I'm too excited the new me begins on May 6th!!!!!! I can't believe this is actually going to happen. Yay!

My date is May 13th! I start the pre-op diet Monday....yikes!

I am starting my Pre-op tomorrow also. Have been trying to eat healthy the past few days. Feel I won't be able to eat as healthy today with Cinco d Mayo but promise to be better than normal...

I'm excited to follow you and look forward to the mutual support. Is there a way to private message phone numbers so we can text?

I'm going to get my premier shakes today! I can't have lean cuisines tho, lucky you! I'm raw veggies, plain oatmeal and shakes only.

Had my surgery May 2nd, tons of pain waking in recovery room, within 30 minutes of going to my room I was asking to get up to use restroom and go for walk, they let me but kept an eye on me. Guess normally it is 3-4 hours after getting in room that most people get up with lots of coaxing. Also they say must need a walker in the beginning, I just got up walked around the floor, then went back to the bed. Since I did things so early and so well and was as independent as I could be, went home the afternoon of the next day. Since I have been home I am almost off pain meds, still pretty painful to burp our cough though. My problem is can't find enough hours in the day to take in everything I am supposed to. It is painful to drink to much or too often.

May 20th, 15 days to go, seems like a long time. They have me on what they consider the fast track, 2 1/2 weeks of pre op education. Hoping I can lose the required 15 pounds by the 19th doing the shakes? Not too confident
