5 Days And A Wake-Up

[NCsleever63 53]

I am almost there!. I am now on day 10 of the all liquid diet, and I have to say, its going easier than I thought it would. I had pre-op at the hospital yesterday, met with surgeon. Things are on mission GO!. I keep thinking that I should be more nerveous, but Im not. For the first time in a long time I feel in control, I feel like I have a grip on it and I am so ready!. All of us deserves a fresh start and I just cant wait till 10:30 AM on August 15th. Thank you all for the support!

Awww so close to your big day! So excited for you. Nice to hear the positive attitude through your liquid diet phase. Your focusing on the end goal quite nicely and that will help you through the first few weeks after too from what I've read good luck!

Thank you, all of you @Shape_Shifter, you are right, that is a very good comparsion. I know that all of us are on this journey and honestly, this site alone has helped me so much with the support and knowing what others are going through too. Its a great feeling to know your not alone. One huge thing for me, is my two close friends at work decided to do the protien shakes as Meal Replacement for Breakfast and lunch ( I told them they had to eat dinner) and they have lost weight and are so happy. So if you can get a buddy to do some of it with you, it really makes a difference. We gather in the breakroom in the AM and lunch, I break out the magic bullet and we make shakes, we laugh and talk about different flavors, they have really made a difference in my attitude about this whole thing.

We all have our journey, its so nice to be on it with so many others.

I was telling my husband how nervous I was and compared it to the anticipation of childbirth for the first time...it's probably going to hurt like h*ll but will have a beautiful ending!

Childbirth was worse. You don't get to "sleep" through the birth and wake up on the good pain meds! lol I didn't have that much pain (or i had very good meds). You will be fine!
