I just got approved yesterday for my suargery. Felling a little nervous.

The lack of real food is getting to me, even though, having been sick, I'm not terribly hungry. @@cjd2010 I hear ya! I've been laying awake in bed the last two nights kinda freaking out about everything, questioning it all. It's strange, because I've wanted this for so long!

@@mizzmaryk I;m the 14th also !

October 13th here.

Trying to keep moving and not dwell on it.



Acquiring all the supplements, protein, New Balance slip-on sneakers and such.

Ordered a couple memory foam body pillows.

Bought a new recliner two weeks ago. Planning on sleeping in it the first few days. Gonna be sore from a massive abdominal hernia & hiatal hernia he'll be repairing when he does the sleeve. The recliner is made for big & tall guys and is much easier to stand up from.

I want to be moving around as much as possible....constantly sipping on water will ensure this. I didn't want to be getting in and out of bed so much like I did with the last two abdominal hernia repairs. They were both open type procedures. Hoping that this time things will go easier due to laparoscopic method.

@@Mega_100 I know, it's terrible. Scary feelings.

I'm scheduled for 10/26...I can't believe it's finally happening and yet I'm so scared that something is going to happen between now and then...ugh!! it needs to just get here already!!!!

Hi I'm having my surgery on the same day also!!!! Start my pre-op diet on the 12th. I'm so nervous and excited all at the same time!!!????????

Well, I got a little more excited when I got on the scale and saw I had lost 5 lbs in 2 days!

@@Reckless Moxie, I took a One A Day Multivitamin with Energy (B12) and legit didn't need coffee today--maybe that could help you. Three and a half hours later and I'm still good!

@@Mega_100 that's great!! Good for you! It is nice seeing the scale move.

I'm also scheduled for October 14th. I'm on day 3 of the liquids,,,,,headaches and little grumpy! Keeping my eye on the prize at the end!!

October 14 at 0730. Can't wait!

Hi all...my date is on October 15...I'm super excited to start this adventure. I also would like to join the Facebook group, I think we all need to support each other. I don't personally know anyone that has had this procedure, so going thru this with others is really helping!

I'm October 13th! I'm really excited and a little nervous

I'm the 15th

I am on the 15th also. On my 3rd day of liquid diet. Today has been better. Not hungry, but I do want to eat solid food more out of habit, but at least I am not hungry. Have woke up with headaches past 2 mornings. I immediately grab a bottle of water and protein drink and that sees to help.

My daughter's bday party today full of goodies I couldn't eat. I'm so hungry. *ugh*
