So this is my first post. I have surgery scheduled for October 13. I am scared and excited all at the same time. Started my liquid diet. It is so hard when the family is eating around me. Any suggestions is welcome.

Keep your eyes on the prize!! Remember why you want your WLS!! Keep yourself busy. Coloring, Facebook, Baratric Pal, phone someone anything that helps keep your hands and mind busy. Good Luck

Mines the 13th too. Today is day 3 of the pre-op diet and it is soooo hard. Today, my boys wanted homemade spaghetti and meatballs it's ROUGH!! My nurse told me if you cheat on your pre-op and your liver is not small enough, or if you have food in your stomach, they will not do the surgery. They only know that after they start surgery though. So you'll have to pay for the anesthesia twice. That's been motivational for me!

The preop diet was hard for me, too! You will get through it. Part of what helped me mentally was just wanting to prove to myself that I could do it and not cheat. I also was terrified that they wouldn't do the surgery if I didn't follow the protocols! Keep going - it's worth it!
