Almost surgery time!

My surgery is scheduled for Thursday morning. I've been in a pre-op diet since last Monday and lost 10 lbs. so far. It hasn't been nearly as tough as I expected.

Tonight I had to present at an event and as I was walking out, there was a table with Cookies & refreshments. My coworker grabbed cookies, and without even thinking, so did I. thankfully my brain woke up and was like, "seriously? What are you doing?!" Thankfully I didn't take a bite - didn't even think, just acted out of habit.

WARNING: Lady parts issue ahead!

So I get home tonight and I just started my period a week early, TWO days before surgery. Anyone else have this happen? Is it a problem for surgery?

Yay! On the surgery and keeping that willpower alive! Good luck! (Sorry can't help with the other)

Quick weightloss can cause you to start your period. Mine did but luckily It finished before surgery day. I would just call your doc office and ask them what they prefer in circumstances like this. I promise you they have dealt with it.

Hi there....me too. My surgery is Wed. April1. LOL!!!
