My surgery date is September 30th in Ypsilanti, MI.

who else is in september? what are your thoughts? are you excited??!!! Nervous?

Just paid the rest of my balance! Everything is a goooooo.

Also just found out that my friend and I don't check into the Marriott in Tijuana until 3 pm and we get to San Diego a few hours before so we're going to make a mini vacation out of it and go see the zoo. Never been to San Diego so this will be fun!

Oh boy, that zoo is gigantic and expensive, and there is a lot to see if you have just a couple of hours. Pretty exhausting too. maybe you could rent four wheeled scooters ( electric convenience vehicles) at the entrance. You might check that check that out. GOOD LUCK WITH SURGERY!

My hubby ate a salad with me and it seemed like I needed 3 more salads. I need to drink more Water and I only drank 1/2 of one Protein Shake. I will ask the doc if I can have yogurt. It feels like a food monster is crawling out of my stomach. Lol!

Day 7 of my preop diet. I have lost 1 whole pound:( I have been sticking too it. Trying to push the water, Surgery is 1 week from tomorrow. I was really hoping to lose 10lbs on this preop diet. Very disappointed. But today is another day. When I did the medifast diet I lost 7lbs the 1st week. So I am not sure what is going on.

Surgery date 9/12, im super anxious and excited. ?...this liquid diet is killing me

The pre op liquid diet does get better. My surgery is scheduled for Sept 12. Tomorrow will be 1 week down of this diet. Day 4 was a bit hard because I was just so ready to chew my food. But the last few days have been really good. I space my protein out through out the day drink my last one around 530-6pm when cooking dinner for everyone. Then I just drink drink drink water plain or flavored till I'm about to pop. During the day I've been chewing a lot of gum as well. Hang in there guys it's all worth it in the end.

Two weeks from today. Getting excited and my nerves are beginning to settle down. I'm sure my nerves will be a wreck the day of Sept. 18th.

Sept. 12th!

My surgery date is Sept 16th. I have pre-op testing tomorrow. I feel very unprepared for this and am hoping to learn a lot at my meeting with the nurse tomorrow. All I've done so far is ordered samples of unjury.
