My calorie count is easy. 1 slimfast shake plus 4 glucerna shakes equals 900 cals and 70 g protein. That's been my diet for 12 days now :-(

That's where we differ. I didn't have to do a liquid diet before my VSG. I was put on a 1200 cal for the prior 2 weeks.

In the hospital pre-op room now, waiting on an IV. S#!& just got real for me. Prayers to all of us.

Oh gosh' date=' to not be hungry at all! Day 12 of preop liquid diet and Im starving!! Do you all think preop is the hardest part?[/quote']

Yes pre op was harder for me plus my husband and four kids were always eating around me. They would say things like ill go in there but I said no I have to get use to this. Well after surgery I'm not hungry at all. I get can get in all my liquids and what not but never really hungry.

One of the great things about God is that He knows intimately how to walk alone down a road where he is beaten, ridiculed, and ashamed. He will NEVER EVER let you suffer alone.

I'm praying that you see Him coming from the people around you. Every whisper of encouragement, every kind touch, every nurturing presence is His love for you, His child.

he and I are well acquainted. I will be praying for you with everything I have. I have my surgery the same day you do. If you want someone to call, feel free to IM me for my number.[/quote']

Thank you Kyeta96. For a couple of weeks now I've been scared & upset I have to take this journey alone. I was very concerned with recovering home alone. I'm prepared & I have everything I will need but it still doesn't remove the fear. I know God is taking this journey with me.

T minus 28 hours and counting. Now is when.I'm getting a little nervous.

I promise you.... I just did this journey.... Let go and put your trust in god and prepare, expand your knowledge, it's much easier than we expect, especially when you have knowledge on your side!! You will do great!

I feel good today LaserSkinGirl. My anxiety is high but just like you & many others I can do this with God. I have a few things to do before Wednesday so I better get started.

Only positive thoughts!

I'm sitting in the waiting room I have surgery at 1pm say some prayers for me.
