  1. I am worried about the pre op diet. I am a person that when i get nervous or scared i don't eat. So i am hoping that will help me get through the liquid diet because i won't want food. question though... do you have to use the advantage shakes or can you use a protein powder you like? I know its got to be hard but like everyone is saying, focus on our goal! Good luck on your surgery!!
  2. Thank you i hope that we have fun. You all are giving me engorgement that i can do this.
  3. What kind of food are you able to tolerate?
  4. I am so glad that i will be okay by Oct then... This is a family cruise so i don't want to miss out spending time with everyone because i am sick. I am so excited but yet scared to death!!! I hope its normal to feel that way :-*
  5. Thank you so much.... You all have set my mind at ease. I have been sitting here freaking out thinking i better call them and say never mind i will do it this fall. I really don't want to wait but i don't want to be sick and miserable on my trip. My cruise is Hawaii October 4th :-)
  6. I am going to have my surgery in 6 weeks they are telling me. I have a cruise that is already paid for. Its the beginning of October. I am wondering if 3 months is going to be long enough for me to recover and get going with everything. I really could use some of you to chime in and tell me how it was for you after 3 months post op
  7. I have PCOS sadly :-( I was diagnosed with it when i was 21 and couldn't get pregnant. I am now 45 and am on my way in about 6 weeks to get my surgery. I hope it helps you if your getting the surgery.
