Nervous

Well, my last visit of my 6th month supervised weight loss visits is Friday. I'm thinking about going ahead and starting my 2 week pre-op diet on my own tomorrow, thinking I'll be one step ahead. When I go on Friday, he would start me on the 2 week pre-op then but I thought if I go ahead and start tomorrow, when I go Friday for my last visit, we will be ready to submit the final paperwork to my insurance for approval. The doctor seems to think it won't take the insurance very long (maybe a week). So, if I have to do a 2 week pre-op diet, I'll have one week over and if my insurance comes back quick maybe I'll only have to wait one more week of dieting instead of 2 more. What does everyone think? Good idea? Bad idea? I'm so excited and I just want to be ready as soon as the insurance gives final approval. Does this make sense? But, I'm nervous about this whole liquid 2 week pre-op diet. Can I do it?? I have to do it. My life depends on it. But 2 whole weeks of nothing but liquids without having the surgery seems so hard. Any advice and/or words of encouragement are greatly appreciated.

You will do fine. The first 2 -3 days are the hardest. After that it becomes a lot easier. It is really mind over matter. I started my pre op diet on Christmas eve. if I can do it anyone can. Good luck on your journey and feel free to ask questions. I was nervous as well!!!

like it was said above, it will get easier. Just keep your mind on the prize and think of what you are doing for your health and your future! good luck and hopefully your insurance company will be fast!
