Anyone else experience lack of energy on the pre-op liquid diet? This is day 2 and I am so tired. I've been taking a multi Vitamin since we are lacking nutrients. But my goodness I thought I had low energy before.

Well my 2 week liquid pre-op has been aborted..dr called and changed my surgery to Jan 11th. The good thing is, it's a better surgery time..12 instead of 3 and I can go to Christmas dinners without carrying all of my food with me.

Hi !!! Guys ????

I will be wrapping things up next week.. I have had a long road in front of me! From being denied to have to start all over again!!!

I was like most people. I show up to my appointment get weighted and move on... Well not so fast???? turns out that My surgery center was not billings correctly.. So long story short it looked like I never went through the weight loss program. But grateful to be able to finish the program finally!!

I want to know if anyone has tried to do a liquid diet before an pre-op diet starts?? I was told to do one day for the week. I have find myself so hungry, that I ended up with a Migraine and in the E.R. ????????????

I did 1 full day of the liquid diet, the only thing I felt(feel) was extremely tired. Like I have taken naps today and yesterday something I usually do just on Sunday's. I never got a headache. Did they say at the hospital that it was something you were lacking? Or was it the type of Protein Drinks you used?

Yes to the emergency room!! but I might add I have chronic Migraines to begin with. I was told to drink Atkins Protein Shake. Because of the amount of Protein in it.. I like drinking premier but I can only have three of those. Premier has to much protein before surgery.

I've done the juicing thing before. The first 3-5 days for me are like that. No energy and then I adapt.

Yes definitely.... Seems like when I first started this journey it was a rare procedure or at least it seemed but as times passed seems it's getting popular

      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.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      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? 🤷‍♀️
