My surgery is also 10/7. I'm very nervous as well. My biggest concern is how to get min. 60 gm protein. What if I drink water too fast...

My surgery is Oct.8. I am getting really nervous !! I've been on pre-op diet since last Thursday and have been really bad the last 2 days. I feel so guilty but it is really hard !! I am getting back on my shakes tomorrow and going to finish strong. It is scary to think that I will never be able to eat "normally" again. Which certainly isn't a bad thing - but I'm addicted to food !! It is hard to let it go!

My preop said I could have protein shakes, lean meat and vegetables for lunch and dinner so that's what I am doing but I do worry about the liver being too big for them to get to my stomach. I am also worried about never being able to eat normally and always taking vitamins. It truly seems like a whole new way of life but I just keep telling myself the alternative is to die from complications due to obesity.
