Sorry I just reread your message and I'm sorry I realized you did name your surgeon. Don't mind me- I have liquid diet brain lol

Haha! I love that saying...liquid diet brain. OMG, I am definitely stealing that from you and using it. 5 days on this liquid diet and my work people are thinking I'm nuts. :) I've never felt so out of it in my life. Only 9 more day to go for me...ugh!

Good luck to you!!!

Now that I am home I feel lots better. I encourage everyone to get gas x and a heating pad, it really makes a big difference.

I'm scheduled for monday at 1:00pm a little frustrated about that and let myself eat a half slice of pizza, so stressed and anxious right now, wondering of I'm better off not getting it. I'm not sure what to do and I may have screwed myself eby eating that small slice and I've done so well so far

You didn't screw yourself. Just make sure you don't give in tomorrow. It's nerve wracking, exciting, crazy, stressful, and just about any other emotion you can come up with. How did the pizza really taste? Probably not so wonderful! After Monday you won't even WANT that pizza for a loooong time. We are all the type of people thAt have made excuses to not do things our whole life - diet, exercise, cook, etc. make this a reason you HAVE to get surgery! I am sure you will do just fine! You only have ONE MORE DAY! Take a deep breath, forgive yourself and get ready for your new life.

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!
