Did u have any headaches Vanna?

Lol I hear that!

I know what u mean!! I quit coffee 7 days prior to my pre op liquid diet...cuz I didn't want it to happen all at the same time. I had a headache for 3 days..by day four I was good to go. Good luck to you with that...it gets easier!

Good luck!

Good luck!

Eek!! Its fast approaching! Lol excited to the point where already I'm having a hard time sleeping

Lol I know I'm super stoked!! The Bariactric Team @ TWH is fantastic! I've been so happy with how they treat u. Theu made the experience a great one for me. You and Me will definitely have to keep I touch

Haha I have a countdown on my phone as well! I'm the day after you good luck to u. Soooo excited

Yea the broth I'm allowed to have has to be 10cal/serving. I have maybe two a day. And every morning I make sugar free carb free jello just as a filler and something when I feel I'm bored with having the same thing all the time lol but it will all be worth it in the end..thats what keeps me going

Lol I wish I could open my fridge and one sweep empty it. I have kids so I cant do that lol but I'm doing well on making tjeir meals and sticking to my shakes and broth and jello lol Is ur ensure liquid form or powder? Mine is powder form, vanilla...its gross lol but I'm allowed to add pure cocoa powder to it and its soooo much better. 3 weeks worth ran me about $240.00

Wow that was super fast! Here in Ontario its a minimum 2 year waiting list lol so I thought I did good at almost a year. Yea I'm currently doing the Optifast liquid diet...been on it for 5 days now and have to be on it for 3 weeks (eek!) Surprisingly its a lot easier than I expected. I wish I could eat tho, I won't lie lol I miss food.

Hi Paul I'm on Ontario just outside of Toronto. My journey started in july 2012 when I went for my Orientation and then thru Aug-Dec I had about 7-8 appts and met the surgeon March 1st. There's a team of 5 surgeons in this program in Toronto at Toronto Western Hospital. My surgery is scheduled for April 5th. Have you had ur surgery yet or have a date yet?

Just wondering if there's any canadians here still in pre-op stages. I know the process for qualifying for GB is abit different than the US. Curious to find out how long some have been on the "list" and such. Thanks

Yay congrats! Wish u a speedy recovery

That's great! Mine is on April 5th I started my journey to have this surgery almost a year now. The time is fast approaching and its exciting and nerve racking lol

Congrats Krystal!!
