Surgery date 28/10/13 new and scared

I'm just joining and due for sleeve surgery 28/10/13. First weigh in 122kgs I am having trouble with the pre op diet started 2 weeks ago I was doing well with shakes and salad or veggies and lost 5 kg, but on sat night I had a blow out I drank 1/2 can of coke and ate chocolate then after going out with my son I had a mcdonalds burger. I have been exited about surgery and now I am just scared. I have 13 days to go and worried I can't maintain the pre op diet the shakes are now making me feel sick, I have tried not to think too much but it is all I can think about.

Completely normal to feel scared, I did too but it's part of the process I think. I don't have to go on a pre-op diet until the day before and then it's liquid only. I'm scheduled for 10/23, completed all of my PATs today and now really looking forward to it. Getting through those really helped ease my nerves. Talk to your doc about your concerns, I guarantee it's nothing he/she hasn't heard before and it will help ease your mind too. Good luck :)

Thanks BerryChic. I'm just learning how to use this site. I've read so much with what the dr has given me I think I have overload. I had an appointment booked for Thursday with the dietitian and was looking forward to it but the office rang and said due to problems they have to make it a phone appointment. Oh well still looking forward to the surgery. Good luck with yours, a step into a new life.????
