My surgery date is Dec 16th and I am really nervous about it.. I start my clear liquid diet Next Monday the 2nd so not looking forward to that but will do just as the Doctor says. I have never had surgery before and this is was is scaring me the most not knowing what to expect.

I'm also scheduled for the 16th of this month.. I'm SUPER nervous ?de14 but yet ready for a new change in life☺️ Best of luck to you MainExplorer!!

How are you doing? How is the diet going for you? Thinking and praying for you, it's going to be here before you know it!

My diet.. It's going =/ I'm just super nervous I can't wait to get this over with. The thing that gets to me the most.. Is the fact of losing my hair

LULU I feel the same way... My sister had this surgery in May and she had the most gorgeous thick hair and even though it's still beautiful it has definitely thinned out. I ALREADY have thin hair so I'm VERY nervous abt this... Gonna just try my hardest to get as much protein as possible...

Well i am 3 days out from my surgery... The gas part is killing OMG it is wicked bad. I have not felt like drinking anything not to mention my protien drinks. Every time I drink something I can feel my stomach and my insides are grubbling and growling... I have been up walking and even been up most of today wrapping xmas gifts.. Does the gas part every go away?? At this point it feels like i will have this all the time.
