Also i have been on this liquid pre-op diet and have only lost 6 lbs...I have been on this diet for 11 days (including today)...
|
LOL, I have been on the 'Liquid Diet' 5 days, including today. I'M GOING NUTZ ! ! ! . . . This is so much harder then what I thought.
(I think the hunger is more in my head then anything else. I can tell)
In all honesty I really am not expexting to loose anything with the liquid diet thing, but if I do it will be an added bonus.

I was exactly like you. Worrying that something would happen to prevent it. I told my wife that I would relax and accept that I was having it when I was on the bed being wheeled into the OR.
|
Kevin, I feel the same, I keep telling my wife that I can't believe my insuance approved me without issues.

Well today is my last day on the non-loser side!!! Tomorrow I will become a loser!!! I am getting a little more nervous today...but I have planned my day to be very busy!! I am more concerned for my little girl...she has never seen me in the hospital...so she is quite anxious about it all...worried about where she will be and worried about when she can see me...that is probably whats been the hardest on me so far, is her fears...so please keep my little one in your thoughts the rest of this week!! I have 2 people who will inform everyone of my progress...so I'm set!!

Amanda, I'll be thinking about you tomorrow. What time is your surgery? I'm sure you are concerned about your little one but they are very resilient. Once she sees that you are okay she will be fine. I'm sure of it.
Try to get some sleep tonight, but if you can't don't worry too much. You'll be getting a nice nap tomorrow! I'll be looking for the updates tomorrow to see how you are doing and keeping a spot on the bench nice and warm.
