Caffeine Before surgery
I stupidly drank something tonight with caffeine in it without even thinking. Surgery is tomorrow morning...does anyone know how big of a problem this is?

I had caffeine right up until surgery. :)
Calorie free... coffee in my Opti, but caffeine. It was no problem!

Oh good!! So happy to hear that, the manual for the hospital said calorie free and caffeine free and I totally panicked a little when I remembered. I am kind of nervous thinking something is going to cancel this tomorrow or I've forgotten something I had to do. Nerve wracking.

I was panicked too thinking something would cancel my surgery. I think that feeling is totally normal.
Since your program says caffeine free (mine didn't), if they ask if you had caffeine, just say no. Lol. They won't test you for it. :)
Tomorrow will be great!!! Good luck with your surgery and I'll see you on the other side!!! :)

I was not a fast loser but who cares as long as you get there! I know the newbies check the trackers and the signatures so although I kind of lost track of how the rest of the weight came off, you should know that it was not fast and furious but it was slow and steady!
current BMI 24.7 that, my friends, is NORMAL!!! Strong is the new pretty!
