I wish I was in Plano. Since I’m cash pay I have to go to Lancaster since it’s the cheapest out of pocket hospital. So we will be in car at 3:45. Eeek! Where are you coming in from?



We’ve got this, just got to get past these nerves!






Near downtown! We will leave at about 4a to ensure we get there with a few minutes to spare. I'm so tickled to have connected with someone that has the same date and time! What's on your menu today? I think I'm going to start with a nectar Apple Ecstasy....23 grams Protein. Clear liquid diet day!!! YAY!!!!!


Who is your surgeon? I’m having a strawberry shake right now. I’m fairly basic in choices lol. I will probably have a gladiator from Smoothie King for my dinner since it has 45g of protein.

Glad we connected! I’m Crystal

I'm enjoying a packet of Nectar Apple Ecstasy right now and it's pretty tasty! Gladiator sounds interesting...might need to look that up!

I'm also glad we connected! I'm Karen - it's my pleasure.

oops my surgeon is Dr. Frenzel! Who is your surgeon?

There is a few on 9/26. This is my date as well. I have to check in at 7am. I am the second case. But I live an hour and a half away from the hospital. I will have to leave home about 5am. Nerves are kicking in. I am fixing to go take a shower and use the surgical scrub and then have to do it again in the morning. Good luck to everyone tomorrow!!

Good luck to you too. My nerves are in overdrive. I'm the 1st case at 7 so have to get there by 5am. I live about 45 min. away. Smh. Not my first weight loss surgery but sure feels like it.

Not my first either. Wish I could sleep tonight: nerves are in overdrive! Keep thinking what if my liver isn’t small enough or 1000 other things.

H2Neal where is your surgery? And good luck!

Planochick I'm thinking the same thing. Like what is an appropriate liver size? Probably not something the doc even cares about but enough to still have me up stressing.

Okay....positive affirmation time! We SOOOOO got this and we are all going to be healthier and fitter! Let's go 9/26ers!!![emoji4]

My surgery will be in Murfreesboro Tn and I will be having the gastric sleeve. My nerves are all over the place. Wish sleep would come!
I also keep thinking about my liver size as well!! Hope it is small enough. ?
We’ve got this! Dang that call telling me my surgery will be canceled if my liver is too large. They shouldn’t worry us!

Praying for you, and me, for safe successful procedures. We’ve got this.
@H2Nealn Kbridge, Planochick, you have done all you can do, you have prepared to the best of your abilities, lean back, lay quietly, let God and your surgeon handle it from now on. You gals are my T-birds, Texas and Tennessee. And you will do fine, I will be proud of you, and more importantly YOU will be proud of YOU. our approval is cool but this is a? present each of you are giving yourself, A FUTURE. Love, hugs and a kiss on your cheek! Frustr8
