Hello all, I am scheduled to have surgery July 2, 2013 by Dr. Dyer at Centennial Hospital in Nashville, TN. I start my pre-operative liquid diet this Tuesday, I'm so excited to get the ball rolling. I'm trying to remain positive about the whole ordeal, because my mind is very powerful. I have Crohn's disease so this procedure may be a little more tricky for me; nonetheless I am all in!!!

Congratulations on your decision, and best of luck to you! Going into the pre-op diet, surgery and life changing post-op with your head being in the right space is key! Way to go!
