Less than a month away! Thoughts,feelings, pre op?

All I've been able to think about is the fact that my surgery isn't until 2pm on June 9th. I do a clear liquid diet the day before and then nothing after midnight. How the heck am I going to make it to 2pm without anything to eat or drink?!?! Holy crap! I get shaky when I don't eat Breakfast. I really don't know what I"m going to do and I'm very worried.

Carrie,

I don't think I'd be able to eat if my surgery wasn't until 2pm! I think I'd be too nervous to begin with. Maybe if you plan something right now it won't be too bad. Like rent a really good movie, or play some games on the computer. Maybe even spend some time looking at success stories here in the forums!

I'm feeling very fortunate that my surgery is @ 7:30 am! If I can sleep the night before I won't have too much down time to fret that day.

OK this is random but I have been imagining doing my favorite things in puree form. I have decided I could do a relatively low fat puree of tortilla Soup and dump a flavorless Protein mix in and have a good meal once we get to that stage. Obviously the tortilla part wouldn't be in it though.

It helps me to think creatively through a problem. I love spicy food and am having a hard time imagining too long (or a life time without it). Oh and frozen margaritas. Can you mix Protein Powder in one of them?!!:biggrin: Forgive me ladies I have quite this jolly sense of humour! Just trying to cheer myself up about spend ALL DAY LONG just about at the hospital waiting around for pre-op stuff.

Praying all goes well and I am on schedule lucky 13!
