Day one of two week pre op diet...

Hi! I am on day one of my 2 week pre op diet. My diet consists of 2 shakes per day and a lean meat dinner with veggies. I have had my two shakes. I am drinking a ridiculous amount of water to try to compensate for the funny head feelings I have. Not really a headache, almost like medicine head. So weird. I am also clinching my teeth for some reason. I've been chewing sugar free gum to distract myself. I also went outside and walked a mile on my lunch break. I am praying for the willpower to stick with this for the next two weeks.

Mine allowed 2 shakes and a small meal for 2 weeks as well. On the day before surgery (yesterday for me) I was put on clear liquids. Today is the friggin day! 4 hrs and counting...

Good luck!!! How much did you lose in the 2 weeks. Our plans sound similar. You will do great today!! I am so excited for you.
I've lost another 10 so far putting me at 47 lbs lost since starting this journey in April. I've read about lots of people having to do 2 weeks of clear liquids so I won't complain about getting the easier diet haha
Congrats on the 47 lbs. WOW!! I am down 15 since I started in April. You will be a sleeve rock star!

You will be too! Good luck on your journey and stick with it! You're almost there :)

Day 2 - almost lunch time. I've thought about bum rushing people drinking coffee...just because they are drinking coffee. And all this Halloween candy around here is gonna cause me to throat punch someone. I've resorted to eating ice chips between my drinking water.
