Pre-Op Diet Starts Tnrw!

[traceylynn 33]

Hey everyone!so I start my two week liquid diet tmrw and im feeling mixed emotions.scared,to let go of food as its been there for me through everything in my life!and yet excited because I know I'm that much closer to my surgery date of July 25th.im also feeling a bit anxious because my patient advocate recently told me to get a more recent letter of consent from my cardiologist!2 weeks before surgery and they just tell me now!my cardiologist claims they don't have me on file for even being there at all...WHAT?!?! Surgeons office should be able to work something out I hope but I hoppe this little bump in the road doesn't mess up my surgery date as this has been a 9 month process for me:/

Congrats! You're well on your way. I will say that the first couple of days of my pre-op diet were really tough for me because I was hungry and wanted to eat something solid. However, it just became my new normal after that and the rest of the pre-op diet really wasn't that bad. Once you wake up from surgery, you probably won't want any food anyway, so your relationship with food will begin adjusting naturally. Good luck!!

There were many tests that they took originally that were requested of me just before surgery again.
