  1. I'm in Orlando and will have mine done about a week before you. Good luck!
  2. I believe you just enter "https://groups.google.com/forum/#!forum/BPSSS" into your browser and there should be an option to join the group.
  3. Enter the name "Our July Journey" in the FB search box, use the arrow to select "groups" and hit enter...it's a few entries down the page. Request to join.
  4. Get healthy Zasha...it'll happen soon as time seems to fly (I can't believe half the year is gone already).Keep in touch and let us know how things work out!
  5. You're in.. I joined both too.
  6. For those interested, I started a Google Group for us named: The Bariatric Pal's Get Slim, Sexy, and Savvy Support Group. I believe you must have a google account to join. Here's the link: https://groups.google.com/forum/?hl=en#!forum/bpsss Let me know if you have issues joining the group. My email is mochagirl@zoho.com
  7. Hey...we're almost having our surgery at the same time. My doctor's office just called and there was an opening for 7/6, reporting at 8:30am...this is one day earlier from my original 7/7 date. I agreed, as I had already taken the week off and I'm so sick of this liquid diet.
  8. What about a Google group or Yahoo group - will that work for everyone?
  9. I totally understand about the sweet and cold options (I felt the same way - hot decaf tea helps me get through it)...can you have the unjury Protein chicken Soup option...it's warm and very tasty.
  10. Great idea - I wouldn't mind joining a private/closed FB group to share our thoughts, successes, challenges, pics, etc.
  11. @@stylewiz35 - my exact time hasn't been scheduled yet - will let you know when I get it.
  12. @heathercc1 - you are not alone with this mindset....but mine must change tomorrow because my 3-week liquid diet starts!
  13. OK @@Jennifer03 and @@stylewiz35 - we've got to have positive vibes on our "lucky" day: 7/7!!! :-)
  14. Great! We're on the same day!!!

    I can't wait until I get to this phase! That's encouraging that insurance will pay for it - I'll have to check with mine - I was prepared to pay for it myself.
  16. I start my liquid diet on 6/16 (my doctor wants 3 weeks in prior to surgery).

    How are you coming along with your pureed food? What is your new tummy tolerating?

    @@Cupcake, I have yet to have surgery, but I know I'll definitely need arms, tummy, and breasts done. Hopefully the face won't fall or deflate too much.

    I was ready too, but I think Mother Nature has other plans for me. I contracted a "bug" at the pre-surgery session 5/27 - and it's progressed to a nasty summer cold -- I've been flat on my back with nasal congestion, coughing, and runny nose for the past two days! I called the nurse and she told me to load up on Vitamin C and to call my physician - perhaps she can give me some antibiotics to get over it by Friday morning.

    I'm AA and will have RNY this upcoming Friday, June 5. Hoping for no complications and a smooth WL journey! ***UPDATE: I contracted a nasty cold with heavy congestion, so my surgery has been postponed until July 7th.
