Isla and lydia we r surgery buddies!!! My time is set for 11am. I've been on a "4 Protein shakes a day and only raw veggies" pre-op diet since 8/29 and Im so sick of it. Haven't been feeling too good at all' date=' headaches, bloated and gas. Not to mention very irritable!!! Im excited, but very nervous too. I am married and have 2 boys, 7 & 9. I am turning 40 on 9/25. How bout u?[/quote']

Yay!!!! Another surgery buddy!!!! My surgeron didn't require and liquid diet or anything! I don't have my time until tomorrow...Tuesday!

I went shopping for a little bit of puréed things or things to puréed! I'll be in a puréed diet for a month after surgery. But it's finally setting that my body is about to get rocked! lol

And I'm 29, happily married to the greatest guy! We don't have any kids, just 2 furbabies! Lol Kids are one of the many reason I/we came to this decision to have surgery!

Oooh I can't wait!!!!

To everyone that had surgery today, I wish you the best of luck, i push this date off, as some of you know.. the reason.. So i do wish ALL of you a well wishes and know a special angel was with you today.. (my aunt ginny) I am glad I took the advice of everyone on here and push the date to 9/13, as my heart has been heavy, with the tributre to my uncle on CBS PATS vs. TITIANS gams yesteday and then my aunt 1yr today my hearts is just heavry with sorrow, I am hoping My surgery BUDDIES come online soon.... haven't heard much from anyone going on 9/13?

September 19th And I am getting very nervous. Start liquid diet next Wednesday. Those of you around the same date what have you done to prepare?

m

Haven't been on here in a while I just wanted to wish those having surgery this week a speedy recovery. I'm still a bunch of nerves mine is in 2 weeks sep 25th. I start my liver shrinking diet on Wednesday, I'm pretty much ready. This 10 month wait went by super fast. Oh and to the people keeping track of the weight my start weight is 328. To my surgery buddies how are you guys doing? I hope everyone else is doing well

ok' date=' everytime I go to the store to try to get Vitamins I get LOST and overwhemled..what is everyone else buying? I dont have any of the post op clear liquid foods in my house for after surgery yet, the only thing I can think of right now is surgery is on Thursday, I need to color my hair , get a pedicure, manicure and dye my hair and oh yeah get my eyebrow done.. why? b/c whay happens if if I die during surgery, I dont want to look like crap when my family has to see me.. WTF is wrong with me... OMG!! am i stressed or what..[/quote']

LOL Started making a list today, on top of the list: Pedicure, Eyebrows, Hair colored and cut!

I haven't been nervous yet until today. My surgeons assisstant called at 3:45 and told me that she never received the cleance from my PCP and she needs it today. I went into panic mode. I called my PCP to see whats wrong. She won't clear me until she gets the cardiologist to clear me. Well I was panicing. Everybody closes at 5 and they need this today. So after a dozen phone calls back and forth and me damn near crying, screaming and throwing a hissy fit. I get a call at 4:50 saying they got the clearence and I'm good to go! I don't understand why they needed it TODAY. Yeah I have an appoinment w/ my surgeon at 7:30 am tomorrow but my surgery isn't until friday. But anyway......It's good now!
