October List of Surgery's

[WillieBradley 70]

Mine is at 10:30am Thursday. I have the sugar free Popsicles too. But unfortunately for me it's not taking away my desire to eat real food. I'm all in now so I can't look back. Let's go strong for the next 3 days and we will be happy when it's over with. I can't even sleep I'm so nervous about this surgery.

I feel like I am at a stand still and I'm hoping I haven't messed things up for me. I say go big or go home. We got this!!

[WillieBradley 70]

im with ya!! We can do this!! I'm going to eat a Popsicle!

You haven't messed anything up. You will be fine.

[kvoneye 210]

I wanted to wish all of you good luck on your surgery tomorrow. Hope your liquid diet went ok. I also wanted to wish you a smooth and non complicated recovery. Please keep us posted on how you're doing....and I'll do the same.

So far I'm still excited, not nervous yet. However, I think I'm getting a sore throat. I wonder if they'll cancel my surgery???? What do you all think?

Thanks

[kvoneye 210]

I don't think they'll cancel it. I'm guessing you'll have some sort of an antibiotic before or afterwards. Good luck

Thank you so much @@kvoneye

I so agree! I am day 6 preop. I would kill for roasted chicken. I am totally not craving sweets. Between the shakes and bars I am over sweets!!! Hang in there! I have 8 more days. It is taking so much willpower and prayer. We went to a party yesterday with food and drinks.... Ummm I survived and felt so strong about it. It was a day and I keep thinking this is TEMPORARY. I will get to eat again!

[WillieBradley 70]

I keep telling myself that too. I'm 3 days away from surgery. Not craving any sweets. It's the chicken. I am a meat eater but I usually eat lean white meat. However, I think since my body knows I'm changing the routine, it craves everything I shouldn't be eating. @ I could totally go for some roasted chicken too! But like @@kvoneye said "We Got This!"

What struggling through preop diet?

[WillieBradley 70]

@@chavonjb it's tough. My surgeon's staff said it was the first few days that are rough, but for me the whole 2 weeks are almost unbearable. I know I shouldn't be complaining because it's a means to an end, and a life changer for the better, but the struggle through prep is REAL!! You are not alone.
