Two weeks today !!!!!

[smilergem]

Hi everyone
Well, in exactly two weeks time I should have been bypassed (fingers crossed), and hopefully I shall be on the ward recovering and looking forward to a happier, healthier, slimmer life to come.
Thank you to every person on this wonderful site for your help and advice, and I am sure I am going to be asking an awful lot more questions in the days and weeks to come.
I still don't know which pre op diet to do, the slimfast or low cal one. Think I shall have a look at other's food ideas for the low cal one
I am feeling very nervous, but every time I read someone's positive story, it gives me great hope that I will be ok
Thanks again everyone xxxxx

Jan, you'll be fine and i'm sure you'll do brilliantly once you've had your bypass. You've waited a long time and really deserve it... The pre-op diet will fly by and i'm sure whichever you choose you will do well on it xxx

Jan you so deserve this op after 4 years of waiting. You'll sail through the pre-op diet and rightly take your place on the loosers bench.

You are going to be absolutely fine hun, and as Gail & Kat say, you more than anyone else deserves this after everything you've been through :hug99:

We're all behind you every step of the way, you have nothing to worry about. Go for it girl!! xxx

Jan, as the others say you are going to fly through this surgery!

As for pre op diet - do you have time now to do a couple of days on each one and see which you prefer? Just a thought ...

Hi Jan, you are going to do great at the pre-op and the bypass. Don't forget we are all here to support you, I will be 2 weeks behind you and looking forward to having you and Tracey to compare notes with. I have to do the milk diet and don't get a choice. When do you start yours? I have to start mine on Thursday. Good luck with whichever one you choose.

Fantastic Jan, I cant wait to follow your journey , you will be brilliant! I can feel it in my water Good luck with the pre-op diet X

 

[smilergem]

Awww thanks everyone for your kind comments. I really don't know how I would get through this without this lovely forum and it's wonderful people :grouphugg:
Tracey and Sharron, it's good to know we are going through this together too, and I just hope we all do really well
I guess we are normal being scared, but as I said before, it helps so much to read others' stories and threads.
I still can't believe it is going to happen, counting down now
Take care Tracey and Sharron on your pre op diets, still haven't decided which one I am going to do lol xxxxxxxxx

 

[dreamofbeingslim]

You too Jan.
