Is it just me.....

Is it just me or is everyone else just ready to explode from nerves and excitment? My date is on the 25th and the closer it gets the more butterflys I feel. This is my last week of real food since I have to be on a liquid diet 10 days before surgery. I guess its just getting so close and so real now that I am having a hard time staying prepared. If anyone else is having surgery that day or very close to it let me know cause I would love to make a new friend to chat with going through the same things at the same time.

Yes i totally understand how you feel . My date is the 30th. Here is to zapping away the pounds ~Amanda

I think we are all feeling pretty much the same way. My date is June 21.

No sweetie, it is not just you. We are all feeling it! But we'll all get throught this month together! It is only 7 days and a wake up for me. My surgery is at 8:30 in the morning! I will have all day to SLEEP! HERE IS TO ALL OF US JUNIES!!!! ~LeAnn~

Kori, I feel the same way! My date is June 28. Who is your Dr.? Where are you having your surgery done? I am in St. Cloud, Dr. Shapiro is my Dr. Yours is the first I have heard of a liquid diet the week before. My Dr. has just said don't eat a steak the night before, make it a light meal. I have been on a high protien diet since Feb. though. Congrats on your date... I will just be a few days behind!

Hey, Kori! My surgery is June 24th. I go to the doctor tomorrow to get my liguid fast foods....I've been sampling them, which I think is a really good thing. I now know what not to even bother getting. But everyone is different. So, if you haven't done this yet, I'd suggest you do. My friends and i are going out for a "Last Supper" tomorrow night. I start the liguid diet on Friday. I'm not looking forward to it, but I just keep thinking about how all of this is for a healthier me. I too am getting the butterflies. I have a friend I've met through a support group i go to that just had her surgery yesterday. I went to visit her in the hopsital and it was just all too real. I've never had surgery before. I've never stayed in the hospital over night. Shoot, I've never even been admitted to a hospital. Anyway, I'm with you sister! Have a great week! And let me know how the liquid fast goes for you!
