Tomorrow is surgery day for me. I am getting excited! I am sure I will be nervous tonight and not sleep a wink.

HiCocoHuny I also use myfitnesspal. I love it! It is so easy to scan the food/drink I am having and have all the nutritional content.

We are moving to Falls Church area.

mmm, let us know if you find sugar free fudgesicles!

I am so sorry for your loss Diddle. I lost my mother October 24th. It will get better, but I know how much you must be hurting right now, I am so srry. :-(

Wow Diddle! You look great!

Hi Mtjoymom3 I am moving to Va in December.

Good luck! I will say a prayer for you. I am getting prepared, my surgery is Wednesday!

Good luck!

Usually if you have done weight watchers they may wave the nutrition classes. but that is dependent on each facility. I am not sure about going through civilian hospitals. It has taken me nearly 1 year to get to the surgery. I am afraid it sounds like it may be too late.

Wow! Congrats Panda! Brag all you want, you have worked hard and sacrificed a lot to get to this point.

Yes, I had to write down all the diets that I have tried before. I hadn't done weight watchers though. I also had to do a nutrition class on base for 3 months prior to surgery.

Hi Beth I have Tricare, my hubby is active duty. Have you talked to the Tricare office? I am getting my surgery done on post.

Hi Lucita! How are you feeling since your surgery? I have my surgery April 4th.

Hello! I am 38, turning 39 in June. Having surgery April 4th, anyone else 39 and holding?

I was asked why I chose to have surgery, how long I have been thinking about it, as well as how much help I will have after surgery ( I have a 7,5 year old and 18 month old). I was lucky, my Psychologist had RNY a few years ago.

Hi! Welcome to the group! Good luck!

Good luck! Hope everything goes as planned at your appointments Thursday.

Thanks everyone. I have to say that day 5 of the preop diet was really hard for me. I almost wanted to quit and resign to being fat the rest of my life! I was really hungry and cranky, lol. Then I had yesterday, day 6 , where I had a hard time getting in 500 calories, but I do always manage to get all my protein in. Oh well, only 1 more week, surgery is April 4th.

Hi Jessie! We are having surgery on the same day. Welcome!

Good luck George! Sounds like you are well prepared.

I am in San Antonio, TX.
