Hi my name is Cathy...having the sleeve on Aug 24 and getting nervous. Start my pre op liquid diet on the 17th and am worried about headaches and such with that. Anyone have tips or suggestions for all this pre op stuff???

@@cat127 - good morning. I would week off the caffeine now a little less each day. I love coffee and tea. what kind of WLS are you having?

Don't be nervous, that will just make it all the more daunting. See how you feel and take each day/problem as it comes. There's so much useful information on this forum (I always find that if I have a question it's already been answered somewhere here!), so just search or ask again if something arises. Best of luck to you.

Having the gastric sleeve..I don't drink much caffeine if any..so that shouldn't be a problem. Just concerned straight liquid foe a week will get boring quick and I'll be hungry

I am have surgery the same day I start pre- diet on 14th. I took and saved juice off peas, beans, ect...and going to put unflavored protein in it.
