Hello I was wondering If anyone has October Surgery dates and how are you feeling about it being right around the corner and how are u spendng your time now that the hard part is over ur approved and have your date

***Awesome October***

One week from today we start our move to the losers bench! Just a shout out to everybody and those of us on Pre-Op Diets, it's almost time!

I am so nervous my operation is on the.3rd. I see my surgeon on the 2nd xrays on Friday nutrition class on wed. Everything is coming together. But so nervous.

Im oct 3rd as well..... Im excited for the new me, but scared of pain....

From what I've gathered the most pain will be while your on a pain pump. Then a couple days of discomfort and gas. Which doesn't sound all that bad. But hey, we will get through it, as soon!

I had same pain when I had my tubal ligation it is the worst part the pain in shoulders. I am dreading it because I do remember. But I didn't know about gas x or walking or pain meds then to help

Yes! My date is the 22nd! I've been reading blogs and forums. I also been going over and over and over my education/diet manual. Which I'm about to do now. Trying to get my postop diet menu down, ideas for the different stages. Starting to stock pantry and fridge with different items. Making sure I get some form of exercise in with my busy work/school schedule, so it wouldn't be a shock to my body afterwards. Trying not to get nervous.

Comgrats in surgery date!! I have come to the conclusion that I am going to get me an elliptical from Walmart to exercise with. Soon it will be snowing and cold and I am not going out in that stuff!!

I just bought a Jillian michaels full body machine for 149.00 at Walmart.com. The reviews are great on it , I should get it soon.

I will have to look. The elliptical was 194

OKAY!!! Seriously i want some freaking FOOD..... At what point does this liquid diet get easier. I am tired of this milky protein STUFF.....I cant even get in the 1200 calories that my doctor requires.

I hope it gets easier Clair. What protein drinks are you using? I use body fortress vanilla cream or chocolate. If its premaid the one I like beat is EAS strawberry. What you can do is get some SF jello mix I use strawberry and add a little to the vanilla and use skim milk it really is a lot better

So I just talked to insurance coordinator and we are trying if everything goes ok for surgery between October 15-31st somewhere in those dates

I'm using Oh Yeah! protein Mix (Vanilla cream and Chocolate milkshake) that's the only brand i was able to stomach.

Im oct 3rd as well..... Im excited for the new me' date=' but scared of pain....[/quote']

Me too! Scared, nervous and excited. I feel so overwhelmed right now with it all.

Don't have a date yet.....submitting to insurance this week! Wooohoooo should know a date by the end of this month! I am looking forward to seeing my vagina again!!!! Lmao!! I'm 5'3 current weight 247.....goal weight 125!!!

Lol I love that you're so honest to admit that!! That is on my top list of things that I want!! Lol

I have 10 days until I'm post op. I am not letting myself feel anything but calm right now. I'm sure as I get closer to next Friday, my nerves will win over my mind!!
