  1. Good morning. Congratulations. Your surgery the day after mine. Good luck ?
  2. Congradulations. I'm starting my liquid diet on September 13 and my surgery is on September 23
  3. When I was at the doctor yesterday they told me that is the key to make the gas pain leave. They told me I must walk it out and push through. I'm so happy you are doing so well.
  4. I will be having my surgery on September 23?
  5. Good morning. Congratulations I'm so happy for you. I'm sure you'll do fine. Hope all goes well. Please keep us posted. Good luck and a speedy recovery....??
  6. I commend you for starting early. Not me I wont be starting a day earlier then I have to. Lol. I had my final appointment today and my surgeon told me the longer you do it the better it is. He suggested I do a full 2 weeks if I can ?
  7. No need to apologize I completely understand. I can be your long distance support. I live in NYC. Whenever you need to reach out feel free to do so. We need as much support as we can going through this..
  8. Omg that's amazing. Congratulations to you. I can only hope I am as successful as you are...?
  9. Good luck with everything. Hope you have a speedy recovery ??
  10. So wonderful to hear you are ok. Thank Goodness. After going what you've been through with this storm your surgery is nothing. I couldn't stop thinking of you as I was watching the news. The photos & the videos were just heartbreaking. I love the Bahamas always have. Been there several times to several of the islands both big &.small. I wish you nothing but the best and a speedy recovery. ??
  11. Yes I know 3 weeks from today ?
  12. Well thank goodness you're home. Wishing you a speedy recovery?
  13. I have to do the preop diet for 10 days. 2 shakes a day and weight watchers dinner. I can also have up to 1 cup of celery & carrots?
  14. Congratulations. I wish mine was over as well I'm scheduled on the 28th. I heard so many things about that gas pain that's what makes me nervous. But I also realize that everyone is different and so are their pain tolerance. Either way I have to go through it in order to have the surgery. Wishing you a speedy recovery.
  15. I was wondering as well. ??
  16. Hello. Wow that's scary. Hearing that makes me nervous
  17. Good luck that's 2 days before me ?
  18. Good luck with everything
  19. Good afternoon. Congratulations on your confirmed surgery date. Mine is September 23. Omg you live in the Bahamas I saw the news coverage regarding that storm. I live in NYC and thank God we are only suppose to get rain. God Bless you and your family during that time. Good luck and I hope you have a quick recovery. Keep me posted....?
  20. My preop diet will consist of 1 slim fast shake for breakfast, 1 slim fast shake for lunch and 1 frozen dinner such as lean cuisine, smart ones or weight watchers. I am also allowed 1 cup of celery & carrots daily. I was originally told it would be for 14 days prior to surgery but when I went to doctor in July because I lost more weight I was told I only needed to do the diet for 10 days. I hope when I go Tuesday the decrease the amount of days even more. Lol. I guess I'll have to weight & see......
  21. Good evening. Congratulations my fellow September 23 partner. I totally relate to everything you had to go through I had very similar requirements. Only thing left to do is see the surgeon again this coming Tuesday and going for preop bloodwork and ekg on this Wednesdsy. I'm dreading that preop diet as well. Nothing I can do to change it's part of the process so why complain about it. Good luck with surgery and I hope you have a speedy recovery. Please keep me posted ?
