I'm so excited, nervous, scared, anxious, and elated....I have a surgery date scheduled for December 28. I only have a 3 day liquid diet scheduled which I find odd that it isn't longer. However, I will take it. If anyone has any advise for the hospital and the first few days/weeks after I would greatly appreciate it........a new year, and a new me. Can't wait.

Congratulations on getting a date and so quickly! I don't go until January so I don't have any advice but I'm rooting for you!

Thanks.....and good luck to you as well. The closer it gets, the more nervous I get. My 7 year old is so excited because I will finally stop drinking soda. Just hearing him say that makes me know that I am doing the right thing to help give me tools that I need to get healthy for myself and for my kids......keep me updated with how you are doing.

Melissa, looks like we are having our surgery on the same day. I'l have mine at the Forest Park Medical Center in Dallas on the 28th. My doctor has me on a 2 week pre-op diet, so I have 11 days to go. Good luck!
