Hi all. On day 3 of my 10 day pre op diet!! So hungry and a little moody so yes I am HANGRY!!! Anyway. Wanted to know if I can have sugar free Popsicles? Dr is out of town for the holidays and I dont classify this as an emergency to call him. Was anyone allowed them?

Hi Tiff, I'm on my 2nd day of liquid diet (pre-surgery). I was very hangry 1st day, and a little better today. I've found it's best for me to stay away from smells of food, if possible. I'm trying to drink more Water today to help out. I've found I like the powders?utm_source=BariatricPal&utm_medium=Affiliate&utm_campaign=CommentLink" target="_ad" data-id="1" >unjury Protein mixes best. I ordered them from internet. I only started with the sample packet before I started. Basically to find out which flavors I liked the best. They have a chicken flavored one and when it's added to warm Water (not hotter than 140 degrees) it taste like chicken Soup. My dr. lets me have unsweetened applesauce with artifical sweetner. I added a little cinamon to it tonight and enjoyed it. Hang in there and just remember the better we do with this liquid diet the less likely of complications with the surgery. We're getting that fatty liver shrunk so the surgeon can do an excellent job for us.!!!

I am 7 days into the pre-op diet, and it's definitely gotten easier the past couple of days. It was rough at first, but now I'm suddenly halfway there and it's smooth sailing.

My doc also encourages popsicles. So there's that.

Hang in there. It gets better!

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
