Hi. I am scheduled for my surgery Nov. 30 2010. So started the liquid _ _ _ _( I can't even say the word or type it). Natural chocolate flavor Protein shakes (NOT). But so far so good. I am scared, excited, hopeful and hungry...Yogurt time. I am from BC Canada and don't know of anyone else around who has had this proceedure. Nice to have a place like this to touch base with others who know what it's like.

Hiya Daisymay,

I'm Angela joining you from the UK. I'm being sleeved the week after you on Dec 7th. I could have chosen the same day as you, but I turned it down because that would have meant getting it as a birthday present!!!

Although I can't wait, I didn't really fancy that LOL !!!

I've just started on the liquid torture, I have 3 weeks of it, lucky you to only have 2 weeks LOL !!!

Keep us posted on how it all goes, I'll be thinking of you on the day.

Best wishes
