Surgery on Friday, 21st...Anyone else?

Hello all, I am scheduled to have surgery on Friday morning at 8:30. I am doing all my household chores today and tomorrow linen changes, laundry, sweeping, mopping etc...I wasn't given a diet, but I have opted to do my own with protein shakes and lots of water. Ijust want everything to go smoothly. I know this is crazy but I feel like I should write a letter to my husband and son, just in case something goes awfully wrong. Did anyone else have the same weird feeling? I should be home on Saturday and will try to post on how I feel and pregress thereafter. Good luck to all going before me.

Darr,

I was banded on 9/24 and I'm hungry too. I'm adding Protein to liquid 3 times a day, but I still may not be getting enough protein. I tried to add it to tomato soup yesterday, but it just clumped. Are you having any luck adding it to heated liquids?

I haven't tried adding it to warm meals. I drink protein shakes: Slim Fast Low Carb, unjury. I was told I could eat soup, so I bought Cambells soup in hand creamy chicken. THis seems to help but I still have grumbling in the tummy, just not as often. I think its getting a little better. How do you feel?

me too!! Waiting on my sister to pick me up!! I'm going to Park Plaza at 8:30! Glad to go get his part over with!!! : ) Good Luck All!
