Anyone having surgery 7-15?

[pik 262]

Day 4 of my pre op diet. Yesterday I was suffering. I have had nausea for quite a bit now, prior to the diet. I had it for 6 days before starting my diet and I have had it up until going to bed last night. Yesterday I wanted to give up.

I was hungy and had nausea for so long I couldn't take it any more. I wanted to just say no to the surgery. I know I need my Hiatal Hernia surgery no matter what but I was ready to be done with the WLS.

Today I am feeling a lot better. Just nausea a bit with the shake I had this morning. (and cleaning the litterbox) ugh.

I am hoping it won't be an all day ordeal and so far it hasn't been. Thank the Lord for that!

I have surgery on the 14! Super excited and nervous all at the same time! !!! Half way through the liquid diet. It hasn't been as bad as I was expecting but I'm worried about getting tired of the Protein Drinks the second week!!

Hi, I have been on liquids for a week now. If the smell of food gets to strong for me I take a walk

I would love to have a salad right now! I would love to have a chick pea! LOL! I can't get over some of the diets other drs use.

I went to my ml house today and had to leave.....food smelled so good. Just made things worse. Ugh.

I think my biggest problem is coming off the caffine. I am having horrible headaches and feel really sluggish. Its almost like a head fog or haze if that makes sense. I have 0 energy. Anyone else experiencing this? Or am I weird?

I didn't come off caffeine....I need to check to see if I was supposed to. I know I needed to after surgery but I didn't know before too!

My surgery is 7/17! On day 4 of the liquid diet. Can't wait to get it over with and on to my new way of life! ????

Misty,

I weaned myself off soda when I first started all this back in feb, yes it is normal. Stay strong

[pik 262]

I stopped drinking soda a long long time ago but I still drink a cup of coffee a day. I checked my diet and I didn't have to stop it for the liquid diet but I think I will have to stop after surgery.

I will probably try and do one day caffeine, next day Decaf, so on and so forth.
