Prayers to everyone that is now on the losers bench. Hope you all heal quickly. Heading to the hospital for pre op testing today. Surgery December 17th. Getting closer.

Anyone hear from Vicki? Not sure if I missed her post or not.

I thought I added my name but didn't see my post. Nicole Ncharette@aol.com

Who is your surgeon/hospital? Having my surgery at St. Elizabeth's in Brighton, MA.

Thanks! Just ordered some.

Awesome! Good luck tomorrow and sending prayers that you'll come out safe and okay.

My dietician said do a modified diet. maybe start with Protein shake for breakfast. lunch salad with a protein on it. And healthy dinner. Chix fish meat with side salad veggies. I did have whole grain rice at dinner. The small microwave ones. Water water water. I also had a Greek yogurt in between breakfast and lunch. And cut up green peppers in between lunch and dinner. Then week before surgery I would do shake for breakfast and lunch and same dinner above unless they stick you on a liquid diet prior to surgery. if you can get some exercise in there too, that helps. I have 15 to lose prior to surgery too.

Anesthesiologist will be more apt to cancel you. its very unsafe to put you under with a cough. Chances of pnemonia. Plus coughing will hurt your pouch.

Do you have a shaker cup with wire ball in it?

That's awesome idea and so doable except the day we have surgery and days after. But I will do it up til surgery day December 17th. At least my legs will be stronger. Lol

How do you like the Jarrow protein? Is it the unflavored powder? I was going to order

Prayers to you that they let you go forward. And strength if they decide its best to wait. sorry, but know we are here to support you in any way through this.

Anyone use Jarrow brand unflavored protein powder????

I'll be happy to be able to look down and not see stomach. Lol

Welcome Jessica. I'm having mine in Boston on December 17th.

Welcome and we share the same surgery date. Feel free to in box me if you want to keep in touch.

It will be a lightening deal today on Amazon at 5:59 PST today. Not sure of the price but it may be a good deal. The current price is $34.63.

Hope he feels better!!!

It's fixed. Thank you! Sorry I hope it didn't take you a lot of time to fix. Every time I looked my eyes were crossing. Lol. Thanks again.

Does it look that way to you or does it look normal? Like I said maybe its me. Lol

Why does the list of December surgeries look they way it does? Maybe it's just because I'm viewing on my cell but their is codes everywhere.

Just curious if there is any helpful cup that you all use to drink your water liquids? Straw no straw?

I was approved and I only have hypothyroid (under active thyroid) and sleep apnea. And obviously a high BMI. Morbidly obese. I think you have to prove so many years of failed diets.
