Hi Tammy, I am from Florida, I went to the store today and bought some of the isopure that I have heard others talk about on this site and also some additional protein shake powder to try another brand/flavor. Will let you know how it goes. I start my pre-op diet on Wednesday!

Hi Lou, Thanks for responding, yes Sanford is only about 30 minutes from me! Wow, you have done great! I am amazed that you are still on the site as it seems that people are most active in the deciding and waiting period but so nice of you to reach out. Well, I guess my biggest concern is #1, the pain after the surgery. I am a big baby and don't do pain well at all. I just hope it isn't too bad. Second I am afraid of having remorse and of not being successful. I think that if I was good at this, then I wouldn't be in this situation. I just hope I can stay positive and not get on a pity pot! Hope to hear more from you, any words of wisdom would be much appreciated. Roxanne

Hang in there Aline, just curious, what meds did you have to stop? I take Celebrex for joint pain. The only thing I was told to stop was aspirin.

Hi, I live in new Smyrna beach, travel to jax regularly as grandbabies are there. I will be having surgery on June 19th and would welcome any support! It is starting to feel real now.

Hi Tammy, I know, I am scared too, my date is June 19th, lets be buddies and help each other through this!

I was just thinking the same thing! Big changes needed!! I am planning to start my 2 week pre op diet on Wednesday this week. Scared but excited like everyone else!

Hi everyone, I live in New Smyrna Beach and am looking for any other Central Florida buddies for support! Surgery date is June 19th. Best wishes to all. Can anyone tell me how to do the cute images with BMI on your posts? Thx!

Fantastic! I am a nurse too!

I'll be your buddy, but I am a week after you on the 19th. Anyone want to be my buddy on the 19th?

Thanks Susan, Wow, you have done great!! How do I get the little body ticker on to my profile?

Thanks for responding. Congratulations! How are you doing? I am still trying to figure out how to even do this forum. I have no idea if I am responding just to you or if I am responding to everyone. I have Dr. Sebastien in Daytona Beach. Set for the 19th of June!

I am in NSB, looking for any local support!

Don't forget me on the 19th too!

Hi everyone, I had my endoscopy and figured while I was there I might as well do the colonoscopy that my PCP has been after me to get done. All went well, so another hoop jumped through! Got a little nervous just doing clear liquids for 1 day. Yikes!

Hi all, My date is June 19th, trying to stay calm and focused! So happy to find a place for support as due to my job I am not able to attend any groups!
