Clock ticking down... 19th

Had my pre-op appt. Started my 2 protein shacks and 1 low carb high protien diet in 10/12. So far so good. I do real good for breakfast and lunch but I'm starving by dinner.....:thumbup: I hope I can do this.

My surgery is scheduled for the 19th and this pre-op diet is getting difficult! Getting extremely nervous about surgery although more excited than nervous!:thumbup:

Dont be nervous about the surgery. I was banded on Tuesday and I can tell you its not bad. I didnt have to do a pre-op diet. Im not sure why some docs do that and some dont. I really dont know what I weigh and still dont. That number does not mean anything to me. My doc said that since my BMI was around 38 that I didnt need to do anything before surgery. But I feel for you now. NOW....Im hungry. Some say they arent hungry, but I am. Im getting all my protein in and eating what I should but my god....hungry! The surgery is not bad. When I woke up I didnt have any pain and I was not sick. Just tired. I had some gas pains that were not alieviated by walking as some say. But by today they are completely gone. Really, you will be just fine.

I'm getting banded on the 19th which is our special day.

The preop diet was a struggle for me last night i was dizzy and shaky but I just reminded myself how worth it this is. Keep up the good work we can do it!
