Hi,

I am having surgery this week, not scared of the procedure at all, have had many major surgeries on my spine in the past.

But I am crying all the time, which is definitely not me. I am also a diabetic, my sugar levels are fine...........am so happy to

start my new life, but can't expalin my feelings. Has anyone else out there experienced this? Also feeling very weak on the pre- surgery diet, getting enough calories. Has anyone else experienced this?

Any help you could provide, would really be appreciated............Thanks Lori :rolleyes:

Lori,

The calorie restriction can really mess with your emotions. It is going to be ok. Just be gentle with yourself.

Best wishes.

Thank you so much...............Lori

You may also just be realizing just how much this surgery is going to improve your health/quality of life. If this surgery has been a long time coming (like it is for so many), the reality of it actually happening may be hitting you, too. Just another idea.

I personally went through the weepys last week. I personally was realizing this was going to improve my life, change it and my best friend (food) was being served with eviction papers.

Good luck things will be great!

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
