Liquids only tommorow

Well.. Today is my last day of eating like I have all my life. Tomorrow I do a liquid diet until midnight then surgery is Friday morning.

This board has been an amazing resource of information and support and I would like to thank you all.     [hugs]

The anticipation for surgery will help you tomorrow.
The commitment to do this for your health is strong and will help you always.

I have surgery on Friday as well!!!

Yeah for both of us!

Good luck in surgery Friday and keep us informed on your progress.

fat free beef broth and fat free chicken broth helped me a TON the day before surgery.  Made it feel like you just ate something rather than drinking clear liquids all day!

Stay busy to keep your mind off of it, but also take it easy.  Don't spend all day rushing around doing errands.  Your body is about to go through some trauma and the better rested you are, the better.

Good luck!!!

Best of luck to you! I hope you have a speedy recovery and things go GREAT!

Thanks everyone! Im actually allowed FULL liquids tomorrow [day before surgery]. That shouldnt be bad. Im thinking coffee, protein shakes, broth, diet Snapple, water.... Maybe some popsicles if I feel like it.

Hey  Liz wishing you the best! Wow your time went so fast, I hope mines go really fast!! I am so excited for you, because you really deserve this I saw how long it took for you to get approved and your whole journey!! You will do great it is your time honey----Embrace this and let God have his way!! Keep us posted and I am praying for you!

 Almost to a landmark!  

It's exciting and it's nice you only have to do liquids for 2 days!  I found especially the first few days of doing liquids that having lots of warm things seemed to help me (I'm in a cold climate so maybe that was it!)  Having something in front of you all the time gets you through that urge to check the fridge!

Good luck on your journey

 Good luck tomorrow! It is not SO horrible -- and the day OF surgery you don't even feel like eating -- atleast I didn't. Congrats on your decision!
