Are there any 3 wks post-ops out there???

Hey there,

Just noticed that this board is pretty quiet!  I am 3 wks post-op and wondering if anyone is at the same point as me or close in this journey? 

Hey there,

I am 3 weeks pre-op and like you said this board is very quiet, but I would love to talk to someone who can relate to what I am going through and answer some of my questions. Right now I am on my 4th day of Opti Fast, and it's a challenge. I am hungry, especially in the evening. I thought the shakes would have been more filling. I am trying to keep busy to keep my mind off the hunger, but man is it ever hard when I have to prepare meals for my 4 yr old son. Do you have any tips on what got you through this process?

 

Hey there,

I can safely say that the pre-op diet was the hardest part of the process. Optifast is disgusting! I used lots of ice and blocked my nose and chugged! I only used the Chocolate. But it will be over before you know it. I was on it for 3 weeks and lost 12 lbs. You won't be hungry after your surgery trust me! In box me anytimem. Good luck and keep me posted!
