getting a little nervous



Recommended Posts

I got preregistered with the hospital today. Tomorrow is all the preop stuff at the doctors office. Should get a phone call tomorrow about what time to report to the hospital on Monday. Still wondering if I'm crazy or just down to my last option and don't care anymore?

Try to stay calm. You aren't going into this lightly. You have been prepping for this for a while, and now you are finally here. It is normal to get the jitters prior to anything major like this. You will do great, and you are making the best choice for your health, and for your future! Good luck! You will do great! ;)

Glad i'm not alone here. I am back and forth on this and second guessing myself constantly. Sometimes I actually sweat a little over it when the enormity hits me. But I want to put one thing in your head now that has worked for me. Whenever I'm in panic mode over what I'm about to do, i imagine that this surgery isn't even available - and that really panics me. Imagine you don't even have this option. For the foreseeable future - all you have is either get bigger or join weight watchers, or Jenny Craig - that is even scarier than the surgery !! - good luck

      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.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
