surgery tuesday

Hello everyone -I am new to this site- have been around a few others though- they are all so helpful! I will be having my surgery on

tuesday - at Cleveland Clinic. Today i am doing the colon cleanse- not very fun...so I am holed up in my bedroom trying to keep busy and running to the bathroom every few minutes or so...I look forward to meeting everyone here- and hopefully joining many of you on the losing side soon! Actually with the pre-op liquid diet I have lost around 10lb already...Anne

I am also going in tomorrow (Tuesday). I did the two weeks liquid but my doctor doesn't have me doing a colon cleanse, sounds like I'm lucky.

Good luck tomorrow. I hope you're not to scared. I've had about four surgeries so am not nervous yet but will be in the morning.

I hope I'm the same way, I've had 2 knee surgury's and my gallbladder taken 0ut. I feel as ;though I'm an old pro at this, but I still be nervous too.:)

Hi Anne,

I had my lapband placed by Dr. Schauer at the Cleveland Clinic in October. Which Dr. did you choose? How is your recovery going?
