My surgery is this Friday the 10th, and I have been trying the liquid stuff for two days and feel awful today. Like I am getting the flu, is this common when you are not eating? Anyway, I have contemplated cancelling the surgery like 20 times already since I scheduled it a month ago. I annoy myself and confused with all of these emotions. Like, do I really want to put this in my body? I guess these fears are probably "normal" but I am a mess.

Thanks for listening,

I think it is normal to feel awful when you are not eating. I know I ALWAYS do!! Hang in there!!

I really believe that you'll be sorry if you cancel the surg! It's the best thing I've ever done. But you have to do what is right for you! Don't cancel because of fear though, only cancel if you think it's really not right for you! Good luck you'll be in my thoughts!!

I can say for myself.. I feel like CRAP!!! I am grouchy and irriatable all the time. I have a headache and I still have 2 weeks to go on this prop diet. I have too considered giving up. But we can't !!!! Hang in there. I know it is not going to be easy, but it will be worth it!!! I will be praying for you. I hope this helps you..

i felt the same way. i also have put my husband through hell cause he can eat whatever and i want a hamburger. i fely sick and hungry. thanks god surgery is almost here.

I think it's common to get sick. Especially since you are not eating how you are used to eating, your body has to process this a new way, and you may be more susceptible for a few illnesses, or your just run down and having phantom symptoms. But most surgeons let you have surgery unless you are 1) Running a fever. 2) Throwing up. 3) And/or Its respiratory. Good Luck, I am in the same boat, just a few more days until my surgery!

Time to double up on the vitamin C and zinc. Otawalla has a drink called Monster C and I would chug one. It works really well when you feel illness setting in.
