I've heard from others that the hardest thing for them was the pre op diet. I really do think you need every ounce of mental strength to get through it. Dog deeper and find that fighter and win.

Sounded way more preachy than I intended lol

Hi irish, im sure you will get motivated from this site i know i have! If i let myself down i would feel like ive let the people on here down too who have supported me, its great motivation!theres a few of us due in the next few weeks!!
Stick with your pre op diet you can do it!!

I'm getting banded on Wednesday. The pre op is second nature now. My hubby just walked through the door with a packet of twix. A couple of weeks ago my mouth would have been watering. I honestly was not bothered nor when he scoffed a chicken fried rice the other night

Good luck with your pre op stage..,your big day will be here before you know it xx

Ha ha, I'm just puffed oot with daily battle of food, too much food , self loathing, feeling a failure so back to the food...exhausting :-(

A week tomorrow Sam, it will soon be here, mine is in the afternoon so i will have all morning to pace around.
The diet is still going well, im really thirsty though, and im drinking plenty but just want to drink, i dont want to drown so am taking it easy, has about 2.5 litres of water today.
Im feeling quite hungry today not too bad but think its because im tired.

Nearly there everyone!!

Yip

 

[irishlady2014]

Same hear ladies sooo thisty.... nearly there now ..... made the fatal mistake of getting on the scales today not a lb down i was devastated because i have been sticking to the meal replacement shakes i dont know possibly holding water might up my intake tomorrow.....

 

[irishlady2014]

Good luck for tomorrow kursty i will be thinking of you i know wharlt you mean abt the food its crazy the mind games it plays with us.

Thanks Irish

Hi Sam, don't worry about the scales, I had a few days last week where I dropped nothing then 3lb in one day. I have lost 13lb so far which is more that I had hoped for by the operation date and I still have 6 days left on the diet like you. Just hang on in there.

well done! that sounds like a fab weight loss! How are you feeling as the day gets closer? I imagine it is scary and exciting at the same time? Best of luck!
