So it's my 2nd day of my pre-op liquid diet and it sucks !! I hope it's gets easier but today was really hard because at work they ordered cheeseburgers for lunch and ate around me :(

I just have to have strength and know that the outcome will be worth it :)

When I was pre-op and those type of situations happened, I just went for a walk or ran to the corner store. Just to not make it harder on myself. I even just walked around the building.

You can do it! Good luck!

Ohh... I don't want to experience that part.. I will have to warn everybody at work.. I resently quit smoking, so they are pretty prepared for what liquid only may do for me! My family is just happy I will be at work for the first few days of the pre op diet LOL Good luck, keep strong. We are going to have lots of days where they eat around us.. you've got this :)

Only about two more days to go before the hunger, weakness, and headaches go away. You'll feel as well as you did before the diet and be amazed at how well you do on how little you're consuming. :D

Omg today is day 1 of preop for me. I do not like this headache and weird buzzy feeling. Can't wait to have my 5oz of Fish for dinner...never been so happy to say that's what I get for dinner... Oh and they all ate yummy tacos around me at work today. How can you miss something so bad and you were eating real food yesterday... Oh well. This is my decision and I'm sticking to it if it kills me lol

I am having mine the 25th at Forest Park in Dallas Tx. I am hoping I get a go for surgery. Having late testing done with a cardiologist due to some results I got last week from the EGD. Good luck to you too! You will be a few days ahead of me. And of course we CAN stay on course with the preop.

      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!!
