melmel11 30 Posted August 4, 2013 Lol. I wasn't nervous until this morning when my fiancé and I were making plans for something and I realized that my preop diet starts in just about 2 weeks. That's when it hit home that its going to happen and happen soon. I think I'm more nervous about how I'm going to manage on a 2 week liquid diet without killing anymore more than I am about the actual surgery. What Bout you? You must be so anxious to get a date already! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jennyjenny2 4 Posted August 4, 2013 Yes I know the 2 week liquid diet is scary:( I also feel like I have been eating really badly lately because im trying to enjoy what is likely to be the last time I will be eating no no foods! I am currently about 347lbs 5"7 height..and hope to lose about 175lbs!!! Its gonna be a long road! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
