Hi everyone! My date is Sept. 16th. On day 3 of the Pre-Op diet. This is so hard! But I have definitely stayed determined and focused no matter how cranky or tired I get. Also, has anyone had a pickle on this diet? I have heard very mixed responses. Can't wait for this liquid diet to be done. lol

This liquid diet is bruuutal. I'm on day 4 of 5 and I'm so hungry. The other days were filled with head hunger and sucked in their own way. But today...omg my stomach just keeps growling.

It is so Brutal! But a few days out of our lives will be SO worth it once we're on the other side of this journey! Stay strong!

I’m curious to hear the answer to this too, I had a bite of a pickle on day three of my pre-op. I couldn’t help it I wanted something that I can chew on. But I haven’t done it again. Lol. I think I read that the risk is due to the high salt content.

Too all those now on their pre-op diets...I am on Day 17 of my pre-op diet. You read that correctly, Day 17. I have to do a 28 day liver shrinking diet. 4 Protein Shakes, 1 lean and green meal, and 1 serving of sugar free jell-o. No matter what your pre-op diet, it gets better! The first 3 days were tough, but now I am smooth sailing through it!

11 days to go for me! Pre-op surgeon visit this Friday and medical clearance with my primary on Monday.

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

        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!!
