MarvyMimi 61 Posted July 21, 2014 Hi everyone. Well it is almost here. Tomorrow is my surgery. I have been fortunate as my surgeon only requires two days of Clear Liquids prior to surgery. I do admit I am hungry but it hasn't been too bad. I am nervous yet excited. All of the positive comments here have helped me so much and I really appreciate them. I will keep you posted as I continue on this journey. Thanks again to all of you! 1 nickybad reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Colleen C 169 Posted July 21, 2014 I wish you success! Good luck tomorrow, I hope it all goes well. As for the pre-op diet, Now that it is over, I am glad I did it for the two weeks, nothing but shakes, broth and SF Jello. It was so hard but dropped over 20 lbs so to me it ended up helpful. I would not have said that in the middle of it though while going through the detox/withdrawals. It was so hard. Please keep us all posted on your surgery and success!
