  • I'm new around here. My surgery is set for March 2! Today is my first day on the pre op diet. I just hope I can make it through the next two weeks without wantinq to slap someone because of hanger.

  • I am waiting on approval but shooting for my birthday, March 5th. Prey for approval!

  • Hey everyone! I'm scheduled for March 3 and am both excited for my new life and nervous of the surgery. Seeing all of the success stories in here really helps with the nerves. I am also so grateful

I am thinking of you and praying for a safe surgery and quick recovery! Good luck!

Good luck ladies. I'm too excited to sleep. I go in at 7/730 AZ time. Still have some nervous doubts but I'm confident everything will be alright.

May God's hands be on all of us today & may the surgeons and staff be on too of our game. May our anesthesia and drugs be great! But our recovery and progress better.

Yesterday was rough! Nutritionally I'm doing well. Had my surgery 1 week ago today and I'm down 5lbs, so happy about that! But about this energy thing - what's up with that! I folded half a basket of laundry and then had to rest up to take a shower. My hubby told me I'm over-doing it but, compared to normal me, I'm really doing nothing! Please tell me my energy level will improve soon!

THANKS SO MUCH @@Amie2790 PRAYERS GOING UP FOR YOU AS WELL FOR ALL THE ONE GOING IN FOR SURGERY TODAY PRAYING GOD'S HAND WHILE BE UPON US ALL AS WELL AND EVERYTHING WILL GO GREAT

Amen! Good luck ladies, I am really nervous, too. But by this time tomorrow we will all be sitting on the "loser's bench". See you there!!

I am a couple days short of being two weeks post op. Threw up for the first time since leaving the hospital. It was totally my fault. Was in a hurry to make an appointment and tried to quickly take my BP med the "choke" down those nasty chewable vitamins I take in the morning. I have to learn to slow down. As a result lost my protein and water. Starting over at a slower pace, but I'm skipping my morning vitamins. Thank god this liquid phase is almost over.

Just checking in with you guys to see how it went ? I am barely tolerating a few bites of Jello. It tastes really sweet. Mostly ice chips and tea for me.

Doing okay with water, water with mio, sugar free Popsicles. Just had two oz broth and doing okay. Headache comes and goes, just keep sipping fluids. I know next week will be better.

Yeah my headache comes and goes too. I've been able to get some ice chips down, about 3oz of chicken broth and am now sipping on about an oz of tea. Not too bad, aside from the heart burn its giving me and I've been having a pain in my chest (left side) so they are calling the doc about that.

TRYING TO GET THESE FLUIDS DOWN, I HAVE NO APPETITE AT ALL FOR FLUIDS BUT I KNOW HAVE TO DRINK TO STAY HYDRATED SO I'M FOCUSING ON THESE FLUIDS I CAN DO THIS I SURE DON'T WANNA END UP IN THE HOSPITAL FOR DEHYDRATION )-;
