May 8th! Any May surgeries out there?!

So today I signed my consent form and got my surgery date for May 8th. Tomorrow I start my pre op diet and I'm excited and nervous at the same time. It's a big decision but I'm ready for it. Any suggestions? I've tried the Tripact vanilla latte protein shake with almond milk and I like it. I hope I still like it after surgery. Would love to hear about everyones experience whether it be pre op or post op.

I'm may 19!




Almost there. Best of luck. The pre op diet is challenging the first 3 days but afterwards it's ok and you'll get used to not eating

I definitely don't want the afternoon. I am praying it is the morning too. I am very nervous.

Omg me too I got the call today to let me know what time is surgery. Thank God is in the morning. I have to do two weeks of liquid before I can have baby food or pureed foods. I'm so excited that the date is right around the corner. Are you on liquid diet or the high protein diet that allows one portioned meal?

I'm on a liquid diet and it's so hard. I started on April 29th & I've got 3 days left. I have to keep myself busy so I won't think about food! :-)

May 8th! Three more days!

I know what you mean. Im allowed 1/3cup of rice and today I was like hmm let me have a little more since I won't be eating rice for a while. You have no idea how much I regretted that extra rice. I had the worst stomach pains and it sent me to the bathroom. These last two days although is not required, I'm going to do only liquids just because.

Yay! I got my arrival time today. So may 8th at 10am. I'm so excited, I've read about good and bad experiences people have gone through after surgery. I'm hoping I don't have any problems. Wish you the best of luck as well. How are you doing with your pre op diet?

Mine is at 10:30. The pre-op diet was hardest the first three days for me. But I've lost almost 20lbs so that has kept me motivated. Good luck!

Omg you're so lucky Ive only lost 10 [emoji30] . I walk everywhere and been taking stairs. But I also have been on my menstrual so idk if that makes a difference. Yesterday I weighed 203. When I started the pre op I was 213.
