Hard to not do the googling thing. I totally feel ya on that. I made myself stop and decided to leave it in God's and my hands how this decision to take my life back goes. Stay strong and take comfort in all the great people here on these boards.

Am I Crazy!?!
eeyoregirl1970 replied to newlife4leah's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I totally get it. You are ready for new way of living and excited to get started. It is a long time to do it though. I have to admit I tried but didn't do that great until I got over that last meal syndrome thing. I am on my one week Pre op and it is tough so do what is best for you and good luck. -
I always thought the same. Glad to hear it does provide a good workout. Thinking of trying it too after I'm up and about again post op.

I am on day 1 and feel a bit tired with a headache. I hope by day3 I get some energy back like you. Can't wait to see more on this. -
Getting started on things I will need in a few weeks. Trying to get a bunch of different basics since I am not sure how tastes will change. Any suggestions from folks who have done this?

Pre op officially starts Wednesday. I am almost ready to just go start now. Can't wait but am dreading the Pre op diet if that makes any sense. I am so looking forward to beginning yet getting more trepidatious. Oh the emotional roller coaster. How are you holding up my fellow Novemberites.? -
Just dropping in on my Nov surgery peeps. So glad to have that sense of comradery. One week til Pre op diet. Making bad eating choices and oddly enough not enjoying them. I think my body is ready to get going on the healthy stuff.

Marta, I hope it gets better. Our surgery dates are the same but I only have a 7 day Pre op diet. I am more worried about doing well on that than how I will do after. Great idea to walk. I feel I may need to sleep through most of mine to make it. Keep us posted on how you are doing. This is a great support place.

Wow. Sounds like it all happened so fast. That is an amazing NSV.

My surgery is November 8. So I've been thinking about some foods for the early stages. I was wondering if I could strain the veggies from hot and sour soup and just enjoy the spicy broth. Anyone ever try it?
