I'm with you pitot guy. I start on Monday. Are you doing optifast?

Welcome! This site is filled with people who can relate.

Picked up the optifast today. I thought I was starting it on Tuesday but my paperwork says Monday.i had plans for to go out for dinner. I guess that's not happening lol.

The same thing happened to me. It felt like another level of commitment o the surgery....

It will be a challenge but it's nice to know I'm not the only one going through it. The reward of good health and the feeling that I will be able to really start living will certainly help . We will have to compare notes...

Wow this is really getting real! I pick up my optifast tomorrow and start the 2 week preop diet Tuesday. My emotions are all over the place.

Prayers said for a smooth recovery!

Congrats! We are surgery buddies!

Congrats!

That would be great .

Congratulations on getting your date! I go the day before you and am both anxious and excited.

I have 2 weeks of optifast (shakes, bars, and soups) and a cup of water based vegetables ie lettuce) I don't start until the second week of July. Anyone else have to do optifast?

Congratulations! I know u have been anxiously waiting for a date.

I can totally relate! It feels like a go in cycles and this is the 400th time around.

We are surgery buddies!

Congrats! What a major accomplishment! Hoping you get a date soon.

Good luck! Sending a prayer for a smooth recovery.

FMLA papers are in and being processed. This is really starting to feel real. I'm 21 days from starting my preop liquid diet.

Thanks pittguy! You too!

I'll be right in front of you on the 23rd. I'm feeling excited and nervous at the same time.

I'll be taking pictures of the airline tray and seatbelt if I ever fit. I stopped trying to use it years ago. Congratulations!

Sending prayers for a smooth recovery!
