Pre-Op Diet Begins Tomorrow

I have begun this process what seems like a lifetime ago. I'm sure you all know the deal. I start the two week liquid pre-op tomorrow morning. I'm not even dreading it. Anyone can do anything for 2 weeks, right? It's not like it's forever. The ultimate goal is within my reach for the first time. I can do it!

I posted last week, I think about a bit of anxiety over the reality of it all. I'm not anxious anymore. I am so ready for this, my friends!

I tolerate Protein shakes pretty well. I've figured out how to be able to drink the artificially sweetened drinks so I'm not stuck just drinking Water all the time. I've got my meds and Vitamins all good to go. Not that I'm OCD or anything!

I've relied heavily on this forum for answers to my way out questions and have found a couple of pretty good friends. I really feel pretty ready for this surgery.

I'll weigh myself in the morning prior to the first shake and start the countdown from there.

I hope you all have a great evening!
