One week to my surgery and I can't stick to my pre-op diet!!!!!

I do not know what is wrong with mE, I have not been out of control or anything, but I just can't seem to do it. I don't know if it is in my head or not but I am starved!!!!!! I have 4 more days then 2 days of clear liquids. I am already freaking out about the surgery and know I am going to have a fatty liver. UGH!!!!!

Kristin. This is a very important step to an even more important goal. You can do it, If your hungry have a suger free ice pop. This is all about taking control of your life. This is your first step!So, "Batten down the Hatches" young Lady! You are days away from a "Life Changing Experence!" If you are not ready, tell your doctor and get the help you need so when the time does come, you will welcome it like alot of us did. Just never limit yourself. believe in yourself, Know you can do it! Take Care, Julio!

kristen,, mind over matter,,just remember that,i did it for 6 days just to find out i couldnt have surgery on my scheduled date,but i decided to keep doing the diet pretty much,with some low fat foods just in case i can go elsewhere to have my surgery.you CAN do it..it is,like julio says,very important to follow the surgeons instructions for your own safety.keep positive,you will be fine,,god bless and good luck to you,,cyndee

I couldn't have said it better then Julio - He has some real words of wisdom for you there. If you really don't think you are ready, stop and get off the merry-go-round ride a bit - figure out what the root of the problem is and then get back on - this isn't a race, it's a life long journey -until death. I really hope you can get yourself ontrack because you don't want the doctors going in to do the surgery and then sending you home because your liver isn't looking good (that has happened) - that would really be a huge disappointment and you'd be beating yourself up over that one! Try to clear your mind and determine what you truly want and why you are trying to thwart your own efforts - it's most likely fear, that's usually at the root a lot of time. Best of luck to you!
