My date is june 17 th.

I have two weeks left until surgery. I worry about blood clots. I have to take the shots for 14 days after. Nothing about the surgery bothers me except that.

Thanks ladies I can't wait and I am trying not to worry. I am new at this and trying to figure out how to responded to post. I hope this is right.:)

You are so right thank you.

Hi Tammy,

I am from Florida, I went to the store today and bought some of the isopure that I have heard others talk about on this site and also some additional protein shake powder to try another brand/flavor. Will let you know how it goes. I start my pre-op diet on Wednesday!

I started yesterday. It's o.k. I have to get 100 gm of protein and its not easy. Keep me posted.

I'm the 17th also. Started my liquids Sunday. Waiting on my next unjury delivery which is due tomorrow. Just can't wait to get this part over with. I have a band also, never really lost anything with the band, so I'm cautiously optimistic this time.
