Just needed to hop on here today for some reassurance....My surgery is set for this Wednesday; 12/12/12 @ 12pm. I'm getting nervous and cold feet. This site really helps me feel good about this life changing decision because I see so many others who've gone through this and are successful, healthy and thriving... Any wise words of encouragement or advice? Any and all will be greatly appreciated... 48 hours to go EEEEEEK

Thanks so much Ladies, this is a huge help! Much appreciated These ideas are super helpful.. @worm2872 -- I love your shot glass idea, how clever...definitely hopping on that wagon. Also, where do you buy your unjury? Do you order it online or have you found store that sells it?

Great suggestions Kisersassy! Thanks so much! It's just a couple weeks away now and I'm starting to get a wee bit nervous...any particular recommendations for protein supplements/powders?

My surgery is scheduled for 12/12/12...what do I need to make sure to go out and buy before my surgery and have stocked in my house so I can avoid a big trip to the store post-op...Any suggestions are welcome...anything from foods (liquids) I should get, comfort items, supplements..etc. Any pointers on things that helped y'all survive the liquid/pureed diet (my surgeon wants on pureed diet for 8 weeks post-op) so any tips on what you found to offer a better variety from the run-of-the-mill Protein shakes would be greatly appreciated. Especially ideas for something for a more 'savory' type pureed food, because I imagine I'll tire quickly of the fruity/sweet Protein shake flavors... Any insight is greatly appreciated, since I don't have any close personal friends or family who have gone through this before... Thanks!!
