Sharpie

Salem County, exit 1 on the Turnpike. Surgery Monday, August 12th. Has become surreal and I look forward to being a healthy weight again.

My two week pre-op diet starts now, 1,000 calories a day for the next two weeks. I hope having done a 99 hour water only fast and a five day juice fast in the past will remind me that this is possible. Surgery is scheduled for August 12th and I so look forward to having the life back that I once enjoyed. I've been reading your stories for a few months and I find you all inspirational, in your successes and your struggles. Blessings to all of you.

Thank everyone for the words of encouragement. Canada...I have not heard any indication that water intake for the pre-op diet is regulated. A more experienced member may be able to provide guidance. Best wishes.
