  1. Don't know if I'll sleep much...fear of being late.
  2. 8:00 am surgery! 17 hours left in my fat suit...will be grateful for the help of my surgeons to begin the process of shedding it.
  3. Tomorrow!!!! No time yet. Find out later today.
  4. I'm a terrible patient. I'm always up wandering and trying to go home early. I do listen to instructions but am never pleased to be confined.
  5. I'm in Erie PA. Not at all nervous. I am a post op nurse so I'm in the surgical world all day. Just anxious for tomorrow to get done so I can get in there. Feels like I've been waiting forever!
  6. Wed morning is mine. Don't have arrival time yet. Get that tomorrow afternoon!! So freaking excited!
  7. Its a cardiac test to ensure your heart is fit enough to withstand the surgery. There is one using a drug called thallium and one where you get on a treadmill. My Dr didn't req one.
  8. This is the end of my 3rd day...this a.m. I was down 4 lbs. I wasn't required to have a stress. Don't sweat it...you will do great.
  9. Ok in 2 days on all liquids and I'm down 4 lbs. We will see what my arch Nemesis the scale says tomorrow morning.
  10. Diet ok so far...not as bad as I thought it would be. Determined to do this!
  11. You're welcome. Can't wait till Wednesday ...my surgery day is fast approaching ...hope I am as successful as you've been
  12. I'm having no problem going. No benefiber needed here
  13. I have only told one person at work. Not including my gastroentorologist. I don't want to listen to anyone's bullcrap about just diet and exercise.
  14. Good for you. I wish you all the best!
  15. Love the seafood. Hope I can still tolerate it later as some of my protein.
  16. "Last supper" oysters on the half shell, shrimp cocktail, and a margarita. Liquids here I come. 7 days till surgery!
  17. 40 c-d depending on maker. I would like to keep c cup but be 32-34. I can see my feet but if the boobs deflate I don't want them sagging and hiding my new belly button (I've declared it missing years ago). I am nervous, but not a lot. I'm a recovery room nurse so I have a good grasp of what is expected. Anxious, but can't wait for next week!
  18. Bariatric Advantage has a huge selection. Super fast shipping. I also got cytosport. 20 g of protein more like gatorade. My nut. Also has a recipe for double strength milk...1c skim milk with 5T of nonfat dry milk. You could add it to any shake mix and get extra protein.
