Start liquid diet 4/1/2014

[Shawn M 2]

Well I'm almost 2 weeks out for surgery. It's been a long journey to get to this point. I've been researching and considering bariatric surgery for over 3 years and I'm almost at the door. Feeling a little nervous and scared. First major surgery I've ever had. I'm 44 and weigh almost 500 lbs. I'm looking forward to getting my life back and enjoying the simple things that so many take for granted.

This is an exciting but nerve wrecking journey. I am on day 3 of my 2 week pre-op diet and my surgery is on April 4th. You are making such a positive life changing decision. Good luck to you during your WLS journey.

I keep reading about two week pre op diets but my doc is only requiring me to be on liquid diet 3 days before my surgery....which happens to begin on Easter Sunday!! Hah My surgery is scheduled for April 23rd. Good luck with it I hope all goes well for you! I am going to get nervous as it gets closer! Ugh!
