3 Days until surgery!

I'm on the 7th day of the liquid pre-op diet. I have 3 more days to go! I am feeling a little more hungrier today than other days, and I spoke with my dietitian and she said I could have maximum of 80g of carbs and 20g of fat, total. I was limiting myself to 20g carbs and 10g fat. No wonder I don't have any energy.

 

I would increase the intake but I only have 3 days left so I might not, and I'm worried it'll make my liver too large. But I'm also worried I may be ruining it for myself by only consuming 500 calories... like my body will get used to the lesser calories and refuse to lose weight when I get the band.

 

I've also been reading up on horror stories regarding the band, and I'm getting worried and almost doubtful that the band will actually work for me. I really cannot imagine myself being thin, it feels like I'm just fooling myself, wishful thinking..

 

Well only 3 days left until my surgery, only time will tell!

Don't worry you are having the last minute "jitters"! Everyone goes thru it!! I personally think that you are doing fine if you continue the regimen for the next 3 days as you have been..to me it shows you will power and determination. You will be on clear liquids after surgery which will be less than what you are on now. You need to stay focused on the big picture and believe in yourself! YOU CAN DO IT!!! I am doing it! I have lost 96 lbs in 7 months..I have 30 lbs to go!! If I can do it so can you!!! I wish you the very best in your journey! If you have any questions or would like any further support please do not hesitate to send me a PM! I am usually online!!
