My surgery is Nov 3 at Barix with Dr. Pupkova!  I have been waiting so long for this to happen that I  just can't wait!  My friend Jillz is such a huge supporter for me!  Anyone else at Barix Nov 3?

Six sleeps and my day is here. I am totally calm about it. The problem is I am starving right now. I am on day eight of my preop liquid diet. Day five was the worst. I wanted to eat so bad. My stomach yelled at me for hours. I weighed myself and was up four pounds from the day before. I had not cheated. I was about in tears. I had to keep telling myself its for my liver. My liver is shrinking. I made it thru that crisis but here comes another one. Today I am starving again. My stomach is yelling at me to feed it. I am staying strong but it is actually keeping me awake. My liver had better be shrinking. This is painful. My DH is sick with a cold and if I get it and they postpone my surgery I will not be strong enough to go thru this again so I will be in trouble. I do not expect a long recovery and think I will be fine as soon as I get the surgery, Its the waiting and preop diet that is killing me. I wish I could sleep till then.

I forgot ... there is also the depo shot. I was on it before my pill and loved it because I never got a period, but I get a very unusual side affect from it that my dr never heard of anyone else having.

Hi Tami!

I'm also November 17th!  It seems so close and yet so far away, doesn't it? 

What have you been doing to prep?  This week I got a bunch of books and have been reading those.  Also ordered protein samples so I'll have a lot to try once I'm back at home. 

Yesterday I cleaned out the pantry...I have a bunch of food sitting on my table right now waiting to go to friends/family.  

Does your surgeon have you doing a liquid diet pre-op?  Mine does.  My pre op appointment is 11/6, so I assume I'll be stopping the real food shortly thereafter.  I'm trying NOT to use that as an excuse to eat crazy. 

I hope we can stay in contact and go through this together!

 

Megan
