Please keep these fellow members in your prayers this week.
I was a liquid diet as well. I survived going to my family's house on Thursday and only having my optifast. I then had my dad in from out of town and cooked a dinner on friday and was just as successful. I didn't have anything but my optifast. I am ten days away from surgery and now feel even more ready and sure I will be able to do this!
Dottie,
I'm glad you found us. Feel free to post openly about anything that is on your mind. We are a small yet very supportive group.
Mentally I have told myself I already have my pouch, and have eating as if I were post op. I've been on a mostly liquid, high protein diet since early October. I've done so well I don't have to do the 2 week Opti Fast program before surgery.
Physically I've tried to up my exercise. The PT I met with gave me a serious of strength training exercises to do with exercise bands.
You'll be in my prayers - your surgery is SO soon!

Dottie, Welcome to the group. I am glad to hear you have a date set. I am scheduled 12/9. Remember it is normal to have nerves and 2nd thoughts and to be emotional. I have read many posts from vets that say its all normal. Keep telling yourself how beautiful you are, and your beauty deserves to be shown in a healthy body. This time next week you will be all done. Enjoy the road to your new life. Please keep us updated.
