KristenLe 5,979 Posted October 10, 2016 It's very normal to be scared. Just remember that your surgical Team will take good care of you. Follow the instructions and you'll be good! Prayers! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
The New Kel 1,312 Posted October 10, 2016 @@ella37, I think it's normal to be scared! I was too. But the funny thing is, once I was wheeled into the OR, I was out within a minute! Next thng I knew, I was awake and it was over! Just consider the operation an hour nap! :-D Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sent from my SM-G900V using the BariatricPal App From what I've read the nerves about making the wrong decision are normal, but of course you should think it through. I didn't follow my liquid diet completely until today and yesterday. Honestly my doc didn't seem to worried about it. He basically said, "try your best". I had a few servings of tuna throughout the week. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
