I'm thinking about going on a liquid diet for a few days. But I'm not sure. I don't want to go against the program, but what if I gain weight by the time it's the morning of surgery? I'm not a spring chicken anymore, do I don't lose like I used to.

I would do what the doctor says. I have to do a two week liquid diet, but that is what my doc requires.

Why? When is your surgery? What’s going through your mind? We’re all here to help...

Just praying nothing goes wrong somewhere down the line that makes me sorry I did it. I'm still in 100 percent just second guessing myself, will it work? Can I do this? Surgery Nov. 17. Anyone else worried???

I have my surgery on Nov. 17 as well. I had my egd today. I am sure it won’t be as awesome as the egd. I haven’t been this relaxed in a long time.

I can’t say that I am worried about the surgery, but mainly, that is because I have had a number of weird one-time accidents and medical oddities, so this isn’t even close to my most complicated surgery. Plus, I have had a lot of surgery. I remember being wheeled away from my parents at five to have my tonsils out. I was shy back then and just stayed quiet as I counted backward for the anesthesiologist. I was out quick. I coughed up some hot blood in the bathroom the next day, and at five, I didn’t understand that coughing your guts up was an expression. I thought I had literally coughed my up my guts and was going to die. Of course, the adults thought this was hilarious, and I wasn’t scared of medical procedures after that.

I have been lucky to have had some great surgeons. However, I am a little worried about the recovery and hope I can sleep through most of the first week. Just be sure to follow instructions to the tee, and talk to your doc about any concerns. It is normal to be nervous about surgery. I am just a weirdo not to be.

You’ll do great!

I hear you! Surgery on the 2nd for me, and I’m definitely getting cold feet. But I told myself I better just put some socks on because this is definitely happening. The feeling is totally normal. Remind yourself why you are doing this - whether it be from pictures, from what doctors have told you, or from thinking about the quality of life you don’t have now but want. Good luck!!

I’m having my November 30, I Just hope I’m doing the right thing. I’m almost 60 years old and I’m a type one diabetic. My A1 C is totally out of whack and I need to straighten it out. My mom died at 61 years of age so hopefully this will keep me around a little longer

Have you tried the new Medtronic pump? Most automated one yet. My son got one a few months ago and it is pretty awesome.
