Tomorrow is the big day!



Recommended Posts

Hello all!

So tomorrow is my big day!!! I've been having so many mixed emotions tho. I'm like happy and excited one minute and then the next nervous and scared. Not really scared about surgery but more so what to truly expect after. I have read lots about what to expect and watch watched people's vlogs, but I'm like every body is different and I wonder how mine will react. And I don't know if this is just me but has anyone thought what it this doesn't work? Have there been cases where it hasn't worked?

You will be fine. I went through many of the same emotions. And then when I hit that two-week stall, I was depressed, but it passes. I'm now 4 weeks out, and doing great. My recovery was very uneventful, thankfully. Try not to stress to much about it. If you follow the plan, it WILL work :)

Best of luck to you tomorrow!

Oh wow your four weeks out? Are you on the mushy food phase? I have been on the liquid diet for two weeks before surgery and I have been so emotionally hungry! Thanks for the kind words :)

Yes, I'm on limited soft foods: cottage cheese, refried Beans, mushed veggies, oatmeal/cream of wheat, greek yogurt. I get to go to the next phase in 10 days.

I was on a 2 week pre-packaged food diet pre-op.

Don't worry, your hunger will disappear after surgery; at least, MINE did. Now I eat because I HAVE to...or because I WANT to.

All that you are feeling is normal! Keep your eye on the goal. You will be fine! 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.
