Pre op visit was today



Recommended Posts

My pre-op visit with my surgeon was today. I start my liquid diet tomorrow and have reached paralyzed fear!! I'm so scared something is going to go wrong! I'm not worried about the pain or sticking with the diet but I'm afraid I'll never wake up again!

I think that is normal but you will regret it if you don't go through with it...it's less than 1% chance of something going wrong...ask the Lord to give you strength and to see you through this surgery, God Bless!!!

I have that same fear, but the fear of doing nothing and dropping dead of a heart attack or some other obesity-related disease is worse.

Best of luck to you!

You know your life path is already drawn. God is in control of everything. Driving to the hospital for your surgery can kill you. If you believe in God put your faith in him. I had no fear of this surgery as my life belongs to God. If it was my time then it was my time. I made it. Easy as closing your eyes and then waking up 2 seconds later. You will be fine. If this surgery scares you think about heart surgery or some other weight related surgery you may end up having to get. You will do great.

I guess we are kind of in the same boat. I start my liquid fast today. It's absolutely common to be nervous. Not everyday will someone go over a procedure like this. But I will say, pray everything will go fine. It's a lot easier to follow the Doctor's order. You will do good.

Thank you everyone! The thought of never seeing my babies again scares me so bad but I have been praying to God to get me through this!

      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.
