Congrats @@RKS1983WI are you getting excited?

[rny_9_14_15 8]

When is yours rks1983wi

[RKS1983WI 49]

Yes! It can't come soon enough, I'm excited, nervous, scared.. soo many emotions. I got my approval and cried throughout the day, I knew I would cry if I was denied, never expected to cry for an approval. Do you have a 2 week pre op liquid diet?

@@RKS1983WI I can totally relate! I have a mix of emotions ever since getting my surgery date. I was one of the very fortunate ones that didn't have a diet to follow for an extended period of time. So I had my informational session, consult with the surgeon and got my surgery date and all other appointment dates in the matter of 4 days. I didn't know what to expect, but I certainly didn't expect that! So since then I have been predominently excited but I do randomly burst into tears over concerns, or over the idea of just how different things will be. Overall though I am sooo excited and can hardly wait. I don't have a w week preop diet, but I do need to lose another 10-15lbs before surgery so I am basically sticking to a liquid diet for the most part. My surgeon only requires a 3 day preop diet, but I figured I would do it for a week.

I have a 3 week one i don't know why.. i cried when i was approved at work too at least i was on break lol. I knew if i was denied i wouldnt know what to do... and congratulations on the date its a week after mine surgery buddies

Yayy!! I have been following a very low carb diet and I will say I was not at all prepared for how grumpy this would make me. I don't know if it's tge lower carbs, hormone changes or what but I do know I have 0 patience and want to smack people a majority of my days.. LOL

[RKS1983WI 49]

Wow 3 weeks! Is it pretty strict? I can have 4-5 shakes a day 2 cups of broth 1/2 cup Tomato juice, SF Jello and SF popsicles, lots of Water and drinks like crystal light, v8 splash, fruit 2o etc. We can do this!!!

[rny_9_14_15 8]

Yes it is the same as a regular one she said with mine being so long i can have like a fish or a small piece of chicken for dinners .. broth Jello sf popsicles and water.. but shakes galore and I'm ok with that i haven't had a shake i havent liked yet so im ok with that just want this month over!

[RKS1983WI 49]

That should definitely help having fish etc. Being 3 wks. Good luck! I have found my ninja blender to be my best friend with the shakes, I feel more satisfied with them blended with ice, like I'm getting something a bit more substantial lol, I'm hoping that helps on my all liquid!
