kim070682 22 Posted July 19, 2013 My date is July 31st and I am so ready. The pre op diet is tough but I think my mind set is, Lets do this! I have a very supportive husband and 3 kids that don't really know what is going on!!! I am so excited, I can hardly wait!!! I am a little nervous of being off work for 13 days then getting thrown back in, in the swing of things! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Patti K 98 Posted July 20, 2013 My bf expects me to cook for him and run and get him food in the drive theu during my liquid diet...AFTER he said he would do it with me cuz he couldnt bear to eat in front of me. Actions are louder than words! He sees nothing wrong with making me smell and handle food. He refuses to eat what his nephew makes. Grrrrrrrr Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

juswant2bhealthy 33 Posted July 20, 2013 Ladies I'm so excited I'm looking forward to getting off some of the blood pressure meds. I won't have to worry about diabetes a couple of times I've been borderline. Now if I can get my thyroid levels in a normal range ill be even happier. I start my pre-op liquid diet on the 24th. This weekend I plan to have me a slice of red velvet cheese cake for the last time. My doctor requires that I stay in the hospital overnight I've been praying that I don't have any complications. I was told the key to start healing process is walking so I plan on walking walking. I know I'm all over the place in this post I just have so much on my mind.
