Starting Liquids today..sooo hungry :(



Recommended Posts

Hi All-

I started my pre-op full liquids today. Ugh It's barely been 6 hours since I've been awake and I already want to pull my hair out. All I want is a frickin salad...IS THAT TOO MUCH TO ASK FOR?? well apparently so. The nurse at my surgeons office says she wants me on all liquid. Pre-op appt is next Weds, surgery is 6/16.

This is tough, so I'm dreading the days to come...will I be so hungry like this everyday? will it get better?

At this point all I can think is, Why Me? Why Can't I be the girl who weighs 135lbs and can eat whatever she wants and not gain 80 lbs????

Moving forward.. and hoping the next shake will cheer me up!

Thanks for your response! What Protein Shakes are you drinking? So far, Lean Body is my fav...wish I could take my nutribullet everywhere I go! I especially like to blend them with ice and a bit of frozen bananas.

Mee too...I've heard that for some people, your taste buds do change and for some, they have found they cant tolerate the Protein shakes anymore, after surgery..YIKES! the ready made Protein Shakes are such an EASY way for me to get my Protein in right now.

I love my nutribullet too i got the rx i think that also makes Soups im sure it will come in handy lol im taking muscle milk 100 % whey in vanilla taste really good i hope my taste buds dont change i have a big ol bag left .

YES! and I have already dropped 5lbs so that feels great and gives me the energy to keep pushing.

I told my husband yesterday that I'm a little upset that I didn't get in ALL of my fav foods before I started this..that just goes to show how unhealthy my relationship with food is. I would still love a good burger and fries :( but im ok right now with my shakes, Water and sautéed kale :)

Day 3. It gets better

Hang in there, you can do it. Just keep thinking about the end goal. The pre op diet SUCKS since you still feel hungry. But once you have surgery you won't be hungry and you will be so happy you stuck it out

best of luck, YOU CAN DO IT

Day 1 and 2 were hard. I am on day 3 and I now have a routine and acceptance that I have had a lifetime of eating whatever and whenever I want. Now is time to start to go towards my goal, a lighter me so I can move again!

Hmmm that is a good way of looking at it. I have been on every diet you can think of and some with prescriptions weightloss pills and drinks...but in-between that I've pretty much eaten whatever I want, whenever I want.... really not paying attention to my bodies needs. Its time to get it together!!! We all deserve to be healthy and happy :)

      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? 🤷‍♀️

      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.
