My surgery date is two weeks from today (9/20). I can feel my anxiety start to rachet up. I started my 1000-calorie diet today in preparation as instructed. I've been cutting back quite a bit after my last weigh-in, so going to 1000 hasn't been too bad, at least today :)

Thanks for asking! Things have gone pretty well mostly, except I seem to have a pull/strain in my right abdominal wall. I talked to nurse this morning who advised ice, Tylenol, and an abdominal binder. I'm a pretty active person, so this is a bit frustrating. Getting fluids/shakes/vitamins/yogurt etc in each day, and it's getting a bit easier every day.
