Scheduled for Jan 23 and as the days go by, specifically now that it’s nearly January, I am sick with worry and anxiety. I’ve been pretty certain and excited up until this point and now I’m questioning everything. I start my preop diet next week and I’m scared sh!tless that I’m going to mess it up. I’ve been told if I don’t lose 10lb during the 2 week preop diet, the surgeon will not do the surgery. It seems like everything varies from state to state, surgeon to surgeon, so much so that while we’re all going through the same thing, I feel like everyone’s experiences are different so I REALLY don’t know what to expect, and that’s freaking me out even more. Help!
