So freaking hungry!

I'm doing the pre-op diet and I'm hungry and have a headache.  Agh.  The most frustrating part is that it's not 100% that I'll have my surgery tomorrow b/c we are still crossing fingers for insurance approval.  I think I might just try to sleep through the day. 

Other than broth, crystal lite, sf jello and popsicles, protien drinks--is there anything I can have that will make me not hungry?

No, you are going to be hungry.  I am so sorry, but it's just the way it is.  :(   It will pass, really, it is just a little bit longer and it will pass.  Huge hugs to you.  I hope you find out REALLY soon about the insurance issue.  That would drive me crazy.  Hang in there, this is the worst part of the whole thing.  Go to sleep if you can or at least keep yourself occupied.

Elina is right. Just keep pouring in the fluids and distract yourself as best you can. It'll be over soon. Hugs

Hi Sarah!

Oh You are so close to the losers bench!! Yay!!

When I did my pre-op...I found that HOT liquids seemed to make me feel more full...and they took longer to drink and, for me, they were more satisfying. I did a lot of Cup-a -soup. Hang in there!!!

Thanks everyone!  I took a tylenol and a nap and feel much better.  It looks as if tomorrow is not going to happen, but we should get word from insurance tomorrow morning and I will be able to have the surgery on the 28th, so I'll just keep drinking my fluids. :)

I have to be at the hospital at 5:30 a.m. for surgery.  I am both excited and a little nervous.  Please say a prayer for me.

 

Thank you!
