2 days until surgery

I am two day out until surgery and I am having mixed emotions.

I cheated on my pre-op liquid diet last night with a piece of pizza. Yes, I did. And it was gone before I even thought about what I was eating.

Today is much better. I even cooked my husband breakfast- eggs, bacon and toast and did not want a bit of it. Weird for me. I normally am the first one to fight over the bacon. LOL

Eating soup tonight for dinner followed by a glass of water and possibly some yogurt as a treat or a popcicle. Tomorrow, more shakes, and nothing past 8pm since my surgery is at 9am.

I'm nervous but since starting the pre-op diet Thursday, I have dropped 15lbs. I was able to put on somke capri pants that have been in my closet since 2 summers ago that were tight then. They fit PERFECTLY now. This just keeps me motivated!

Don't be too hard on yourself, the purpose of the pre-op diet is to shrink your liver and get you used to thinking about your food choices. A lot of us slip. Good luck with your surgery. I am three weeks post surgery and down 25 lbs. (10 pre-op)

and very happy with my decision.

Hi- I was freaking out on Friday prior to going into the OR room. However, within 30 minutes it was done and I was in recovery. I also had a moment in recovery where I said to myself "what the @!#@ did I just do to myself". This has all now passed. I'm 2 days out and felling a bit sore, but overall great. I'm excited to begin this new chapter in my life. Just remember the worst part is what we build up in our heads....it is not bad at all. Best of luck to you!!
