Hello all! I've been reading the forum for the past couple of months, thank you all for the great advice and sharing your experiences. It's been very helpful and informative! I met with the surgeon a week ago today, my surgery date is June 26. Anyone else for June?

I'm a June 11 too. (Atlanta area) I am also excited' date=' nervous, and scared. This is a huge journey. I know it is the right thing for me and others to do, but anxiety is still there. I know WE can do this. Buddies are great. Wishing you a smooth easy first day of prep shakes.[/quote']

I totally agree. I can't stand the shakes but it's all part of it and I want to make surgery as easier or them as I can. I also know this is something I have to do. I have to overcome the what if's.

Hi all' I am having my surgery onJune 5th..Just strating my one week liquid/high protein diet. I hope everyone is doing great. I am so excieted!!!

My surgery is set for June 3. I'm in upstate New York. I don't have a pre-op diet or endoscopy. Lost 12 lbs so far and am ready to get the surgery done...just getting everything set in my pantry and making my list of things to take to the hospital. I will be home by myself after surgery. My best friend that was to help me has left me high and dry. But I went through gall bladder surgery by myself. I can get through this as well. I love all the support everyone gets on this forum.

I am having surgery with Dr. Simon on the following Monday June 10th! Best of luck to you! Keep in touch.

Hi June 21st )

June 10, like NikNak!

So day 6 on my prepo liquid diet and its not going bad at all I was more concerned going back to work And being on a liquid diet but after last night nothing bother me at all,it went smoothly.. Better than expected,Maybe it's just my motivation Or knowing I have to do this in order to have my surgery and to have a healthier life. Plus a good support system like you all and my family and friends that are behind me hundred percent. Everyone I told about my surgery was and is very supportive. My husband is too but still a little unhappy because he's not going to be here for it... They say duty calls so he's on-duty. But the upside to that is when I do see him it will be a new litter me.
