It's strange to see the difference in protocols between surgeons!

Mine only requires a high Protein, low carb liver shrinking diet for 2 weeks before the procedure and clear liquids for 1 day before.

Fascinating some places require 2 weeks of liquids.

So many of you are getting your surgery next week... I am sending positive vibes to you all!!!

Mine is Jan 16th. I just had my required class of final details. Next week is preop appt and start of liquid diet. I also had to change primary physician and therapist... since they left the clinics I was using. So much changing and going on. I just put in my grocery order to pick up Saturday for my liquids and post op liquids. It's becoming more real... I am scared, nervous and excited all at the same time. Scared because of all the horror stories I have read and surgery is scary to begin with. Nervous because I want everything to go well and work for me. I have been struggling with my weight since I hit puberty. And Excited since I am still working on ME and this is what I am doing it for.

Also wishing everyone who is after the first week positive vibes as well!!!

oh how do we join the Whatsapp group???

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!

      Today was rough...
      I've been experiencing a headache all day today that just won't go away. I'm thinking it's now progressing into a migraine. Does anyone else get headaches from taking vitamin B12? I did some research and learned that usually a lack of B12 causes headaches. But I've noticed when I take it, I have reoccurring headaches. 😫
