I have retaken over the Compilation thread as of June 15th and just got it up to date. Please realize I had surgery June 4th and I'm still struggling a bit. If anyone sees someone post in the section that is outside of June mainly a thread called "Any June Sleevers" which is located in the preop section and not June section, please post their name at the end of this thread or direct them here. It will help me keep up. Unfortunately, I can't be online as long as I used to presurgery.

Thank you so much. My prayers continue to go out to those that had surgery and to those that are coming up on their surgery. Best wishes for speedy recovery to all.

Edited June 19, 201214 yr by MinaT

OMG! Started preop diet today, so far I'm ok. It's only been a few hours. We shall see in a day or so. I'm really starting to get nervous now. I've been alright so far, but I knew that when I started the diet I would also start freaking out. I am. I am 5 days out now. June 19th has ever looked so close but seemed so far before.

I've seen quite a few differences in preop diets/lengths. I'm so glad I only have 5 days. Mine consists of:

3-4 meal replacement shakes/day

5-6 servings of cream of wheat/rice, non-chunky low fat low sugar yogurt, low fat puree Soup, unsweetened applesauce, sugar-free pudding

48-64 oz. H2O or other sugar free caffeine free beverages

I can also have veggie juice, broth, sugar free Jello and popsicles or Water ice

I started this morning with a Protein shake. I now know why a lidded cup was suggested: Protein shakes smell awful! Tasted ok but the smell was wicked.

So far that's all I've had except some water to take my meds. I'm so nervous right now that I'm not even hungry. Weird.

Dadto2,

I have seasonal allergies myself and yesterday I was sneezing and post nasal and all that jazz so I called my doc and she said I can take my Claritin right up til the night before surgery to keep things cleared out. I take it as needed so it wasn't on my list when I did my appointment. Usually by this time I've had my allergy fun and I'm good til Sept but my neighbors have been doing yardwork like crazy and it rained yesterday. A perfect storm for me. If you usually take something and haven't already, check in with your doc. They may let you take it. If you don't they may be able to give you something.

Just my 2 cents. I believe you and I are going the same day for our surgeries. (June 19). T-minus 5 days and counting! Oh, I know it's a few days early but just so I don't forget, cause I will: Happy Father's Day!

Thanks for replying about the FB page. I have not slept in a few nights so I took something last night and got some sleep!

Not a problem at all!

I'm glad you got some sleep. I haven't slept well in days either. Not good for either of us

It seems everyone's preop diet is slightly different. Mine consists of 6 glucerna (I begged to use Atkins instead), 2 no fat or low fat yogurts with sugar substitute, 2 8oz servings of 100%juice, and all of the sf no calorie drinks i want up to the day before surgery. The day before surgery is nothing but clears. I am so allowed sf Jello during my preop.

Good luck to all the sleevers today and those I missed over the past few days. My prayers are with you all.

Hey....me too!!! I'm having mine on June 25 at Kaiser here in Ca. Say prayers for me too!

Yep! Going to Juarez =) That is the only thing that causes me any concern lol I know we'll be fine but Juarez is admittedly a little scary!! Being in DFW area though' date=' it made more sense to fly to El Paso instead of San Diego. Plus Star Medica is supposed to be an amazing hospital!! I'm just happy to have someone in my "neck of the woods" having the surgery on the same day. I hope we can keep in touch =)[/quote']

You will love it...never seen so many nice people caring and clean hospital.

Lehg520 thank you so much for the Father's Day wishes! We are both due on the 19th for our surgeries and that is awesome as well.

Thanks for the advice on the allergies. So far the coughing has started going away. Still a little persistent, but slowing a lot now. Fortunately the rest of the symptoms have all but disappeared.

Good luck on your surgery!

Eric

Eric,

Yay! I found someone who shares my day! Good luck to you as well. We're gonna do great!. I'm having some issues right now with 2nd guessing myself and coupled with the pre-op diet, I have been a B!tc#. I'm excited one minute, terrified and depressed the next.

Glad to hear your allergies are letting up. I think I'm just going to keep taking the Claritin anyway just to be safe. Last thing I need is to be stuffy, sneezing and coughing while trying to have surgery. I don't know if I could handle having it postponed at this point.

Off to bed now. I'm hungry and out of food for the day. Figure I'll just go to bed and forget about it.

-Lauren

Prayers and positive thoughts to all having surgery today. Also, continued prayers for healing and strength to all that have already had surgery.

I'm from the DFW area as well and have a June 29th surgery with Dr Rodriguez! Yay! Someone close to me!! So excited to find you =)

I'm near downtown FW. Been here about two years.

Thinking of and praying for great surgery experiences for all our June 15th sleevers!

My prayers are with all June 15 sleevers! I have started the preop diet today! Game on!

prayers for all sleevers that I've missed their surgery dates the past few days and those that are today!

back at work today and sip sip sipping my protein shake!!

Everyone on having surgery today, prayers and well wishes your way! Let us know how thing go!

Okay everyone we have the following June Sleevers coming up on their life changing dates!

Saturday, June 16, 2012 (unless I didn't see a change here)
