Pre-Op Diet and the Monster Inside

Hey y'all. I'm on my third day of the liquid pre-op diet and there seems to be a monster living inside my stomach! It is quite angry.

Question for those in the know. Does this monster shut up after the sleeve surgery? If so, is it right away?

It doesn't hurt, it's just embarrassing when in public. Seriously LOUD!! ????

The Pre op diet is HORRIBLE. I was so hungry. AFterwards it hurt to swallow Water. I was not hungry for about 3 weeks or so. Some people say they don't get hungry but I definitely do. I get ravenously hungry but eat about 5 or 6 bites and it is gone.

Nope. Mine is a loud and hateful beast. After surgery I thought I would no longer feel hungry but this turned out to be incorrect in my case. I get hungry periodically and when I do it's extreme, loud and urgent. Good news: it takes about two bites of something to shut it down for hours so I just plan for it daily. There's always a way :-)

I'm not really hungry but my sleeve is a loud little girl! She grumbles and rumbles all day long, lol. Every drink I take every bite I eat she has something to say. It's not painful just annoying.... get used to it. From what I have been told it takes a while for it to go away if it ever really does.

Well, I'm glad the beast/monster can be tamed with just a few bites. Right now, it refuses to be satisfied. But just have today and tomorrow the deed is done.
