    Question wish me luck

    I am going to have my surgery one week from today. Did anyone else have food mourning? I think to myself after I eat something "this may be the last time I eat this. I am supposed to be on my 2 week liquid/one meal diet and I haven't done very well. Should I postpone my surgery? I really want to commit to this but I am scared. I don't have a lot of support from my family but I do have a good friend who had a sleeve about 5 months ago. She can do so I can too???? Am I just getting cold feet? Did anyone else go thru this? I really need some support right now. someone please respond. thanks

    Its normal to have all those thoughts running through your head before surgery. It is lifechnging in the best way. Dont give up on the preop diet, start again right now and tell yourself you can have whatever treat you want later. It will make it easier on you surgery wise if you do stick to the preop as best you can so your liver can shrink. But, you are human and humans make mistakes. Dont beat yourself up abouf it:-)
