WickedBeauty 87 Posted April 21, 2014 Well, day 7 of 14 of my preop diet has come and gone. It's been touch and go the past few days, but I won't complain. Each day I wake up feeling lighter and try to use that as my motivation to stay on track. Getting more anxious and excited by the minute. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MissTrish14 44 Posted April 21, 2014 So today as I should be doing homework but couldnt focus so started reading over my paperwork for my procedure. I see they will have me listed as NPO (no food or drink) for 24 hours. Oh really so they are going to give me meds and no food. I just got scared. My stomach is so sensitive if I have asprin on a empty stomach I will vomit. No worries you will be hydrated by IV. Aspirin is an irritant to the stomach. So it is understood that aspirin on an empty stomach would make you ill. Stop worrying. It will be ok. This is what we all have been planning for. You can do this! Rest tonight, the new you begins tomorrow Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

freels123 10 Posted April 21, 2014 I'm the 21st as well. I live just north of chattanooga. Where! Are you? I am having surgery on the 21st as well, and I grew up in Athens, tn. I currently live in Kingsport, Tn. I originally had my done in Dalton with Dr. Jaime Ponce. I love Hamilton Place. Where do you live? Is your Doctor? How old are you? I am 28. I'm actually having mine at Blount Memorial in Maryville. My friend works for Dr Johnathan Ray and he was also her surgeon. So I decided to do it there. We live in Georgetown it's about 25 minutes from Hamilton place. I am 34. Good luck tomorrow!! Keep in touch we can support each other! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
