June Surgery

[VEGAN ME 117]

Hi, I am June 6th yipppeeee

Good luck everyone! I am supposed to start my liver shrinking diet June 1 but am planning on starting a few days early to make up for some food funerals. I'm having real fears about being able to do this (give up the food). I was doing really well on the medically supervised diet until recently. My surgeon allows coffee but am thinking maybe I should cut it out. Anyway, after researching and waiting for so long now that it's almost here it seems unreal.

We really have a whole bunch of folks having June Bypass Surgery. That's great. Let's keep in touch and support each other. I have my Clear liquid day starting Monday and Tuesday. Tuesday I will also do a bowel prep with a bottle of Mag Citrate.

I feel like I've got a bunch of stuff to get "organized", so here's my tip for all so far.

Take a day or two off before Surgery. I wish I had done that. I'm working tonight and Monday night. I'll need to sleep some on Tuesday Morning which doesn't give me a lot of time on Tuesday to get ready!

@@Lemm61 Good idea on taking off before surgery. I am Tuesday, June 7, so taking off the Monday before, plus the weekend to make sure my house is ready and I am rested for surgery. Want to give myself every chance for success. No pre-op diet, so just eating healthily, with a few scattered food funerals. Good luck with your bedroom reno - post pics when you can.

I'm june 29,2016 Is anyone having trouble with smoking? And if so will you call your surgery off if you can't quit in 6 weeks??

I don't have my surgery date yet...but quitting smoking is the hardest thing for me!!!! My surgeon tests for nicotine and would cancel surgery....I have to quit!

Good luck @@BrittBritt I'll be right there with ya!

Ugh, Clear Liquids when you're working a 12 hr Shift is not great, but I'm gonna put on my big girl panties and power through.
