Anyone else out there feel yucky on the pre-op diet? I only have 5 days to go but I'm feeling tired, having headaches, and my body hurts. I have no energy. I cut out caffine a long time ago. I had to stop some of my medication for osteoarthritis which is probably the main cause but I'm tired of feeling like this. I work 12 hr shifts and I'm not looking forward to my last three before surgery.

I keep thimking...I know I can, I know I can!

I feel for you!!!! I was supposed to be sleeved a month ago so I went through all this already, I ended up with a migraine for 2 solid days and couldn't take a thing,..I felt awful and Im due to be sleeved 7-30, not looking forward to it again, Im praying this round goes smoothly. I am so sorry your dealing with this, the only thing that seemed to make me feel a little better was sleeping and drinking lots of water. I do hope you feel better and good luck to you!!

It is hard, thankfully it is only for a few more days. If you find it difficult to work, call your Nut. They might be able to give you a revised diet or add to it to get you through.

Best of luck to you!!

Thank you. I know this is a process. I hate headaches! I'm drinking and drinking! Good luck to you!

I had a terrible headache yesterday and still some of it today, but feel like I am finally doing better. I am only on day 3 of a 14 day diet and I still want to eat everything in sight, but I keep telling myself that it will get better. I just keep fluids in me to help subside the "hunger" pains. The only down fall to drinking so much is that I am up 2-3 times nightly to go to the bathroom. UGH! Good Luck to all!

Lisa, you seem to have the hardest part of this down... a great mental attitude going into it.

Let us know how you are doing.

Warm broth stopped my headache today, you have to force those fluids so u don't dehydrate

Thank you guys so much! I worked a 12 hr shift last night and really don't know how I survived! Along with my weight issues, and then some, I also have Fibromyalgia. It's kicking my butt right now! I hurt from head to toe, can't sleep, etc... I already called and told work I won't be able to make it tonight:( Hate to do that but I'm not going to be any good there, if I could even drag myself out to get there.

This will get better! At this point I welcome a little anesthesia;) lol

I'm right there with ya'....day 3 of the pre-op diet and big time headache today! I am allowed to take Tylenol, so that helps. I'm gonna try to drink more water, too....Good luck to you! My surgery is the 26th.

I'm a Nurse too, and I quit my last job (that I really loved) because I just couldn't work 12 hour shifts anymore. I started my liquid diet on Thursday. Thursday and Friday were stressful at work (I work on an Acute Psych Unit). I don't know if it was the stress or the 2nd day of liquids, but I did have a headache and my neck and shoulders were hurting me. I took 2 Tylenols at work. When I got home (at midnight), I took a Flexeril and Restoril and had a good night's sleep. I'm off this weekend, start my 4th day of liquids today and I feel fine. I have 7 more shifts to work before I start my medical leave. I can't wait to board that plane.... Surgery is Aug. 1st in Mexico.
