My surgery is April 23rd and I am on day 2 of my liquid diet. I thought about cheating so many times today but managed to stand my ground. I am so hungry!!! I have been peeing like a racehorse all day as well, lol. I was not expecting the irritating headaches either. This is going to be a huge learning curve for this girlie!

I started my diet today. Thankfully it's only a week, but I'm very restricted. I can only have Protein drinks, flavored Water, sugar free Jello, sugar free popsicles and broth. I'm already starving! I completely feel your pain. I keep wondering how I'm going to make it through the next 6 days.

My preop diet is exactly like yours, today is day 3 for me! Mine is also for a week but I started a day early. BEST OF LUCK on your wls journey!!! We can do it!

The sugar free jell-o puddings are the best!!! They taste delicious! Try the chocolate/vanilla swirl and also chocolate flavor...you wont regret. Ask you nut if you can have it.

I don't know anything about the filter for blood clotting, but I definitely plan on asking. I have found that I really like the Muscle Milk Lite drinks in the chocolate flavor. I have also enjoyed sugar free Jello with sugar free pudding layered on top. The liquid diet is hard but I am now in day 3 and the headaches seem to have let up a little. April 23rd is the big day and I know I have to do the liquid diet for 3 weeks post op so I better get used to it. I know I can do this and can't wait to remove the fat suit I have been wearing! Just have to take it one day at a time. We all can do this!

Thank you! Best of luck to you as well! My days are counting down slowly, but surely. I did cheat a bit last night and had a can of white meat chicken and some hot sauce (weird combo, I know). I did chew it very thoroughly and it was all Protein, so I guess it could have been worse! I've been strong since then though.

You must be super high risk for blood clotting if they are putting in a filter. Have you had blood

Clots before?

My surgery is April 29, and I'm doing the pre-op diet too. Three liquid today plus a lean cuisine at night, which feels pretty doable. One thing I figured out right away though was that I had to get all the tempting stuff out of the house, or out of sight anyway. I put my shake stuff in one covered so I don't have to open the other ones and see all the other food, and refrigerator things for me in one section so I'm telling myself it is off-limits to go looking through the rest of it. Good stuff I can cheat with is never "out of mind" but putting it out of sight makes it just a little bit easier! Good luck everyone.

no i never had any problems with blood clotting , they do it to ever patients becasue they give you blood thinner in the OR afterward some patients have blood clotting so the filter prevents clots from going to your heart i guess it just a precautions

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?
