Hi Everyone! My Name is Kristy and my surgery is scheduled for May 3, 2011. I'm very excited but also very nervous. I've been on the pre-op diet now for 8 days and I did really well my first 6 days, (losing 8 pounds) but the past two days I have stayed the same..so I'm getting alittle nervous that I won't hit the 15 pounds my surgeon requested that I lose. I have not cheated, but it is also almost that time of the month, so I'm hoping thats whats going on, but its just alittle frustrating. I'm am very excited about this new journey!!

Thanks for reading!

Congrats on you date! As I was reading your post, I was wondering (even before you wrote it) if you were getting close to TOM. Just keep following your doctor's instructions and everything will work out for you.

Hugs

Hi Kristy and welcome. I am being sleeved on the 3rd as well. I have been on my pre-op diet for 5 weeks and 2 of them were stalled, I have lost a total of 15 pounds on it and I am hoping that is enough for my surgeon. Maybe I will lose a few more before next Tuesday, TOM was an issue for me as well.

Thanks Chicadee!! Your doing great!! Lets keep in touch, I would love to now how things are going!!

I just saw you mention in the other post that you are in CT. So am I, My surgery is in Derby, CT.

How funny is that!! My surgery is in Bristol, CT. Can you tell me how you get that weight tracker thing to your profile? I made one, but I don't know how to post it to my profile, if you could help me that would be great!
