Omg so weak

This may be part of the problem. If you aren't drinking much you are probably dehydrated and dehydration causes headaches and weakness. You need to be drinking at least 64 oz of liquids in addition to the meal replacement shakes.

Drink up girl and I think you will feel better. You'd better get used to drinking without eating now because after surgery you will be drinking without eating for the rest of your life...and eating without drinking.

I have drank more today and I am a little better. I am still having headaches but not as bad. That is gonna be the worse part after surgery because the only time I drink anything is when I take my meds and when I eat. Gonna have to work on that extra hard. Thanks Susan!

Thanks Amy thats what I am going to do keep myself busy.

Dear Sonya,

I'm so sorry you are having such a rough time.  I promise it will all  be worth it in the end.  Just be your positive self and you will do fine.  We all have our problems (the easy way, right!!).  I just had a physician tell me this week I had taken the easy way to lose weight!   I was furious but put it off to him being ignorant about the subject.
My very best to you on your surgery and I will send a prayer your way for your new birthday.
Love,

Nancy

Thanks Nancy, all prayers are appreciated, and needed.

 Sonya,

I'm sorry you are having a hard time... I will tell you that this is the VERY WORST PART OF THIS.  Those first few days, going through food withdrawals are absolute hell.  Our doctor requires 8 days of that.  By day 5 or so I was like,  "who cares?  gimme some more carnation".   I had headaches and pains and was moody and cried and all kinda stuff like that. 

Keep busy.  organize bills and mail/change your filing system,  drag out all of your old pics.  you know, do the thing in your house that you have dreaded forever.  We took on a construction project to keep me busy.  Not the smartest idea (the banging killed me) but it definitely took my focus off of it.  

Yes, you will not be able to eat solids after surgery but at least then, you will have no hunger.  It gets easier.  

Thanks Missy, and I am like you I think this has got to the hardest part.

I don't understand why I was so different. I only had 2 days on liquids. But I am praying for you and Monday is soooooo close. Just pray and He will bring you through. Here's BIG hugs!!

Thanks so much Mayilyn. I know in the book it said a 2 day liquid diet but when I went to Dr.Olsen last week he said it was wrong in the book its a 10 day diet. So its been about 5 days for me I wont get 10 full days.Thanks for the hugs!!!

Sonya,
     Actually I had no idea what to expect then I received a letter and it told me what to do and the letter arrived 15 days before my surgery. I wished they would stick with one and let all do it. It seems so unfair. But it will help in the long run. Hang in there!
