My first time in the support group. My surgery is also June 29th. I am nervous but ready for my lifestyle change. This is my fifth day on the pre op diet. I am doing well. I am motivated. It also helps to read everyone's experiences. I will just say stay strong. We will be healthy, thin and happy.

Welcome! Looks like we have a few who are scheduled for June 29th! I am not doing so well today. I haven't caved, but my stomach is cramping so bad it hurts to stand up. I ate a protein bar that goes along with my diet, but it had nuts in it. About half an hour after I ate it, I have these horrible stomach cramps to the point where I was breaking out in a sweat. I thought I was going to vomit. Needless to say that I will not be eating those protein bars again and if that experience was anything like what dumping feels like, I for sure will steer clear from foods I shouldn't be eating that cause dumping. M having a lull in pain right now which is why I am able to type. Ugh!!! Wth!!

Hi everyone. I am scheduled for June 29 too! I have a 5.30 am start and I can't wait. I am trying to get everything organized since I live alone and do not want to worry about shopping for food after. A friend is coming to stay with me for a few days. After that I'm on my own!

I go for my pre op tests on Monday June 22 and some more instructions from the nurses but apart from that I've not being asked to do any special pre surgery diet. I am wondering why I didn't get asked to do this?

Yeah, I'm starting to freak out a little bit. Haha, it's starting to get so real. I had the calls from the hospital today one to confirm my check in and surgery times, the other to ask questions fir the anesthesiologist. I've been packing today too since I live in boise id, but having my surgery up in wa. I have to drive up on sunday, and have an 850 check in time, with a 1050 surgery time.

We will be back to back surgeries :) I have to be at the hospital at 7:30 with my surgery time at 9:30 am. How has the diet been going for you? I love 15 pounds...cheated one day. It's so mentally challenging but I know this is jay the beginning!!

I'm scheduled for Monday as well. The nerves are starting to creep up but I'm also excited. I hope you all do well and have a speedy recovery!

I've cheated a couple of times, but other than that it has been good. And since I started the diet I've lost about 10 pounds. I think the diet will be easier once you feel full after only a couple of bites

My surgery is scheduled for Monday as well. My check in time is 7:45 and surgery at 8:30. I did well on the diet, lost 18 pounds with 2 days to go. These last couple of days, I have been getting a little hungry but I've pushed pass the hunger pains. I am excited and nervous about surgery. I wish everyone well on your surgery and let's celebrate our new lifestyle.

Omg you're big day is tomorrow ! Mine is on Tuesday. June 30th and freaking so nervous I'm numb ! Good luck !
