I am on day 3 of my pre-op diet. The first two days, I had a headache, but I think it could have been because I wasn't drinking caffeinated coffee. Today, I did not have the headache. I have been low on energy, very tired, since I started. I know it's tough, but it does get better.

Yeah, it is going to stink. Thankfully I only have one week and can have yogurt etc. I start 7/11.

I am so thankful we don't have to do an all liquid diet in our program! It's going to be hard enough doing 3 shakes and a Lean Cuisine type meal for 2 weeks!

Thank you . It's not that's it's so much as hard i think it's just the thought of you not being able to eat food . Because I don't eat that much anyway. But last night I had a dream about eating chocolate lmao. And my Meal Replacement powder is just not a good taste at all . The only thing helping me is that I can have sugar free Jello sugar free Popsicle sticks diet Snapple and crystal light . And I drink diet Snapple and crystal light all the time so it's really making me feel a lot better lol

I'm on day one of a two week liquid diet. I. HAVE. A. HEADACHE. unlike anything I have experienced in a long time. I already cheated by eating one slice of turkey. I need prayers and divine intervention to make it. Tomorrow will be better. Yes, tomorrow will be better, right?

I've been craving Chinese food and idk why [emoji24][emoji24][emoji24] and I actually didn't have to do my first day because that's when I hit the insurance approval but it's still kind of like second day ( suppose to be third )

I have the low energy too. Honestly, I've been grumpy too a bit. It may be all in my head.

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!
