I just got my surgery date for March 5. I am excited and nervous at the same time but I'm trying to hold it all together.

Mine is the 28th and I start an all liquid diet for 2 weeks tomorrow. Seems like a long time and only liquid the whole time isn’t that common compared to others on here and videos I’ve watched of others before their surgeries. Wish me luck!! And as someone stated, I’m a Taurus having surgery in Aries! [emoji12]

5:30 AM, baby, that's when I report for surgery -- woohoo! I am a jumble of nerves, excitement, and impatience, because mostly, I just want this done so I can start the next phase of my life. [emoji3][emoji3][emoji3]

Good luck!!!! [emoji256] Let us know how you’r feeling when your better:)

I believe my doc keeps us on this next “stage 2” for 2 weeks then I go to the puréed.

Baby steps gets us there too!

Yeah, my doc is pretty strict too. My stage 1, is 2 weeks clear liquids only. Then on March 20th, I can move onto full liquid and puree for 2 weeks. THEN it's soft foods from Apr 3rd, THEN it is real food Apr. 17th. Now THIS is gonna really test my character lol.

Its 3:00 am and I am up and ready to roll! And a wee bit thirsty, which happens with CPAP. Imagine it will be worse later . Not as nervous as last night. Thanks for letting me vent :-)

Nice to see you’re up like me. Can’t sleep. Only 4 hours until I have to be at the hospital.

Not surprised to see you up, too! :-) Are you ready?

Dang, is (s)he still sleeping? How??

Also, I'm a little amazed that I lost 12# pre-op and I did not have to do protein shakes, just protein+veges+3 fruits day.

I wonder how you tag someone in this forum.

You put an "@" plus user name, like @Stevie the Sleevey
