Just like my full liquid diet, clear liquid diet this stuff is not as bad as I expected I got the sparkling lemon flavor over ice not bad at all.... I just hope everything else goes this good for my surgery tomorrow (fingers crossed)..... So how long till this stuff starts to kick in???

Oh, girlfriend.....hang on! It may take 30 min, it could take longer, but once it kicks in, it will not stop for hours. I started mine about 11 a.m. and it finally stopped right about bedtime. I didn't have any issues the next morning.

I did this exactly one week ago with surgery on Friday at noon. I pray you have a wonderful nursing staff to take care of you, that your surgeon is as good as mine is, that they give you several small stitches to help alleviate scaring, and you are made as comfortable post-op as I was. Keep us posted on how it's going......GOOD LUCK!!!

Hey my surgery is tomorrow too! So nervous...I wasn't before but then they rescheduled and now I am really anxious! Tomorrow night and early! What time are you scheduled for?

Yup it just started kicking in, but it just doesn't seem real to me just yet.... Oh and my surgeon uses staples (((( & that is exactly what I was thinking about is the scaring hope

Beetracy I'm so happy someone else is having surgery tomorrow too!!! I'm tentatively scheduled for 7:30am need to check in at 6:00 am...

So what are you doing to get ready? I'm finishing laundry and some lasting minute cleaning then I'm gonna pack my bag for the hospital all I'missin is gasx that I've been hearing really helps

I made thanksgiving dinner and am having a nice holiday with my kids and husband. My bag is packed and house is clean, I need to do a few dishes but other than that I am ready. So, I am just relaxing and getting a black Friday shopping list together for my husband!

Miss Michi....my surgeon used staples inside (to close the sleeve) and stitches were used to close the sutures of the incisions where the laproscopic machine points were placed. Hopefully this will be the same for you.

I wish both you and Beetracy a peaceful sleep and keep the faith! Your surgical teams will take good care of you!

Good luck!!

Thanks so much! Heading to bed soon!

Miss Michi friend me! And keep me in the loop on your progress!!!
