  • That was so funny! I did have a woman ask me when my baby was due and I looked at her and said "about 4 o'clock when the bus pulls up n drops her off"!!!! The look on her face was priceless. My l

    The reason I went to Mexico was financial reasons. Insurance would not cover anything. I had a great experience and have had 2 friends go to my doctor since I went. They also had the same great experi

Good luck Kimmie! I had surgery at Bailey this past Thursday. Everyone with that group is fantastic. All the office staff' date=' doctors, nurses, and Dr. Katsis and great. There would probably be some things they should work on. But, all in all, it was a good experience. If you can call any surgery a good experience. Lol......If you need to know something just ask. I will try to answer. Again, congrats!![/quote']

I will be having surgery at baileys on March 6th. I'm excited and nervous all at once. Wish it would just hurry and get here. I'm so sick of this liquid diet.

My surgery is 3/5 at Weight Wise in Edmond. Are you on the liquid diet for pre-op weight loss, or is that what your surgeon requires? I just have to do Clear liquids the day before surgery. I find it interesting how each facility seems to have developed their own way of approaching surgery.

How many days have you been on the preop diet, oknewme? It is rough. But, after about the third day, it gets better. I am 10 days postop. Can't wait to get to the soft diet this Thursday. I am ready for an egg and tuna. Never thought I would say that. Lol.........Hang in there. Do you have all of your preop testing finished?

My physician requires it. I laugh and sometimes say that I wish I had researched the pre-op diets instead of the surgeons. Good luck to you on Tuesday. We are so close.

You're right d. Every surgeon does something different. You would think there would be more standard diets. Good luck with your surgery!!

I have been on the diet since the 20th. Im to the point now that I just want the surgery over with so that I can get to the eggs and tuna. I hope everything is going good for you since surgery.

Everything is good. I really had zero pain after surgery. Just sore, but not pain. I didn't fill the prescription for pain meds. It took me about 3 nights before I would sleep in bed. I slept in the recliner. Now, everything is just normal. They will have you wear a binder of 2 weeks. I really supports your stomach and makes it feel better. Which surgeon do you have? I had Katsis. He is really great. Are you finished with all your testing?

Good luck on Wednesday!

There are so many people on here that I hope I get the chance to meet sometime. Maybe i can meet some of you at the support groups meetings.

I had Dr Varnell, had an awesome experience with him and the hospital! I'm a little over a month out and down a total of 42lbs, including preop..

Wow, CheriseValerie, that is a fantastic weight loss. Congratulations!!
