Surgery Tomorrow.... Pre-Op Torture



Recommended Posts

I can't believe the day has come. I am super excited. I must say the whole pre-op process has been torture. 15 day all liquid pre-op diet. Today I drank my bottle of magnesium citrate, washed with half a bottle of hibiclense, and just got done gargling and swishing half the bottle of listerine (holy hell my mouth is on fire). Tomorrow morning I will wash with the remaining hibiclense and gargle with the remaining listerine. I know all of this prep will be worth it in the long run. The skin is the first line of defense and it is best to be pro-active. They pushed my surgery from 7:30 am to 1:30 in the afternoon. I just want to get this over with and begin my new sleeved life. I am so ready. Thank you everyone for all of your support, I can't tell you all how grateful I am for discovering this group. Wish me luck and I'll see ya all on the other side.

Woohoo! The day is finally here for you =D It will fly by! That listerine swish sounds brutal, I have to buy the non-alcoholic listerine, the burning just kills my mouth. You'll be in my thoughts and prayers!

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?
