Today is day 4 of my Optifast liquid diet. I have one more work shift before surgery on Thursday morning.

I've done fairly well sticking to pre-op diet. Protein first and veggie, low carb. I gave up sodas 3 months ago. I also have done really well on the liquid diet, zero solids. I don't feel hungry. I do however want to eat. Not just eat....like throw down an entire medium pizza eat. Now, obviously that is not healthy. I wouldn't do anything to jeopardize my journey. It's really a bizarre feeling. I know in my heart I'm doing the right thing. My head wants to binge. Does this go away post op after getting used to your sleeve?

Today was way better than yesterday. I didn't have a bunch of head hunger. It is my last day of pre-op liquid diet. My surgery is tomorrow morning. I am super nervous.

How long did you have to do the pre-op diet? I have to do it for 10 days and I am worried that my hunger is going to overtake my will power.

I had the surgery done 4/7/26 and the last two days all I think about is food! Am I crazy? Does anyone else feel this way?
