landensmommy10 77 Posted July 18, 2012 I literally cannot wait. Tomorrow @ 1 is my pre op psych appt! Then next Wednesday is my upper endoscopy and then I am DONE! I stocked up on liquid diet foods today and I plan on starting it one week before surgery, Not required by my doctor but I thought that I would do it to mentally and physically prepare, something I decided since reading post from my peers on here But anyways I am so excited and I had to share!!! I have not told anyone besides my mom and my grandma. Anyone else keeping it under wraps?? 1 Cheryl Barfoot reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

landensmommy10 77 Posted July 19, 2012 I bought sugar free Jello, sodium free broths, and my grandma made me some other good broths from scratch. And I've got lots of flavored sugar free drinks and powders. I also have an unflavored Protein Powder i though I would mix into broth or juice or something.

landensmommy10 77 Posted July 21, 2012 Ummm I don't think so.... Pre op stuff like what??? Im in the UK and I think we do things a little different. I have a bunch of pre surgery requirements that have to be done, different blood work, a upper endoscopy, meet with a psychiatrist and a nutritionist, and some even requite a liquid diet two weeks before surgery, luckily mine does not But you have to do all that stuff before they will even schedule you for surgery.
