I'm very annoyed and aggravated with everything because I'm hungry. Since I started the liquid pre-op diet November 11th up until now my surgery is December 8th and I must say myself I have seen and felt changes and my moods because I'm angry about not being able to eat regular food. It's to the point where I don't even want to eat anything at all because I'm so sick of the Protein foods and shakes it's driving me mad #4weekliquiddiet

Why a whole month on the diet? I think anyone would be irritable. I am a bit. Day 11 for me. Surgery in 2 days.

I guess my surgeon wants to make sure my liver shrink so that he won't have any complications while doing my procedure...... it's truly been a difficult time for me I have been so unfair to my husband because of if and I feel bad/sad

I was. And a constant low grade headache. I had already weaned myself off of caffeine, so it wasn't related to that. I was far from perfect though. I would be on the wagon and then fall off, get back on and fall off until 4 days prior to 11-28-16. Then I cracked down. But yes, I was very cranky, emotional and in a fog.

@@Miss Impala I'm having the same issues (started last Wed 12/1 for VSG surgery 12/21) my NUT said it is withdraw from the gluten and sugar-that is why the fog. Said "after surgery you will be surprised that you felt so bad all the time but didn't realize because was your normal". I hope so!

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞

      Iʻm roughly 6 weeks post-op this morning and have begun to feel like a normal human, with a normal human body again. I started introducing solid foods and pill forms of medications/supplements a couple of weeks ago and it's really amazing to eat meals with my family again, despite the fact that my portions are so much smaller than theirs. 
      I live on the island of Oʻahu and spend a lot of time in the water- for exercise, for play,  and for spiritual & mental health. The day I had my month out appointment with my surgeon, I packed all my gear in my truck, anticipating his permission to get back in the ocean. The minute I walked out of that hospital I drove straight to the shore and got in that water. Hallelujah! My appointment was at 10 am. I didn't get home until after 5 pm. 
      I'm down 31 pounds since the day of surgery and 47 since my pre-op diet began, with that typical week long stall occurring at three weeks. I'm really starting to see some changes lately- some of my clothing is too big, some fits again. The most drastic changes I notice however are in my face. I've also noticed my endurance and flexibility increasing. I was really starting to be held up physically, and I'm so grateful that I'm seeing that turn around in such short order. 
      My general disposition lately is hopeful and motivated. The only thing that bugs me on a daily basis still is the way those supplements make my house smell. So stink! But I just bought a smell proof bag online that other people use to put their pot in. My house doesn't stink anymore.
