Reviews you can trust, from real people like you.      
How it works
  • Our highly-trained Review Moderation team evaluates all reviews before they're published to ensure they're written by people like you and not a member of a doctor's office.
  • This multi-step process takes up to 24 hours from review submission to publication.
  • Doctors can't pay to have reviews removed or hidden.
  • Reviews are only removed at the reviewer's request or if they violate our Terms of Service.

If you have questions or believe we should re-evaluate a published review, let us know.

10 days post op... stall

Been on water, disgusting vitamins, loathsome premier protein shakes, and broth for 10 days. For the last 3 days I've been itching outta my mind on my stomach until I woke up yesterday with my entire face swollen covered in an itchy rash. Called the surgeon he told me to call my primary physician. I'll have an update tomorrow. Can't sleep through the night, nor have I been able to since the surgery. I haven't lost one single pound since the surgery 10 days ago. I walk 1 hour every day. No change on the scale nor my clothing. Wondering was it worth it.

2 weeks pre-op liquid diet hell

What's funny is I always never see anyone discuss the pre-op liquid diet but they should. I'm only on day three and I'm going thru hell. I'm always hungry. I can't find anything that's acceptable to eat. It's a struggle to say the least. No fruit, no oil, no sugar, no bread, no starch or starchy vegetables, no meat, no juice, no drink, no coffee, no carrots, no tomatoes, and no salt. What does one eat? Then the day before surgery is clear liquids only. I lost 15 lbs by today.... day 3 just from following this diet. 12 more days to go. This shall be a challenge.

September 29th surgery date

I'm excited. Can't wait. Liquid diet starts on September 15th.
