So i had my pre op on monday 20th and started my pre op diet today tuesday 21st march. I was given a list of foods which i can have small amounts of only allowed to have 800-1000 cals with plenty of liquids. My sister is very supportive as she took my list bought everything for me and is now bulk cooking some meals for me using the guild lines of what i can eat. Day one smashed it....
T: take action
H: have a happy heart
E: expect to succed
J: juggling is never easy at 1st
O: ok sometimes its going to hurt like hell
U: understand who you are and that you are one of the greatest gifts
R: remind yourself that you belive in you
N: never put yourself down
E: eat with your mind
Y: YOU CAN DO THIS!!!
Although my pre op diet isnt that bad only 800 cals per day no fat i have noticed im having a few headaches nothing to bad but im wondering if anyone else has them and why/what can be causing them
As starry says , it's ketosis .. Do you have a penny taste in your mouth ? Peeing like a race horse ? It's also your body getting rid of chemicals you've relied on for a long time .. Just like any addict , your going through detox ...
Plenty of fluids
