Have to admit that today I bought three new pairs of cute undies two sizes smaller than what I am right now.

I only have to do a two day liquid diet with no bowel prep.

Do u mix it with milk or water?

Getting more nervous. RN called today along with pre-registration. Still don't have time yet for my surgery on the 29th. Good thing is I only have to do a two day liquid diet and no bowel prep. Trying to stay away from the last supper mentality. :/

Yeah!!! Soo happy for you!!

My surgery is the 29th of this month

$400 is what I had to pay.

I was initially going for the band at first. After research I decided bypass. Do all ur research and make the choice that works best for you.

That's weird, never heard of that!?!

I got my date!!!! 1/29/13!!! My preop appt next Tuesday and I am to hold my fish oil, birth control, and pain meds (aspirin and Motrin)!!

It is a Jackson Pratt drain. Very simple and easy to use. The nurse will teach u what to do with it. They leave it in until your drainage minimal. This way you body can work on healing vs having to reabsorb the drainage. I am an RN and have seen lots off people go home with them it is very simple. You just empty the grenade shape container and compress it. While compressed cap it up again. This is what creates the suction. That simple.

Thanks, though do wish I would at least have a date. Hopefully tomarrow I will find out. My luck she will call when I am working!

I know how u feel. Just want to start have this surgery so I can start the rest of my life. Today I went and enrolled in anytime fitness.

Very nervously waiting for a lady named Jessica to call me with my surgery date and pre surgery appt. on pins and needles. She can't call soon enough!!! Though I don't think she is going to call back today because it is 4 pm and they close at 5. Trying to keep distracted and not working!

All I have left is to meet the surgeon and set date. How long did it take everyone from surgeon to surgery? Already approved insurance wise. Thanks, getting nervous and excited!!

I just have my psych appt on 12.7.12 and appt on 12.10.12 to go over all my test results.
