September 24, 20169 yr Keep busy! Do things. Get outside. Go for a walk. Drink lots of water. After a length of time you should stop losing, so take advantage of NOW!!!! Good luck!
September 24, 20169 yr I found it really took a week to figure out how to space out the shakes that was going to work for me. My pre-op is 4 shakes a day and basically nothing else. I go to bed early! Keep busy and just do my best. It's really hard, but only temporary. You can do it! Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

It is much less intense.

September 24, 20169 yr I'm on day 3 as well! My headache and nausea is a little better but so weak and dizzy at end of day. I would say Water and broth help when I am hungry. I am more nauseated than hungry though. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

September 24, 20169 yr It's really hard hun try drinking some Powerade zero. I sip on mine all day long. The hunger pains are less intense. I really does help. I drink 2 bottles a day. It has helped me get through the last 8 days of this nightmare. Edited September 24, 20169 yr by motherboard

September 25, 20169 yr Hang in there! I just finished my 7th day on the pre-op. The shakes do curb the appetite for me but just to a point. Man, do I want "real" food again! I agree with the others who have responded. Stay busy. I takes walks with my dog. Also I stay full with liquids and broth when I dont want a shake. I gotta be honest, I have snapped with my temper a few times over the past few days. I am not fun to be around lately! The good news it that is temporary, we will ge tthrough it. Also, I have lost 6 lbs already, just on this diet!
