  1. 17th here too! I am so ready!!! I am pretty sure they will give you a food list at your nutrition class.
  2. Lori Ann, Wow. How tall are you? I noticed you are below your goa weight. Do you feel good?
  3. I have no idea. However, your higest date is July 2008, did you possibly mean 2007??
  4. WOW! 21 days till surgery. It is almost unbelievable! I have spent my whole 20's overweight & now at 33 I am finally going to make a difference in my body, self esteem, self image, self talk, etc. The list goes on & on. I am very excited & not at all nervous. I am going to start all clear liquid diet next monday, Dr.'s orders. Yesterday I started all liquids, with low carb drinks, water, tea & crystal light. I thought it would be easier to break me into the clear liquid phase. I did great! I am so happy to be starting a new journey in my life! I pray all of us will do well & never go back to the old habits that got us here. ~~Gina~~
  5. Hi there, I am scheduled for June 17th!!! I am so excited. I have Dr. Oh in Federaly Way with the St. Francis Hospital. It is a center of Excellence for Bariatric Surgery. I know everything will go great! Has anyone had surgery with him? He has been great so far! I can't wait till that wonderful day!!!!! I would love to hear of your surgery day experiences. Have a wonderful journey!!! God bless.
  6. Very good!!!! You & I are about the same situation. I am the same size you started at. I can hardly wait, my day is June 17th. It is 3 days before my 15 yr anniversary. I told my hubby it is the absolute best gift ever! He is very supportive & cheering me on. Keep up the good work. God bless!
  7. Your Dr. should be able to tell you. I will be staying overnight, my surgery is June 17th. I can hardly wait!!!!
  8. Wow. I hope my experience is just as smooth. I am sure it will be. I will be staying overnight though. I will be at the St. Francis Hospital in Federal Way, WA, they require it. I don't mind though. I hope you have a terrific recovery. My date is June 17th, I can hardly wait!!!!
  9. I am set for June 17th. My doc said lose 10% of my body weight, no sugar, no milk, eat 1/2 of what I normally do & don't eat after 7pm.
