  1. Hi all, So I'm a few hours off of a day before my surgery and am sick to death of this pre op diet! But tomorrow I go on a 24 hour liquid diet and if I'm honest I'm looking forward to it just to introduce some flavour at least to my meals. So just like you all I'm getting nervous and if I ask myself what am I nervous about really it's having excess skin. I've been told that I'm young and active so if I do the right exercise I should get some good results but there is a nagging feeling in the back of my head. Has anybody had good results with excess skin or got some good good tips? Thanks
  2. Hi, my surgery is October the 3rd. Is anyone from the UK? Day 3 of my pre op diet.
  3. October the 3rd and my only regret so far is not deciding to do this years ago. The pre op diet is hard but it's for an important reason... Which I have to remind myself hourly. I didn't realise how much of life revolves around food until you can't have it.
  4. My surgery is on the 3rd October but I was curious about the procedure and watched a video in YouTube. I see them lift the liver and can understand it can be more difficult if it's not shrunk. If you think it may put you off your surgery please don't watch it although I found it more interesting then off putting. Not sure about you guys but my doc is giving me a DVD of the surgery
  5. Hi, I have my op booked in for the 3rd of October and have been on the pre-op diet for a few days. I didn't realise how hard it would be. How did you find the pre-op diet? I'm ok with the jitters at the moment but then I'm just under 2 weeks away. From everything I've read and been told the operation is straight forward and very little side effects so what I do and don't think about the op and instead picture what you will look like in a years time.
