Lol you got a point on that one lol may have to look in to that one .

Hi Ladies! My surgery is scheduled for October 15. Glad to have found you so we can support each other. Why are you shaving, waxing, etc? Because you don't want the hospital to do it? Just curious. ^_^

The hospital won't care if it's trimmed, shaved, or a forest! Guess its personal preference.

This is true, although I'm a nurse and I'd much rather put a foley into a "clean and trimmed" area than a forest lol. I truly mean this too lol

From one nurse to another I TOTALLY agree ;o

I'm a secretary at a hosp and ill be recovering on the floor I work for. The manager is gonna get me a private room. She said I wouldn't have a foley?? I thought i would. Which is why i wanted to shave the kitty lol

I don't have my date yet but when I spoke with the nurse today they will be submitting to insurance on Wednesday. So she said probably mid October. I'm keeping my fingers crossed and will post a date when I get it.

Need help! I have to lose at least 17lbs. In two weeks or I won't be an October surgery any ideas how to take it off fast.

I'm on day 4 of the pre-op diet and I've lost 11 pounds already. My pre-op diet is limited to 20 grams of protein though. I don't think It's healthy, but It's what my program requires and It's probably okay short-term to get the weight that you need to get off
