So today I started my pre-op diet and it was not pretty. After taking in my Protein Shake I still felt hungry sooooooo......lol. I ate a string cheese. Then after my second Protein shake for lunch I ate 1/3rd of a Protein Bar to get me through to dinner. Amazing dinner was absolutely amazing. I had a piece of skinless salmon baked with little EVOO and kale salad on the side. Yes I finally got the satisfaction of feeling full. I am praying that tomorrow brings me good joy and I don't have to cheat. Hey look at the bright side I cheated with protein just in a solid form lol. Before starting my journey I would have never chose those items as a snack heck for nothing to go in my body so baby steps is great. 13 more days to go for surgery YYYYYAAAAYYYY!!!!!

I understand the hunger, the first three days are the worst and then it gets much easier. If you really can't make it through without cheating, you might want to check with your doctor or nutritionist to see what they suggest you do. Much luck to you.

Thank you ladies. I think I will be ok seeing as though I can have the one meal at the end of the day. I think it was a shock factor. Today is a new day and I don't want to ruin my chance at a healthier me. Blessings to you both!

I will be getting my date soon, then the dreaded pre-op diet. I'm extremely nervous about it because I know I'll be hungry as all get out! I've seen others say what @@*susan* said, though. It's supposed to be better after a few days. Good luck!!

      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?

      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞

        I may have to have gall bladder surgery during my weight loss surgery. Not thrilled about it either but do not want 2 recovery times. Just want it over with.

        Thanks for your post. I may need to rethink my decision... :(
