You are not the only one... Think about why you want this and PUSH yourself..... When you get down Think about what you want this surgery for.... I realized not only is the preop diet shrinking the liver as you lose weight its also training your mind and body for whats coming after surgery..... When I was on the preop diet I felt like giving up... I prayed constantly and thats how I KEPT my STRENGTH.. Keep yourself busy.... STAY FOCUSED ON THE PRIZE.... You have came too far to turn back..... You only have 4 Days left and then u will have a small stomach and it will be easier.... I had surgery on Oct. 10 I went in for my postop appt. Today and im down 26 pounds since my preop appt..... Less than a month... I lost 22 pounds since surgery... I had a battle after surgery and didnt know what to expect when I got on the scale this morning...... But hearing those numbers today confirmed I made the right decision to go ahead with surgery.... I wish you the best and I know you got this .... keep me posted......
