October Surgery Dates

[aNuMe 59]

Why are you having to do a month of the liquid diet? I suppose if you can do a month' date=' I can surely do two weeks. Thanks for the encouragement. I'm new to this site and not sure if this will go through...but I hope you will stay in touch especially since we have the same surgery date...I am 3rd up...so they say I will go in around 8:30.[/quote']

I have no clue why I have to do s month I think it all depends on the amount of weight your surgeon wants you to lose although he didnt give me a amount to lose, I know sum one whos way bigger than me and they have to do 6 weeks. When I went to my class there was people who was doing a week or less, and wasnt that big so I figure it prob goes by either your size or the amount you need to lose.

Good morning, I'm everything will just fine. The only surprise I had at my pre-op was having to start the liquid diet the next day instead of today. I'm still waiting for a call from the hospital so I can go back and do my blood work.

Well I had my pre-op appointment today & also pre-registeration at the hospital. I had labs, ekg, answered a zillion questions ..asked a ton too! I start my liquid diet on the 1st & then surgery follows on the 15th. Very anxious, excited, overwhelmed... you name it & I've probably felt it! lol I love reading everyone's post here in the October thread because we are going through pretty much the same things.

I had mine on the 20th as well, but never had to have an EKG. Went the a 1.5 hr Q&A with the Pre-op Nurse who as totally awesome. Start my pre-op diet 10-1 as well...

It's like we are surgery twins! hahahah

** I went out this weekend and bought a few different Protein Drinks to try. I am drinking one for Breakfast today that I found at Walmart. It's called "Lean Body, on the go", vanilla Ice Cream flavor, and it's YUMMY. 25g Protein too.

So, I had my appointment today for all the fun bloodwork and such. I must say, I was a bit nervous. I had blood drawn, and EKG, some chest x-rays and an ultrasound for my liver, kidney and gallbladder. Why was I so nervous??? I am so excited to I finally be the person outside that I already know I am inside!! I think I was nervousness because now I have my per op on the 1st and surgery on the 15th. Time is getting closer!! Good luck everyone!

Hey you all!!! So I had my pre op testing today and class. I'm a little bummed out, because my xray showed a mass so now I have to get a CT scan. I pray its not serious.
