Hi guys! I'm seven hours out from my surgery and I'm surprised how fine I am. I'm starved and thirsty but I've decided this is the best thing for me. I'm so tired of fighting the weight battle with no real success. I pray this tool will help me like it has with so many others.

Good luck to my surgery buddies today!! :-).

Hey kauaigirl. I'm on day omgilostcountitsbeensolong preop diet and have fallen off the horsey damnit. But seriously have been on preop diet for 4 weeks now. Lost 20 pounds. Put 2 back on cos I wasn't careful. But head hungry all the time... 10 sleeps to go!!!!!

Oh and if anyone has myfitnesspal add me, I got it today. Pwnykat

Do the same thing as you said with walking honestly it makes recovery so much easier when you purposely walk. Sitting around will make you even more tired on top of the surgery recovery and lack of calories. I am post op day 5 trust me it gets better.

Good luck with your pre op diet I was on it for almost four weeks day 2-4 are the hardest then it gets better then beware of lack of energy.

Walk walk walk. I am day 4 post op and I feel good! Off my pain meds and I make sure to rest but constantly get up and walk around the house and I make sure to get my own water, broth, etc just to keep my body moving and walking :)

Thank you I have been trying to get up every hour and walk seems like the pressure on my stomach hurts,more when I walk but I know it must be done. I am hoping to lose my lazy with the fat :)

I am post op day four feeling great I have been walking on the treadmill and relaxing. I am having a hard time getting liquids because I am just so full. It also hurts a bit when the liquid hits my stomach. All and not bad at all I expected this to be ten times worse! Post op visit is tomorrow I gained like 5 lbs in the hospital from all the IVF so I am hoping I have she'd those and more by tomorrow. Keep the faith guys it gets better!

Hope it gets better, Give it time! I thought this would be 10x harder too!! Try different temperature fluids and sip slow. :)

Good idea karma I moved all my meds and things to the kitchen so I would have to get up and I started a journal to keep track of when to take what it is to hard to keep track of all of it unless I write it down

To everyone going to have surgery- it's not as bad as we think. I was off pain meds after 2/3 days. Today is day 4 post op for me. I feel good and don't regret it one bit. It gets hard sticking to the post op diet and I'm sometimes hungry and craving stuff but hey WE DID THIS SURGERY FOR A REASON!! Gotta stick to it. Best of luck to those still recovering!!!! Prayers for a fast healing!!!! Day 4 post op and Iv'e lost 10 pounds
