    hey dude

    welcome welcome welcome :)

    as our group gets larger - "we people" get smaller!! :unsure:

    you've lost 40 lbs and you haven't started pre-op :)

    thats terrific

    shows how committed you are!! :)

    wonderful to start the new year getting healthy :)

    tips???

    take one day at a time

    "might" be a little rough at first/or later a bit <_<

    might stall

    things usually get better sooner than later :)

    follow all the rules set by doc and NUT(nutritionist)

    drink as much as you can

    Water is very important

    don't allow yourself to get dehydrated

    as this early stage - water is more important than Protein

    come "visit" this board frequently

    you'll get plenty of support here :)

    hear all our wisdom, ;)

    listen to our good advice

    experiences

    but - at the end of the day

    ALWAYS/ONLY follow the words of your doc/NUT (and me too of course :lol: )

    your determination/optimism goes a long way ;)

    thats always good

    good luck

    speedy recovery :)

    kathy

    Make sure you tell your doctor about your cold so they can tell you what meds you can take. I was sick for three weeks before my surgery and that day I still had coughing and some chest congestion but everything went well. I was so scared that I would start coughing during the operation but that won't happen when being completely under anesthesia.

    Hope you feel better soon and congratulations on your weight loss so far. Good job!!!
