Since I have been doing the liquid diet I have been dizzy and have a headache. Is that normal?

I am scheduled to have surgery 1/2/18 and am on day 3 of the pre-op liquid diet. I have had a headache each night.

I think my headaches are due to caffeine and sugar withdrawal.


I’m struggling!! My surgery is the 9th, I start the pre diet on 12/26 and I’m really struggling with dieting,, I needed to lose 20 lbs before surgery,, I got to 17 and now I’m back to 13,, I can’t focus on my diet and I’m really worried she will cancel my surgery if I don’t get back up to my 20 lb Mark, HELP!!




I actually gained a lot leading up to finally getting a surgery date. My first weigh in I was 209 and last week I weighed in at 229, so I feel your struggle. With that said though, I started my pre-op liquid diet on Saturday and I am already down 5 pounds. Hoping for a big loss before surgery on 1/2/18 because my NUT literally went nuts when she saw the gain. Hang in there. We’ve got this! Our eye is on the prize!

I am also booked for the 12th! How exciting! Although I’m getting the mini rny. My surgeon suggested it because I’m considered “underweight”

i'm also scheduled on January 2nd. day two for me on the liquid diet, feeling a bit tired but praying to get through it. What other steps is everyone doing to prepare for this life changing tool?

Just did my pre-op appointment ready for 1/3!!!

My final appointment with the surgeon is Jan 15. I guess I'll get my date then. At my very 1st appointment in October she had estimated late Jan, early Feb for surgery.... So that's still right.



I know my Dr only expects two days pre-op diet. So yeah so different then alot of others.

I do not have any type of pre op liquid diet


The practice I go to has us do 3 weeks starch free, then 2 days clear liquids.
