This will be my first major surgery. I'm a little nervous about the whole thing and am hoping to make friends who will help support me and me supporting them. All of this is completely new to me. I don't know what else to say, but I'm excited to meet people in the same boat!

How's the pre diet going? I was wondering about how tough that would be. I work at an Italian restaurant, so I think it'll be an interesting ride!

By the way... Thank you very much. God luck and keep me updated!

Hi Diana, Are you having surgery on the 19th? I thought that is what I saw. I am also. Where are you having yours? Do you have to do a liquid diet a few weeks in advance?? Just curious.

I am having it on the 19th. I'm in Dallas. I will be having the surgery in forest medical Center. My liquid diet starts in the 12th. I go on the 28th to do my ekg and blood work and everything else. Where are you having yours?

Happy for you. I am having mine in Tijuana. I start my liquids on the 3rd. I will have all my pre-testing done the morning of surgery. Still hoping to find a buddy before I go that is going to Tijuana too. If not, I am sure I will meet people in the hospital walking the halls with me. Keep me posted on your progress. Very exciting journey.
