Hi guys! Just going to have a bit of a vent if that's ok! I'm sooo over this pre opp diet! It's making me so cranky! I'm hungry ALL the time which is making me angry!!! So every little thing is getting on my nerves I'm doing three shakes a day and I'm allowed some veggies and 100g of protein and I've been very good but it's a nightmare I wish surgery day would hurry up and come so I'm not hungry all the time... Rant over thank u for listening and understanding...Pre opp diet can go suck it lol still got until the 1st of May that's 11 days!!!!!!!!! I'm a hot mess guys...

Queen Bee Bee, sorry but I couldn't help laugh at your little rant! It's good to have a place to let these emotions out. I'm new to this site but have found it so helpful already. It's good for us all to hear the good and the difficult times. I'm in the just beginning category and I don't want to hear only the positive. I want to hear the real deal! When I get to that pre opp diet I want to know what to expect..REALLY expect! So thank you for posting your true feelings. I hope you are feeling better soon! Take care

Hahhahahah thank you for listening I swear I'm normally not so cranky I just want the hungry feeling to go away u know done days are better than others lol

Hey queenbee, I am on day 10 of my liquid diet. I am literally climbing the walls. Have 4 more days of this crap! I feel your pain. I am so glad to know none of us are alone in this journey. Keep strong:)

. 4 more.. You can do it!! 2 weeks after surgery is the same as you will feel and be hungry about 3 days pits op. You don't feel restriction till you start full liquids or mushy. So just make peace with the pre op diet! You feel lighter? I did and that made me feel fantastic and got me through it!

Sending some motivation your way today Queenbeebee!!! Hope today is going well. You can do it!!! Im like Nancy who posted earlier, this is just the beginning for me in terms of getting the sleeve so im sure when the time comes for the pre op diet I will need alot of help. Lol. Take care.

You're welcome!!! I hope you will keep us posted on your journey. Your experience during this process is so helpful and insightful. I know when I start the pre op diet I will be feeling the same. E.

So today is so much easier...I've been able to cook for hubby without resenting him! So big breakthrough...I was feeling jealous that he could eat all these yummy foods while I was sucking down another shake and I was getting angry with him and myself and it was aweful. Today it doesn't bother me too much. I'm starting to feel fuller on the shakes now they sustain me a lot more too haven't cracked the shits at all today VICTORY!!!! Thank god for this app and the Facebook page sassy sleevers just helps to know ur not alone and helps to know whAts in store 10 more days to go!!!!

Hang in there! It gets better. The preop diet (I did 2 weeks of only liquids) was the worst part. I'm 2.5 months postoperative and have lost 55 lbs!

Hi guys, don't know if anyone is following this but it helps to write down what's happening so after a calm day yesterday the hangries attacked today so cracked it a bit an had a nap lol thank god for Easter break back at work 2nrw so I don't know how that's going to go just need to hang in there on plus side since Wednesday I have lost 6kg which is 13lbs so that's good right? Hoping to lose another 3-5 kg by the 1st of May.... hanging in there...oh has anyone started to have some smelly breath?

I have surgery in 5 weeks and was told to low carb the week before to shrink my liver, but I'm trying to start earlier. It's really hard, I completely understand. I did Ideal Protein for 5 months and lost 50 pounds but lived in a perpetual state of hunger. It was horrible-led to serious carb-binging after I finally gave up. I would literally have lists of foods I was craving. So, I'm nervous about going back into a hunger-diet situation.

You are doing so well! I wish I had words of encouragement beyond "it's almost over."

Keep up the great work and feel free to vent-we all get it!

Hello Traveler! You raise a great point so my friend was like wow ur doing great why can't u just do this instead of surgery? So I said well u do this for a week and let's see how u go? People think it's "the easy way out" I think it's like a reset on ur tummy giving urself a second chance an I stand talk and proud and my haters are my motivators lol.

Mmmm carbs I'm dying for a good burger or some fries or a kebab omg I'm starving lol but I hope my doctor compliments me on my skinny liver and is like wow that was the best liver I've seen!!!!

Believe me I'm trying to hang in ther 9 days to go!!!!! So what are u planning to do for preopp have u got some meals in mind?
