All of us giving ourselves a jump start to the new year and a new us, Welcome!!

Hopefully we can help and check on each other as a journey begins.

I'm Banjo and my surgery date is Dec 17th!

Kellbell82, kriscakes7, lorigardner, and futuremrsh, are you out there?!

How about other december divas?

Can you tell I am not feeling well, so many typos and not bothering to fix them !!

Banjo257- not nauseous. Sorry for the typo!

I am scheduled for 12-14 and day 3 of preop. So funny how everyone's diet is different. My dr wants me to have one meal a day dying preop. So 4 oz of protein and a cup of veggies and the other two meals are shakes. Have to admit that this is making it much easier and getting me ready to measure everything in my new life

No apology needed. You just sounded so good I figured you couldn't be nauseous, but maybe you are tougher than me. I'm a wimp when my stomach is upset.

Congratulations and the very best wishes to you!

What a great attitude! You are an inspiration.

Welcome skinnymoo! Glad to see you here. First pre op diet day down for me. Ended up with a nagging headache' date=' but excited to finally get started. How was everyone elses? Banjo, are you there? You OK?[/quote']

Thanks Lori! So it's day 2 pre-op and the caffeine withdrawal headache is by far the worst part for me! I did good yesterday though and am ready for my strawberry shake Breakfast ! Good luck today!

i love the name to this ! my surgery is december 19th

Well I guess I am still a December Diva... I will be banded 4 yrs on the 30th and I am 202 lbs down....yay!!!!!!

I am happy to be part of the December bandwagon! My date is 12/14! Day 6 of liquids and have some diarrhea! Feeling good! Had bad headaches first 3 days. Pre-op tests this Friday and have lost 6 lbs!!!!!

I just started my pre op diet Monday and I'm down 8 lbs according to the scale. I'm sure it's water weight but I'll take it!

Can someone please tell me if it's normal to have watery stools on my 6th day of pre- op liquids?

December 28th. So excited. So this year my new year's resolution to lose weight should actually work, right? Lol

My date is December 13th... Can't wait....

I like the EAS AdvantEdge Protein drinks... 17 grams of protein, 3 net carbs.

I'm scheduled for December 20! On day 6 of pre-op diet (shakes, clear liquids, and sugar free jello) I could eat my left arm but I'm very optimistic!
