I'm having surgery on the 20th as well. I'm so excited and starting to get a little scared. I'm sooooo sick of this pre surgery diet though. I'm actually looking forward to the liquids only on Wednesday because I'm getting sick of all the veggies!

Good luck, August sleevers. I would strongly advocate going to Clear Liquids today (which is what I did, three days before). I just wasn't comfortable with the idea of recently eaten food and my stomach being reconstructed. Apart from that, I knew it would help me a great deal with this awful liquid phase from which I am about to graduate on Thursday. I think the glee of being on the doorstep of surgery totally hijacks any hunger sensation within these last 72 hours, and personally, while I had ravenous hunger throughout pre-op, it completely gave up when I closed within three days as your brain has been told things are about to get very different. God bless!

Great advice Sleevy. I was thinking about starting liquid tomorrow instead of Wednesday. Or maybe do liquid for the second half of tomorrow. Good luck transitioning to mush!

      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? 🤷‍♀️

      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.
