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.

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
