Hey I got here late I'm March 6th. :D I have my moments of fear or apprehension but not many.

Hey, Shazini, my surgery is on the 6th, too. And I feel just the same - mostly feel great about it, a little apprehensive at times, but not often, and not for long. I am looking forward to having this done!

March 11 here. see my Dr. on the 5th for pre-op app. getting more nervous as the days go by.

We are on the same day. I am super excited, but nervous at the same time. I am sure we are going to be ok

Mine is March 7th :)

Mine is March 7th :)

Finally someone else on March 7th! I was beginning to think I was the only one on that date. I start pre-op liquid tomorrow. Good luck to you! We will do great!

Good Morning all does anyone have suggestions on when is the best time to weigh my self? I have been weighing myself in the morning about 5-10 minutes after waking. Any HELP would be appreciated... <_<

I have been on my preop diet for 5 days now already lost 11 pounds and finally getting full off a can of progresso light soup lol. 7 more days left and 1 with all liquids very excited to see what lays ahead.

I always weigh myself in the morning after going to the bathroom, but before getting in the shower. I hope this helps!

Day 5 of pre op diet with 3 shakes a day and as hard as it is for me to believe it has actually gotten easier. Smells..smells..smells..as long as I do not smell food, I forget it even exsists. Surgery on Friday, can not wait! Can not believe it got here so soon. Especially CAN NOT BELIEVE I HAVE NOT CHEATED ONCE! :)

hey FaithOnly looks like 3/11 is our day!! If i dont see my dr. till 3/5, there isnt a whole lot of time left for pre-op diet then right? Nothings been mentioned so far? does it have to do with your current build/weight? thanks

@nicole1974 my surgery is friday as well. start my liquid diet today. thanks the tip. I will avoid food smells all week

Smells are the worst. I am smelling food everywhere even places I never smelled food before lol.

Thanks! I just started the preop diet today. 2 Protein shakes and a small dinner. Gonna be fun. Lol!! I was supposed to start Friday but had to wait until I could get the shake mix. :)

Mine is just to shrink the liver size before surgery.

Scheduled for 03.07 @ True Results Houston...I'm also nervous. Wishing everyone the best.

If I were you I would check with my dr because originally I was scheduled for the 2/27, but because when I got the call about being approved I was not told to do the pre op diet,therefor like you I thought the same and when I went to my pre op appointment I was told differently and they had to reschedule my surgery.
