One thing you will learn in this forum is that every person has various rules and recommendations given by their Nutritionist and Surgeon.

Some pre ops are 2 weeks, some longer and some don't have any at all.

Some are allowed solid meals all day, some like myself was only allowed 3 Protein shakes and one low carb meal a day, some only Protein Shakes, and some as yourself it sounds like clear liquids.

You will also notice vast differences in post op diet as well.

One thing I have learned is that regardless of what everyone else might be allowed, or is doing, I have to follow what my surgical team puts in line for me. If I trusted them enough to remove my stomach, I have got to trust them regarding my nutrition is well.

It sucks I know...but you will get through this. I promise.

Just keep coming back to this forum for motivation. The fabulous people on here are always willing to help.

The head hunger is the worst. Ugh. I'm so sorry you are dealing with that. I wouldn't wish it on anyone.

Plus your body is detoxing from all those chemicals and carbs we loved so much.

The whole pre diet is very intense but I am so proud of you for sticking with it and for not looking for ways to cheat. That shows you are committed and are ready to do what it takes. Give yourself a pat on the back.

You will have bad days, good days and days you will completely question your decision to have the surgery, but I promise you will get through it and settle into the new normal and find yourself forgetting all the bad stuff.
