Hi I am still probably a month to 2 months away from being sleeved, however I am trying to start now eating better and less. I was just wondering if anyone else out there is doing the same thing or did that a month or 2 before the pre-op liquid diet? I have been doing just ok with it. I get this feeling every afternoon like my body aches almost like I am getting a cold and I am wondering if anyone else has had that feeling, wondering if it is like some withdraw from the amount of foods I am eating or maybe because it is different healthier types of food? Any suggestions or experiences will be appreciated.

I changed my diet in August and was sleeved Oct.21. My change was totally voluntary, not doctor ordered. I just wanted to lose what I could pre op, and to be in a better place handling eating high protein and low fat/carb/carb. I lost about 33lbs on my own this way. It was hard to switch. I struggled at times. I found I am a carb-aholic. Once I start eating carbs I lose control and crave them. But overall I did ok and I am glad I did it. I needed the mind reset before I had the surgery to make it forever.
