oh i'd say it's because you still have a large stomach that is producing a ton of ghrelin!! :) do what ever you have to do in order to stick to your pre-op diet and i PROMISE you in a few weeks it will be a distant memory!! keep it up!

2 weeks all liquid pre op? If I could do that , I wouldn't be needing a sleeve! I'm such a loser! And hungry!

oh trust me you'd still need a sleeve :P i had the same thought because i did a 2 week liquid pre-op diet and lost 20 lbs and i thought, hey i could just keep this up! yeah, no i couldn't have LOL. No human being could. Hunger would eventualy do you in! You are NOT a loser (hopefully in the weight loss sense you will be) and hungry is so totally normal. It will all pass!

I admire u for losing 20 lbs pre op!!! I have 9 days to stuck with liquids and lose weight. I am really afraid they won't do the surgery if I can't lose by then. This is the story if my fat life ...

are you drinking chicken/beef broth? those were the only things that saved me on my pre-op diet. I didn't even pay attention to how much sodium was in it - didn't care!!!! i was drinking enough fluids to flush it out

You CAN do this and you will be thankful post-op. I won't lie, it's not easy everyday - but it gets easier after surgery and easier every day thereafter. I'm 2.5 weeks out and I can't believe it but I FORGET TO EAT!!!! That's how not hungry you become. It's a feeling I know I would never be able to achieve w/o the sleeve.

2.5 wks post-op: down 19.5 lbs from surgery weight :) hang in there!

      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!!
