HANGRY!

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...

Hi Beeteroo! That's an amazing effort I'm hoping for another 4-6kg by the 1st (roughly 8-13lbs) but I'm just sooooo hungryyyyyyyyyyyyy I have my pre opp consult with my surgeon 2mrw so let's see how it goes :) keep up the good work...what have u been eating?

I feel the same way. I am on day 9 of the pre-op and I am very irritated however I have stayed on the diet. I am ready to be on the other side of surgery.

Well today wasn't a good day for me to tell you what I've been eating. I've eaten way too much of the wrong things today! Easter candy has thrown itself into my mouth.....my hands had nothing to do with it. I've been having 2 protein shakes a day with a light low carb dinner. 2-3 servings of fruit, sugar free jello, and sugar free Popsicles. I've also been trying to drink a bunch of water.

Hi Beeteroo! Hahah that Easter candy has a mind of its own doesn't it! But ur eating sounds like mine too I made a roast Cheryl tomato and capsicum salad with balsamic vinegar and a bit of garlic grilled asparagus and grilled eggplant with a roasted chicken breast a bit of this a bit of that....lol yummy love eggplant lol oh and had my shakes :)

I am only three days post op but I can honestly say the pre-op (especially through Easter) was THE harder part for me. And yes, BAD breath! Try some sugar free lifesavers??

Omg I've got to do a FOUR week optifast and vegetable diet !!!! How will I cope. I started Tuesday but I got to start again tomorrow. I've been naughty!!!

Hi rmv! Oh wow 4 weeks of optifast? Good luck my friend! It will all be worth it once it's over....when did u start?

Hi QueenBeeBee please excuse me you were my first message sent as I just joined now. I literally decided on Tuesday to have surgery. I phoned Dr room and they told me to start optifast liquid diet straight away. Tuesday I had all good intentions, had my shake for breakfast, by lunch, I was like "I can't do this" and gave into temptation. Likewise today I dropped off the bandwagon at lunch but picked it up for dinner. I can see I'm going to seriously struggle.

I am on day 10 of prepping diet. My surgery is 4/29

Hi Erieb2healthy :) thank u for the motivation I definately feel better today and have my head in the game :) it's a little easier to tolerate now just keep pre opping :) I just hope my liver is nice an skinny for my surgeon now :)10 days to go

Hi QueenBeeBee I'm starting my pre-op diet 28th and I will be in Vegas glad I will be there for a week only this is one time I'm looking forward to Vegas, only going because the hubby is receiving an award.

Theoleage: you are so welcome! I am hoping to join you all soon on the road to the sleeve. I go on Tuesday for my referral and hopefully the journey begins for me. Have a great day!

I'm on officially day two of my pre-op diet, which for my surgeon is all liquids. I am not proud to admit, I cheated both days... had a small portion of peanuts yesterday, and then just ate a hardboiled egg... I'm just really craving something to chew on. Maybe gum, or sugar free lifesavers, as someone else said, would help?
