Hey misstvb

Glad to see someone else on for Oct. 8th. There area lot of Oct.7th and as matter of fact there are a lot of Oct fest people. You can look under Oct 7th surgery. Everyone on the sites are really nice. Wow my doctor had me start my liquids on the 26th. I had sort of a problem with my blood sugarsso I am 90% liquid lol.. I'd be glad to be your buddy maybe we can find some more Oct. 8th buddies. But like I said the October group is nice. And welcome

Congrats!!! How exciting. I am Oct. 7th.

I am scheduled for Oct 8. I will have surgery at Fair Oaks hospital in Fairfax Virginia. I am getting really excited as the date gets nearer. Am finishing up my last pre op tests this week. See my surgeon Friday. Am not required to do the preop liquid diet, just watch what I eat before surgery. Looking forward to sharing experiences with all on this thread. Good luck to all having surgery on the 8th. Wishing us all a successful surgery, speedy recovery with few to no complications.

Congrats on your upcoming big day misstvb

How's your diet... What do u get to eat

The diet is okay, I'm not hungry but still have cravings for real food. I get protein shakes, broth, sugar free jello and popsicles. Only problem is a migraine which could be non-related.

Are you getting enough fluids? That can cause the headaches

The fluids are a really good point, no I'm not sure I am. I'll keep track of them tomorrow as I didn't today.

Carry a water bottle with you and just sip it all the time. It should help

Where did you get that water from? I am always looking for different drinks.

So I can drink broth for my liver shrinking diet?

According to my clinic yes. I would check with your clinic before adding broth.
