February 2011 Bandsters?

Hi All,

I have a surgery date of 2/11/11. I have a BMI of 35.9 with several comorbidities. I am hoping to hear soon that I have been approved. I have been medically cleared by everyone except the Pope, himself.

Is there anyone out there who is scheduled for February?

wow that isnt much

how many slim fast per day?

when is your surg?

I have a 7 day preop that consists of two things: Slim Fast and Crystal Light. I am on day 3 and doing well so far, but the first two days were really, really hard. Everyone I talked to said that the first 4 days would be the hardest thing I have to do - it only gets easier from here on out. That remains to be seen, but it got me through the first 2 days so I'll keep thinking that :)

Good luck to you! When is your surgery?

goooooood luck girl !!!

biiiiiiiiig sigh

i feel your pain

and fear

and excitement

Well my Pre-op diet starts tomorrow and consists of MediFast brand foods. Shakes, soups, and not much else. Very low cal and unsatisfying. I am going to be on the for 2 weeks and surgery is scheduled for the 28th! I am so excited but really scared at the same time. It is such a life change that I am freaking out a little but I am so excited to get healthy and be comfortable in my own skin.

My pre op diet starts tomorrow I am on clear liquids for two days. My surgery is on the 18th. I am getting a little anxious but I am ready.
