kicking sugar

[Calgalintx 26]

So, is it going to be easier to kick sugar out of my life prior to surgery or after?

I am leaning towards after, since i won't be eating, and only mu liquids and purees for quite some time. I think I would be just miserable if I attempted to go completely off at this point. I of course have reduced, but not 100%.

Before! I had sugar withdrawal. I was sleepy, unkind and just kinda out of control.
It's still not easy after my sleeve. I have now stopped again. At least my anti-depression and anxiety meds will help me blance.

I think its truly easier prior. Detox while you can focus on one thing at a time. Good Luck 💜

I think it would be easier prior to get used to what to expect after and do it slowly to avoid withdrawals. I practiced pre-op on how to eat post-op

thanks everyone. Of course not the answers I wanted to hear, but I guess I knew the correct answer in my head. It's great to get support from you all,

Since youre having bypass Id have to say before. I had sleeve and when my gherlin hormone disappeared for 6 months postop I had no problem giving up sugar. Then like an idiot I let it back in and now I'm on the struggle bus again.
