madisonPA 29 Posted May 20, 2012 LoL.....Im a little over 3 weeks away and I feel the same way!! Yes, you should have brought your chewable/liquid Vitamins, Protein Shakes, Water, gatorate ect. Time will be here before you know it. Are you doing a pre-op liquid diet too?? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bigfluffsmom 5 Posted May 20, 2012 My op is June 20th and the surgeon wants me to lose 14 lb by then. If it was that easy I wouldn't be having the surgery eh ? Did you guys have to do a special diet beforehand ? I don't think we do a liquid diet pre-op in the uk. 1 Amytequilahouse reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

LovetheBeach 3 Posted May 22, 2012 So, I am heading out this weekend to get everything I need. I did not have to be on a pre-op diet. I already eat a very low carb diet now so the dr felt that was great! I didn't have to lose anything before I had the surgery however I decided I wanted to and lost 30lbs. I am keeping the surgery a secret to most so I want them to think I am just losing more weight. I also know the more weight the healthier I am on that operation table and that is important to me. Almost a week away and I am ready and very nervous. What is the scariest thing about the surgery to you guys? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
madisonPA 29 Posted May 22, 2012 I havent told any of my family members so the scariest thing is something going wrong during the procedure and they find out that way. :-/ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
