October 4th for me! Good luck everybody!

Any one else just wants to be able to walk without feeling like your about to start a fire with your thighs rubbing together. Lol I know I do, I just want these suckers to stop touching each other.

My pre op ed class is today sept 24 and I cant sleep my appt is n less than 8hrs & I gotta be up in 2&1/2hrs im gonna be sleepy.

And me for October 1 por favor

Hey meggiepoo, were surgery buddies. Next week this time I will be in surgery... :)

Are you getting nervous like me or you excited

My pre op ed class is today sept 24 and I cant sleep my appt is n less than 8hrs & I gotta be up in 2&1/2hrs im gonna be sleepy.

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.

Are you getting nervous like me or you excited

I am nervous because i know i will be in a lot of pain right after the surgery, BUT i am MORE EXCITED about the NEW ME!!!

Me too i'm really exited that I get top have a fresh start and begin a new life

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.
