'm not really hungry but its still early.. Good luck

Good luck to all of u. Just had my on 25 april and just back home today feeling better.

I am on day 5 of pre-op and it really does get better - the first three days are the worst - the sf popsicles and broth were my saving graces. you will do great

Good luck. Congrats on your surgery date.

It truly does get easier! After the third day and a whopper of a headache the rest was uphill. Good luck! You can do this!!!!

Hang in there. I was a basket case for the first five or six days as I was detoxing and in sugar withdrawal, but it got easier after that.

I'm with you! I started my pre-op liquid diet today too. It's now 6:30p.m. and getting pretty hungry. I'll be going to bed very early tonight. I hope everyone has a better day of it Tuesday.

The first 5 days for me were the worst. I was hungry and my stomach was doing "whale songs" constantly. But after day 5 it was like a miracle happened and I haven't been hungry since. I am, however, incredibly tired of tasting these same shakes day in/day out, and I would like to have something to CHEW on. Gum has helped a lot with that!

Good luck on yours. Many folks say it's the hardest part because post-op, you have little interest in eating at all

Yes headaches for the first 2 days of liquid diet . On day 4 def. alot better now not really hungry but i too have the whale sounds in my stomache . Sleeve schedualed for May 1st cant wait. Prayers for me please so nervous

I think it's different for everyone after surgery I was still hungry and grumpy it lasted a while until they bring you your tray with broth, tea, diet juice. You'll be thankful for anything and be shocked how little you can eat. Good luck

I started the preop diet today too. I only have to do it for four days. My surgery is Friday. My tummy is grumbling and I too am going to bed early. We can do this!
