November Surgery Dates Anyone? Let's Connect!

My surgery is November 10th. I am on Day 7 of my 2 week liquid diet and I am still VERY hungry. How is everyone else doing on their liquid diets?

I'm LOL because I know you and I started the liquid diet at the same time, and today I want to chew my arm off. I've had so much to drink I feel like I'm going to drown, but I really want to "eat" something. With my docs orders I'm allowed to have something lite as an evening meal like a salad, but i did that last night, and it just didn't cut it.

I'm chewing gum.....

Hello, all. This is my first time on this website.

I'm scheduled for RNY this Thursday, Nov. 6th. I am so anxious to get it done. I'm on day 3 of a 5 day clear liquid pre-op diet. I also have a slight head cold/sinus infection. Grr. I got an antibiotic yesterday, and hope all stays well and out of my chest, so that they don't have to reschedule surgery.

Question: My tummy is rumbling with gas. I'm assuming from all liquids? Has anyone else had this? What did you consume during Clear Liquids?

Thanks for any and all support!

Hi. I sure hope you're better by Thursday. The antibiotics should help. If it were under different circumstances I'd tell you to have a couple shots of good bourbon with some honey in it and call me in the morning...... All kidding aside, I hope you feel better, and all goes smoothly for you on Thursday. Good Luck.

Dabliss thank you for the good, warm thoughts!! I got the call earlier that I check in at 10:15am tomorrow morning. I'm looking forward to a successful surgery, and for Jenn, shellbell79, and Lashante23 (Who should've been done today) to all be successful. I'll be in touch as soon as possible because I need to be there for the rest of my November buddies!!

Hi everyone! My surgery date is November 24th. I'm starting to have a mix of emotions I'm excited but a little nervous at the same time.

Mine is the day after. It's been such a long journey for me that it doesn't seem like it's really only 22 days away! Woo-hoo!

We've got this!

@@Time4ChangeNY - welcome! My surgery is the same day as yours. I am having an RNY - what are you having done? No liquid diet for me preop except for the day before. I don't know why some docs require that and others don't. I figure I will be way too stressed out the day before anyway to eat!

[Time4ChangeNY 20]

ready2B... I am also having RNY 11/10. I am also having a hiatal hernia repair and my gall bladder removed. I am very ready to have this surgery and to make some major changes in my life. I would love to keep in touch and encourage and support each other. Feel free to send me a personal message.

Hi. and Welcome to our little group. Your surgery is the day after mine. I'm going to add you as a friend. How's the liquid diet going for you? I'm hanging in there with it, but seem to always get a headache in the afternoon.

Keep in touch.

Deb, are you weening off caffeine? That'll give you some headaches..

That's amazing lashante!! You go lady! I heard walking is the best for nearly every aspect of pain post surgery.

Keep us posted!
