Any January 2014 Surgeries?

  • Popular Post

Well I finally have a surgery date set to Jan 8th. I am so excited that it's finally approaching. I have been on this journey since August! I can not explain how thrilled and excited I am. I have so many thoughts that goes through my mind like what should I pack? Etc. Anyone else have a date for January?

    I have three week pre-op liquid diet. Four protein shakes plus six cups of calorie free liquids. Can also have up to two cups of celery, cucumber or spinach if I feel the need to chew something. Nothing else. I'm kind if nervous about it but I'm sure I will do okay.

    Wow three weeks? Idk if I could do that one. Lol I guess if I had to I would. Good luck! It's all worth it in the end. That's my little pep talk I am going to be telling myself during my two weeks :) I can't wait to be on the losers bench!

    Surgery date for me is January 16th, I start my pre-op full liquid diet on January 2nd. I don't think it'll be that bad...I can have cream based soups, protein shakes and puddings.
