I wish you well!

I am scheduled for the 2nd. I can't believe it is really happening! I am excited and terrified at the same time. I have never had surgery before..

Looks like Nov for me too. Waiting the "ok" from my insurance. Because of all my co-morbidities, general consensus is that I'll be approved.

I'm going in tomorrow!!! Happy Halloween!

Nov 9th here.

Start pre op on Nov 2nd.

Allowed 1 meal a day and 2 shakes

Thanks for all the helpful advice on what to pack. Keeping it simple is the way to go! :-)

Good luck too all going for surgery this week, praying all goes well. Xx

My surgery was moved up to the 21st. Must loose the weight by the 15th of nov that's my pre op. I don't have a "liquid diet" but I've been doing a modified version of a VLCD to loose the last 10+ pounds. Just looked it up on line and I've lost 7.6 lbs in 4 days. While working in Er. So it's possible. Not nice but possible. Good luck everyone. I have to loose 3.3 more then keep it off till the 15 and on the 21st.
