kelly lynn reacted to ready2B in 2 days until surgery and starting to panic!
I totally understand! I also had my surgery Nov 10th and although I had 4 months to prepare, it was really hard to keep my nerves in check that day! I had to just completely detach myself from all that was happening and really trust in my surgeon, my decision, all the research, the emotional and physical preparations I had done, and just not second guess any of it anymore. I really had to just shove aside all thoughts of what was going to take place with the surgery, the recovery, the rest of my life, etc. and kind of go into everything kind of numb emotionally. It worked and I was able to find a calm place during those last few hours leading up to showtime!
You will do fine! After months of anticipation getting to this point, the surgery itself is sort of anticlimactic. You fall asleep, then what feels like a second later, you wake up and it's over. You are sore for a few days but that's very temporary. I am a week out and it is just now starting to sink in that I am beginning a whole new wonderful life!

You will do fine!!!! I wasn't a bit nervous before my surgery. I had wanted it for so long (even had to gain 4 pounds to qualify). It has been a tough road, but I sure don't have buyers remorse now.
Good luck to you!!!

I had no pre op liquid diet, nor any other restrictions unless you count the normal don't eat after X hour the night before and nothing (no liquids) after midnight. I read other's post about the struggle, and I always
Am thankful I didn't have it. Maybe it's a starting BMI thing. Mine was under 40.
