2013newme 42 Posted January 1, 2013 I am new to the site, though I have been watching posts by others for a couple of months! I find it encouraging to see others posting and working together when they have the same or similar surgery dates... it's like going through it with a partner! I am nervous, excited, scared, happy - a whole host of emotions! I am starting to get myself, house, family organized for my big day! There is so much planning that goes on - it's overwhelming! I begin my liquid diet - 1200 calories/day on Saturday... and need to hit the grocery store to stock up on all the post-op "foods". Let me know what you are doing to prepare for the big day - maybe we can share some tips with each other! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
