Yes!!! very excited!!

Congratulations!!!

oh and to add.. I did lose 5.5 # over the weekend!!!

Angie-- I started mine on Friday ( my surgery is Apr 11). I started early ( was supposed to start on Wed because my husband was going out of town for the weekend and I thought being by myself would help the first few days. I didn't know what kind of emotional roller coaster I would be on. I don't know if I was crabby or not.. I wasn't to myself...LOL The first 2 days were hard but it does get easier. Tip.. dont watch TV... there are a bazillion food commercials!!

Lisa --thank you! I will keep you informed. Kathy

My surgeon is Dr. Ramaswamy at University Hospital in Columbia. I would love to stay in touch!! Kathy

Hi Lisa! I'm not from St.Louis but I am from Jefferson City. I am scheduled for April 11.

I'm glad I made it, too I discovered that when I try to view the group from my IPad It tells me that I have to have a password but on the PC.. it doesn't. Must be something with the app. Yes, I am on liquids only. I just got creative and added some fruity flavored unjury Protein packets to Jello. Will let you know how that experiment turns out. I have never been a milk drinker or an ice cream eater so it is difficult to drink the milk type Protein Drinks. I have no problem getting my 64oz of other fluids in during the day. I easily drink more than that in a day. At least dehydration won't be an issue for me. Kathy

Hello!! I am scheduled for April 11. I started my preop diet (60 gm of protein via shakes and clear liquids only) yesterday. I have had all of my preop visits and blood work. I meet with anesthesologist on April 10. I think my nerves have kicked in, too. This is becoming REAL ... very quickly

Thank you!

The group is asking me for a password????
