my surgery date is the same day! March 2nd.........i start my liver reduction diet tomorrow...i am having second thoughts, but I am sure that my feelings are normal. Just nervous and wondering how I am going to transition my life from all about eating to well not? How will I go weeks on end without eating....this forum helps though.

Band sisters...I love it! Had my first shake this morning, but I normally have a shake for Breakfast, I'm sure that by lunch it'll hit me.

I'm having second thoughts mainly due to the anesthesia. Its funny because I've dealt with cancer before and have had multiple surgeries, but for some reason I am terrified beyond belief!

I'm afraid to have my first PB, stuck episode and all the other things that come with it. I do love the fact that I have great support systems.

Let's keep each other updated!

No fear u came this far, I just had gallbladder surgery in Jan. The anatheshia is the greatest part. I was out before I hit the operating room. I am worried abt the shoulder pain I had with the galbladder surg. Its from the co2 and the sore throat from the breathing tub. But, it will be worth it when I can wear shorts this summer. I am on the liver reduction diet. Its tough so far..is yours total liquid diet?? Popiciles never tasted so good. Are u on facebook?

It's really not that difficult to get protein in. Just eat it first
