Omg Surgery Is Tomorrow...im So Nervous!



Recommended Posts

Well tomorrow is the day and I'm extremely nervous. I still can't believe I have made the decision to have this procedure done but I am excited and I'm looking forward to living a new and healthier lifestyle. I hope and pray everything goes well. I'm sending my blessings to everyone who's has a surgery date coming up as well! Good luck Sleevers:-)

For me, this is the hardest part. the fear, the anxiety, the not knowing. You will make it past the threshold into The Big Loser's Club and succeed at getting skinny as well as healthier. Sending you positive healing energy your way! Please keep us posted so we can support you. ;)

Congrats!!! Good luck tomorrow you will do great. I recommend laying down and getting up several times today, cause you'll miss it for awhile untill the soreness is gone.

Good luck to you! If you start crying, it's totally normal. It's fear of the unknown. But it'll change your life, for sure! Best always!

I am scheduled at 11:30 am tomorrow as well. I may be nervous tomorrow but now just hungry. Been on Clear Liquids since midnight last night and nothing after midnight tonight. Been sucking on a piece of rhubarb with a little salt. I know the salt is bad but it satisfies the hunger.

You will be a rock star. You'll black out for a bit, wake up on lovely meds and you won't even remember it. I had so much anxiety. 4 months and I only regret not exercising more...my eating is so under control and feel great. I had no complications and could have gone home same day. Mild pain, was off IV the day after...up and walking. Drinking was weird, but it all went in comfortably. Just gradually ate more ang here I am. Sw 202 cw 170 after 4 months

      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.
