Im all set and will have surgery on December 1. I am currently on the 2 week pre op diet and in 5 days

am down 8 pounds. Thanksgiving will be TOUGH. I told my doctor that I AM going to cheat on

Thanksgiving as this will be my last one before surgery. I won't OVER DO it but I am going to have

stuffing. Very nervous but also looking forward to getting past the first week.

I'm hoping for December surgery date. I submit to insurance this Friday! Do you have a date yet? I'm also be where, just joined today.

hi did you get a december surgery date yet?

@@leemcel I don't have a date yet but I was approved by Cigna this week :) I have to wait until Dec 1st to hear back from my Dr about h pylori bacteria in my stomach. If I still have it I will have to do another round of antibiotics and won't get my surgery this year. The important thing is to get rid of that so I don't have any complications. If it comes back clear, I'll be able to get my December date. Just have to wait and see, and pray for good news! :D

My surgery is set for 12/15! I am excited, but also very nervous about having the surgery. Jumped thru all the hoops tho' & it is finally going to happen. I start my pre-op diet on December 1st & have been researching different protein drinks & shakes. I keep telling myself I can do anything for a month (liquids), & I think back on all the diets & crazy things (like hypnosis & staples in my ear) to lose weight & realize that this will be the first time that I will make a New Years resolution & actually be able to keep it! I am so ready to change my life!

Dmaddox1 I also start my liquids December 1 which will be my first day back from vacation so I will look forward to a 7 day detox LOL. My surgery date is December 8th. I am excited knowing this will be my last vacation being overweight shying from photos and I will make my weight goals next year ????

My surgery date is Dec 4th. I am nervous and excited. I started my liquid diet on Thurs. So today is only my 3rd day. Its Sat morning and I woke up and thought I am going to take kids to breakfast and then remembered never mind. Its hard to wrap my head around thinking I won't have real food again until Jan. sometime. I have 3 kids and a single mom I just don't want any complications. I just have to do this for my health. I am going to be positive. Good luck to all who have surgeries coming up in Dec. Best Christmas gift to ourselves!????????????

I'm having surgery December 4 and I'm on day 3 of 14 liquid diet. I've lost 6 pounds so far. I miss eating, but look forward to a healthier life. Good luck to everyone.

What are you drinking on your liquid diet? @@vmcelroy70611 I have lost 2. Are you having soups? shakes? Nancy

I am having my Protein shakes, Water, broth, and Jello. Tonight I started eating popsicles.

Yea I think I am having to many soups. My doctor said I could eat a little Thanksgiving dinner but I am afraid I would eat too much if I start. Is anyone planning on eating Thanksgiving Dinner?
