I'm posting bc I maybe someone has experienced the freak-out before surgery and can share perspective.

I'm getting my sleeve this Friday (Dec. 21) and have been very diligent to sticking to my liquid diet. Right now I am so tired, hungry and emotional I just want to curl up in a ball and start crying. I don't understand my feelings. I should be happy, excited.

These VLC liquid days have been really hard and I am very nervous that the days after my surgery will be worse - I really want to go into surgery with a positive, happy outlook, but that is hard to manage right now.

Anyone have thoughts on how to turn my frown upside down?

Thanks!

I am right there with you! I am scheduled for tomorrow morning and I am so scared! Everyone on this site is very supportive and I hope to report back soon on my progress! I am just as emotional and everything happening in the world is really getting to me! I did break down and cry several times in the past two days. Maybe its the lack of food that is making me so emotional?

It's some of all the above, but I'm so excited for our embarking on this new journey. Sending wishes of health and speedy healing your way. You'll be in my thoughts!

Good luck!!!
