To the rest who are preparing for the pre op, i wish you well, not long now! Nerves are to be expected and very understandable, its the unknown, and wondering how life will change afterwards.

Day 7 of pre - op diet........ and I'm surviving.

This time a week tomorrow and the op will be over and my new life will have begun.

Yeee haaa..time will fly sister!xxx
 
Joanne - eeks. We may be last but least we get to read up from the others :). Day four of preop diet. Lost four pounds. Happy. Sticking rigid to it. Only just got out the shower. Might have a shake or count the cals and have some bacon and scrambled egg. It's Sunday. Been watching a cooking program. What???? Lol. Worried about all the things I won't be able to eat. Worried about my partner not liking me losing weight. Worried about making it to the 27th on this diet. Worried about injections. Worried about what people will say. So many things whiz zing about in my head. On the other hand I'm so very excited :) were on out way to feeling better about ourselves, feeling comfortable in clothes, fitting into a plane seat (mentioned earlier - oh gosh yes), feet not aching so much, knees too. And so much more. And that's why our heads are all over the place. We are going to end up being someone were not used to and as this weight loss can happen so quick out brains have no chance of keeping up. Ok. Breakfast now :) all the best everyone xxx we're so blessed to have this place to write down how we feel and share the same journey with others. So important. And thank you xx

I havent even started the milk diet yet, i dont start it until the 17th! dont think i could have lasted this long like u doing well xx
I feel the same, wish i could sleep until the day and it be all ok xx
 
Thanks Joanne. Had a moment earlier where I could have sabotaged all my hard work. My preop is three weeks on a 800 cal diet. Doing mostly shakes and an evening meal. I slept in late to pass the time to nearer lunchtime ;) was working out how long to go. Not next thurs not the thurs after but the thurs after that aaargh. Discussing with my chap about getting me to hosp and where he waits after that. Should he take the hour trip back home then to come back the next day? Reckon he will stay in a nearby hotel. All getting real now :/ xx

Mine is kids at school and hubby to pick them up, he dont drive so have to rely on family to get them but i got to be in hossie just before they get picked up so will be goin with my mam, n then when will he visit if he got the kids??

I only doing a ten day milk diet beforehand so as i said start the 17th x
 
Joanne you'll have a bit or sorting out to do. Us woman have to organise all these things too which can get stressful plus we've got this op looming. Were all here for each other. This place does help so much. But we will sort it cos were superwomen ;) hehe. The day of surgery for each of us is gonna be buzzing on here or at least the night before with our last minute jitters. After the op though Joanne if you're the only driver don't be tempted or forced to drive too soon. We must take it easy so we recover quicker :). This time next year ............ I'm ready!!! X
