Tomorrow is D-Day, anxiously nervous



Recommended Posts

Well tomorrow is IT. I'm excited and nervous. Nervous about going through the procedure and not knowing what to expect afterwards but excited to start my new journey. I can' t wait to look back a year from now and think, wow I've done this! I know there will be many ups and downs but I know in the end it will be worth it to be healthy and happy! Any last words of advice for calming the nerves?? Thx all!

I would say anxious, nervous, plus excited equals completely normal! Best wishes on your surgery. We all had those feelings just before. Come back and let us know how things go.

I'm having surgery tomorrow as well. I am also nervous and excited. I think those are great emotions. This is a major life change we are embarking on. If we had no emotion something would be seriously wrong I think lol. Best of luck to you tomorrow!!

My surgery is at 7:30 am. They said he likes to be early so if it goes up they'll call me today. I'm glad it's somewhat early this 5 day liquid diet has been challenging. What time is your surgery?

Mine is at 7:30 too! I have to be there at 6. I know what you mean about the liquid diet! Is yours strictly liquid or do u get a small meal at night? My diet was 2 weeks and consisyed of a shake at Breakfast and lunch and then a weight watcher meal at night. Today im on strictly Clear Liquids.< /p>

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
