Is it too early to start an April thread? I didn't see one yet.

I'm scheduled for April 22. I still have to finish PCP clearance and psych then insurance approval but don't anticipate any problems. Once I started my appointments the excitement and anxiety kicked in. I started 6 month supervised diet in August....this used to seem so far away and like a vague idea but its so real now. My anxiety is double as my husband's date is march 18 and I worry a lot more about him than myself. How are all the other April folks doing?

My work better watch out 8 days in a row and on a liquid diet I dont thank its going to go to well

Hahahahaha Krystal! I've already had to ask for prayer for my husband and co-workers :-) lol

Today is my third day without COFFEE! Ugh' date=' good luck. It's killing me, but gets better. Figured I would quit before my pre op diet starts.[/quote']

I probably should've quit a while back- but I need my coffee :-)

My husband already doesnt like me so at the end of all this he can just scat I have bigger and better dreams without him

Day 3 of liquid diet, well i'm getting my butt handed to me, what pain all my muscles are killing me all I can do is 6 km and lots of house work. I only hope it gets better.

surgery date - Apr 5th/2013 9am

I havent been put on a liquid diet or anything as of yet i dont go to the dr until the 9th and my surgery is the 16th so on monday the 1st im gonna go on my own version of everyones diet no carbs and 2 shakes a day and im gonna attempt to eliminate coffee ahhhhh.....also wanted to ask everyone how much protein is in your shakes? I always have used EAS advantedge and its 17g but i see some of you post more is that a switch from lapband requirements?

I also just ordered truvia i have heard it's the best tasting sweetener besides the real deal lol? Any thoughts?

Truvia is good and it most live real sugar. The protein count is after surgery but my dr records the EAS shakes

Day 8 of liquid diet. I'm hanging in there and luckily I do not have to cook for my family. They are very supportive and thats been a huge help. My son did liquid diet with me for 4 days...very sweet guy! Surgery is April 9! please add me to the list! I had to have an IVC filter inserted on Wednesday to prevent problems from blood clots. I developed a clot in my brain during chemo for breast cancer in 2006 and don't want a pulmonary embolism. I am ready to go and I have really appreciated reading about everyone's journey.
