August 26th is the Date! Nervous Excited scared... mixed emotions

Hello All. My name is Kasie I'm new to this all. My Dr is Dr. Kim from Colleyville, Tx. Im scared, worried, excited, happy. LOL i'm just full of mixed emotions. I start my pre-op Liquid diet on the 19th. I have to do the Bariessentials Shakes. I am ready for a new life and for this amazing opportunity of a tool that will be given to me I know its not going to be easy but I'm ready for the journey. I have a couple of questions Is pickle pops ok? They are 5 calories 2g carbs and 0 sugar. I love pickles and I could eat these Popsicles all day. Any tips, motivation or anything would help tremendously!! I have learned a lot from these forums and its also well kinda eased my nervousness lol. I know to leave it all in Gods hands. TIA

My guess would be the sodium you would want to look out for. I am starting pre op diet tomorrow (it is a mix of protein shakes and two small meals) and my surgery date is the 27th. I am nervous and excited!

I don't know your requirements but my pre-op diet says I can have any liquid that is less than 15 calories per serving. I'm assuming a pickle pop is just pickle juice(?). I've never heard of them. Sounds interesting...

Good luck! I'm not allowed any meals my shakes are my meals.

Pickle pops are just pickle juice I'm assuming and are Popsicles. Google it only place I've ever seen them is here at our H.E.B. they r dish if your a pickle lovers lol

My date is Aug 26th... Super excited, very worried and just want to fast forward to the recovery room. I had 2 c-sections so not sure why I'm so panicked?!?

I've lost 10lbs just by not drinking any calories and lowering my carbs... Only pre op I have to really do is clear liquids after 1pm on Sunday...
