My pre op diet starts soon. I don’t like that my brain wants me to eat allll the food because after the pre diet it’s the surgery. Which means new lifestyle.


Does anyone else have this issue?

I had the same issue. I wanted all the foods lol but you’re right it’s a lifestyle change. I had surgery the 6th and it made me realize how much and how often I was eating insane amounts of food. The food restriction is a huge mental game. Even now I’m not hungry but my brain tells me I am and had cravings. We call it head hunger. But don’t worry. I encourage you to indulge your last few days before the liquid diet. It’s honestly really hard so enjoy your last unhealthy supper ;)

Hey everyone - I’m this coming morning in Manhattan- just have insomnia. I also have gastroparesis which makes this interesting. But I want this. Really hope it works out!

Had surgery June 5th, I'm starting to have pain whenever I drink or eat anything, like a sharp pain as the Water flows down. But for the first time in a while I was just able to drink some juice with no pain. And I'm like 12 days out and wondering about my stitches, also I think I'm getting to addicted to the binder. It sucks in my belly so I'm afraid to stop wearing it

35 lbs down 😁

Sorry to hear about your gastroparesis. What advice did your doctor give you to deal with this condition?

I haven't weighed myself once since I started my pre-op diet or even after my gastric bypass surgery four days ago.

        Have a great Wednesday too! Sorry you're hungry all the time, I'm pretty much the same..and I'm sick of eating the same food all the time.

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
