This is day 4 and it's tuff ... I have to keep reminding myself why I'm doing it and that I actually CAN DO IT!

Who else is or has experienced the same things during pre-op and how are yu or did yu cope?

Ok, not going to lie, it sucks giving up habits that we have enjoyed for many years. I weaned off Diet Mt Dew, coffee, alcohol,and then deliberately starved myself to shrink my liver so my surgery would be successful.

AND IT WAS WORTH IT

This isn't the easy way. It is a tool. BUT IT IS SO WORTH IT. Just saying.

Your absolutely right! Thanks for the share @@OKCPirate

I'm on day 7 out of 14 days pre-op. I think of food all the time, I think we just have to get through it. You can do it!

BTW, if I didn't really say it earlier,,, IT IS WORTH IT You don't know, but wait until you don't have to plan to cut your toenails. Think about it...inhale, snip, stand up, inhale, lean forward, etc, When you are past that point, you will realize pre/post op was worth it. JUST SAYING
