      Ok, Jonathon, I apologize, I posted a comment I did not mean to post on your Fitbit and it won't let me delete it. I'm so sorry. You truly are a great inspiration!

      Well, I'm game! I'll be glad to help you out!

       

      So, today is my 2nd day of pre-surgery diet. I did not get in enough calories yesterday (1000-1200) and it doesn't look as though I will today either, although I am still trying. Besides water, protien shakes, powdered protien, broth and yogurt, what else can you eat pre-op??? I think this is all I was told I could have. I feel weak today. I will consume another shake and more yogurt today but that is not going to help me feel better.

       

      Another thing...did anyone else have a spouse, significant other, or support person that Decided at the last moment they didn't want you to do this??? I understand my hubby is worried, and now is saying he is concerned I won't make it through the surgery, but my surgery is Wednesday!...6 days away!!! I'm not sure what to do. Of course I have concerns myself, but I really feel this is best for my health in the long run. Has anyone else ever wondered if they would survive the surgery? Most likely mine will be an open surgery. And will take a bit longer to recooperate from, but still worth doing.

       

      So please, if anyone else ever got to the surgery date with concerns of coming out alive, I'd sure like to hear from you.

       

      Thanks!

      Thank you RJ's/beginning, Carlotta1, and willbskinny for your comments. Wow! 4 years! Now THAT is determination! :-) I'm sure once I get my date and looking back it will seem like it was all a bluer, unless it's 4 years, lol! I will just keep reading, learning and hope the time goes by faster than it feels like right now! Thanks so much for the pep talks! It really helps. :-D

      Nancy E.

      You are almost there!!! How exciting! Almost every post I've read on pre surgery indicates anxiety just prior is normal and I would think even healthy. I can't wait till I get there! I KNOW I'm going to have anxiety but I know it's going to be worth it. You have everyone here pulling for you. You are beginning your new healthier life so go and get ''em and keep us posted!! So happy for you! :-)
