12 days till Surgery!

By Cmt7831

Went to my final appt with the surgeon today and signed my consent forms. Also have my pre-op blood work done. I can't believe it is only 12 days away now. Wow!!! I am still on my pre-op but now following my current surgeons diet. Not too bad 2 shakes and a 4 oz protein with 1/2 cup non starch veggies. I am also allowed 2 SF Jello's, 2 SF Popsicles and 2 Servings of Broth. Its been going good. I weighed in today at the doctors and I am now down to 291!!! Wooo Hooo!!! Down 27 lbs from my highest weight. I found out I will have to give myself injections of blood thinners at home for the first 3 days after surgery.... ahhh. It's ok I can do this it is only 3 days!!! I pray and hope the next 12 days go by real fast.

    Thank Tammy, Good luck to you too!! Don't worry it will be here before you know it. I am on Day 7 of my pre-op and it feels like any normal day for me know. I am use to it. I do get a little light headed at times but nothing too bad. When is your surgery?
