2 weeks away for me too. Don't worry everything will be fine. i am so excited. Stay positive.

My surgery is only 5 days away... at this time... it couldn't get here fast enough... Although I am surviving my pre-op diet, it am so OVER the same salad. I do wish you all the best!!!

I'm 6 days away! I'm getting really nervous as well. When people ask me "are you excited about your surgery"... I'm having trouble spittin out a "yes". Trying to stay positive and I'm about to download a book I was told would help me stay positive. I just never thought the time would come an now it's here! I cant wait to lose weight! Good luck to everyone! :)

So I went today and got my upper GI done ( that was awful)!! And my blood work done. So I was told last visit that I would not need to do a pre-op diet because of my BMI being on the low side, so I have been happy about that......until today!! I was told today that I have to start the pre-op diet, THAT SUCKS!! I mean slap in the face unprepared!! So all day I've wrapping my brain around it, that's how I work. If I am aware of something I just get ready and go with it, but when it just jumps out at me it sucks!! So I went and bought some lean cuisines, shakes and Popsicles and tomorrow it starts!! Good luck to me and everyone else!!!

Wow! I wonder why they decided to put you on one? Preop diet sucks but I hope everyone is doing well with theirs :) I've found that stopping at gas stations for different protein shakes is helping me. Almost like stopping at a fast food place to eat? Kind of? I had my official preop today. 80 hours til surgery! Ahh...I just panicked saying that lol!
