I'm June 9th...have my preop testing Tuesday. I guess it's really gonna happen! I don't have a preop diet so I've been spending time going through my closet, packing up the nice winter stuff in bins and bagging up the old beat up big winter clothes. I won't throw out the bags or donate the nice stuff until after surgery, just in case something happens but I'm looking forward to never wearing size 16s again.

Hi all can't believe its so close now only 3 day liquid diet. My surgery is at 12:30 June 2nd with the same hospital and doctor as stacyann. Such a small world. So nervous that I am not hungry got plenty if Protein Drinks I am afraid that I won't like them after surgery. GNC has a vanilla milkshake that tastes just like cake batter. Goodluck everyone

I went today to sign my consent forms for my surgery this coming Wednesday the 4th and had my last visit with my nut before surgery. I told her that I was doing great on my two week preop diet but on Memorial day it was a train wreck. My 8 year old son went with me today and was telling my nutritionist everything that I ate that day. Lol I was thinking "Wait til I get him outside". Lol On the other hand I lost 12 lbs since Monday. I feel a little better now :) I just noticed my ticker saying 4 more days. it's really sinking in now.

That is funny about your son.. Good luck on Wednesday...

Thanks Zelda. you too. you're right behind me. :)

I know what you mean. I have been spending alot of time on BP since I got approved... even more since I got the date. Maybe after, most of my questions will be answered, but I would like to see how people are doing, to be able to share the successes with someone who's going through the same thing.

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!
