okay so its 930 and i just got up not a big deal but i went to bed at 730 last night. im on day 4 of pre op liquids and all i want to do is sleep is this normal? I dont know if it just lack of energy or if im depressed my surgery is the 22nd and im super excited i just wish i had something to do to occupy my time or distract me even. there are about a ton of things that need to be done around the house but i dont seem to have the energy to do any of them. My dog has a vet apt today and i intentionaly scheduled it in the middle of the day so i would have to get up and shower and have something to do. Any ideas on how i can get myself motivated and out of bed?

I would recommend looking at your approved list of what you can ingest and figure out what has the most protein and focus on getting as much of that in your system as possible. You are sluggish and tired because your body is missing the carbs (they're addicting afterall). You can beat this - just don't give in. Protein will help give energy and feed your muscles - which will create more energy. Love the protein...

You can do this!

And good idea on setting the vet appt as you did. Do you have any crafts or hobbies? Focus on things like that. Or Christmas - wrapping - I have tons of stuff to wrap if you want me to bring it over...
