What a great attitude

Merry Christmas to you also! My surgery is the 26th and Christmas can't get here soon enough for me.

I also have to do a 2 wk pre op. My instructions are to have a protein shake 4 times a day with water in the middle to fill the gaps.

Way to go! You look amazing.

I'm really happy for you. That means a lot to a woman

I'm scheduled for December 26th. Anyone else on this date? I start my pre op diet on 12/12. I'm truly not nervous. I'm ready to get this over with and start a new (thinner) life. The anticipation is the hardest. I've researched and researched until I'm tired of making lists. I did some shopping this weekend and got a mug warmer, demitasse spoons, cocktail forks, small dishes, a couple of king sized pillows, some REALLY soft pillow cases, a soft cuddly blanket and a new nightgown. I have been researching protein drinks until I'm blue in the face. I envy all those people who only have to do 1 week preop and those who get to have real food. Figure it is getting me ready for after surgery when I can't eat solid food. I'm more nervous about the mushy stage. I don't like mushy stuff so figure I'm going to be on these protein shakes awhile! Good luck to everyone going ahead of me. Please come back and post your results so I know what I need to change. What did you wish you had taken to the hospital? What do you know now that you wished someone would have told you about? Good luck everyone. Here's to a new us in 2013!I

Good luck to you - You'll do awesome!!

Good luck to you - mine isn't until 12/26 and I'm SO READY!

I also will not be discussing with many people - but I have a question. How do you explain your fantastic weight loss?

Mine is the 26th too Starting my preop diet on 12/18.

Mine is scheduled 12/26. Pre Op diet starts 12/12. I'd love to join everyone and could certainly use the support.
