2 more days til the big day! Excited yet really nervous! I know I can do this, just ready to get the show on the road! Good luck everyone! My friend has hers tomorrow, wish her luck! I hope my hubby and family are ready for this! There's gonna be a new me in town real soon! Wish me luck the 6th is just right around the corner!

On day 2 of pre-op diet! Today was hard! Stuck through it! Especially hard to cook for my kids and not eat a bite! I got hungry 5-7 pm! Had. Sugar free jello snack and going to have a sugar free Popsicle with the kids after dinner. April 6 will be here soon enough! Can't wait. I know it's not going to be easy but soooo worth it! I am going to feel good on our beach vacation in July and feel great by Christmas! My husband is so supportive and told me today that I will have to buy all new clothes down to my underwear today (him being the tight wad that he is) and he said he can't wait to take me shopping! Good luck everyone, thanks for all the input, it is soooo motivational!

larch, please keep us posted! I am going through True Results in Houston as well! Scheduled for my EGD on the 23rd and surgery on April 6th! Excited but very nervous! The pre-op diet has got me super nervous! I have never been able to stick to a super strick liquid diet! I know it will all be worth it, but I am soooo nervous!

Sounds like pre-op diets vary from dr to dr but mine through True Results is 2weeks and includes 2protein shakes a day and 1meal of 6-8 oz lean meat (basically chicken, fish, or lean beef, 1cup of green veggies(no peas, carrots,potatoes) & 1cup fruit (no bananas)! Any amount of sugar free jello and sugar free Popsicles plus any non carbonated drinks with less than 10 cal/serving and less than 2grams sugar/serving! Sf kook-aid, crystal light, unsweetened tea are unlimited! Doesn't sound that bad but I am preparing myself for it to be one of the hardest things I have ever done! Hope this helps!

I am also on April 6th! Doing my Psych Evaluation on the 16th, EGDon the 23rd, then pre-op diet starts the 24th, which I am really nervous about! Good luck and sorry he killed your buzz! Sometimes I think the hubbies just don't realize how to and not to lend support! So far my hubby has been really supportive but he's a shift worker and not here a lot to help with household and 3kids! I think it's going to be overwhelming at times but my mind is made up! I am not going to fail! Keep posting about where you are in your journey and I'll keep on as well! April 6th can't get here soon enough!

I was just told I need a pre-op psych clearance before my surgery and I've never been to a psychologist/psychiatrist! Anyone know what happens at this visit! Scheduled for April 6 and don't know what to expect!

Thanks for the advice everyone! My appointment is set for the 16th with the one that works with True Results! They wailed me 15 pages of questionnaire for me to fill out and bring to my visit! I feel a little better but still all around nervous! I ordered a Juicer and received it today! I also ordered a book that will be here Friday ! Ready to try some shakes and juice out in preparation of the pre-op diet which starts on the 24th!
