I finally got through all the evaluations and doctor appointments and finally got my surgery date....january 17th! I have started my pre-op diet today and it's been ok so far! Im getting kind of nervous but I know it will all be worth it in the end!

Congratulations! I also have a date of January 17th for surgery. I am getting excited but am also a little nervous. What does your pre-op diet consist of as my MD has not told me to be on one yet? I see him on the 7th and perhaps that is when they will go over that. Best of luck with everything.

Congratulations as well. My surgery date is the 18th. I'm also 260 lbs. give or take a few pounds depending on the day. I'm nervous and excited as well.

I wrote a stent about the Protein shakes I'm taking and they're really good (in the thread, "what's your favorite pre-op protein shake). I've not as hungry as I thought I would be and they're sugar free.

Keeping my fingers crossed for you. I hope these next few days go fast and that your recovery is swift. Hang in there.
