Sbagdan 7 Posted December 26, 2014 I did fine except that I am hungry, cranky and in a rather nasty mood. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Adriane5Sims 24 Posted December 26, 2014 Today was definitely my worst day. Rest of pre op diet has gone great. Back on track ASAP though to get ready for the big day Monday. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
aHealthierMe121714 27 Posted December 26, 2014 It was ok. Alf cup of dressing (if that much) & a nice slice of white turkey breast, chewed and ate very slow and savored it! I agree, worst day so far, but was so worth it. Hope I keep the sinus congestion away and tick on until 7 am MONDAY!!!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MamyBeth 27 Posted December 26, 2014 I enjoyed a chocolate mint shake in the morning, drank a cup of chicken bullion while the family ate turkey, and had no problem sticking to my liquid diet. I will be really glad when I get to eat again! I hope y'all had a merry Christmas! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jnfisher 31 Posted December 26, 2014 Getting a cold! Coughing, little sinus drainage and slight sore throat. Praying it goes away and doesn't affect my surgery! I have tried to stay away from everyone so I wouldn't catch anything, .... just my luck!!!!! Send up some prayers!. I am having some of the same issues! Not sure what to do! Can we take any meds? Are u gonna call the doc? Ugh. I don't want this to affect my surgery! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
aHealthierMe121714 27 Posted December 26, 2014 My Dr office closed at noon Christmas Eve and won't be open again until Mon. (but not before I have to be at hospital). Just trying the zinc losenges (NASTY) and Vitamin C drops and stay hydrated. I don't think my Dr will allow anything but Tylenol and that's not going to help!

aHealthierMe121714 27 Posted December 26, 2014 I feel better today than yesterday for sure. It's mostly when I 1st wake up I trying to clear the drainage. My Dr is almost 3 hrs away so we are leaving Sunday and going to spend the night in a hotel. I think I am going to prop up to sleep that night and then before going to the hospital, get a nice hot shower and use one of those effervescent shower things. Used one this morning and it was HEAVEN! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

queensleever05 22 Posted December 26, 2014 Scheduled 12/29/14...I was given my surgery date on 12/19/14 and now on a 1000 calorie diet. I was told to do this in order to shrink the liver. I'm not sure if I've done well or not. For Christmas dinner, I ate a little more than I probably should, but I'll do all liquids for the next few days. I've heard stories of the surgent going in and the liver being too big to operate, so either the patients was closed up and sent back home to lose more weight, or the surgent did a complete open procedure. I dont watn either...I'll weigh myself tomorrow. I'm a little nervous about all of it..more so going under... But I'm excited.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
