Welcome to the March group 49Nash and Recidivist! How’s everything been going for you?

Mines coming up on March 8th

Thanks, Pug Mom! So far so good! I just learned today that my insurance has approved the surgery, so that was great news. I've completed all of the pre-op classes and lab tests, although they want me to come into the hospital on February 20 for yet another round of bloodwork.

As I said, my original surgery date was February 25, so today was the first day of my liquid diet. I had actually started it and was feeling pretty cranky--dragging without caffeine, and with a terrible headache. I found out at 1:00 p.m. today that my surgery had been postponed, and I ran out of my office to eat a normal lunch and drink a Diet Coke!

Hi, Shuffle. I'm having gastric bypass on March 4. I'm in Washington DC--where are you located?

Haha I know the feeling. I stopped Diet Coke about a month ago, but this weekend, I had to have one. I figured that I have 2 weeks left before I start the liquid diet, so I need to get it out of my system. Starbucks is the next to go. 🤣

Thank you for the welcome. I’m excited to have a date but my anxiety level went through the roof after getting an actual date. Anyone else feel this way?

Some days I’m super excited and other days I start thinking “what if this happens...” so I start re-reading through all of the forum topics and calm down a bit . I’m also glad to see more people with March dates. Hopefully we will have lots to share with one another 😊

what at are you doing to stay calm?

Hi March Buddies! Just got a call from the hospital and my surgery is scheduled for 4:30 PM!?!? Hopefully as it gets closer, they move it up. Getting ready to start the Protein Shakes on Friday. Hope everyone is doing well 😊

That does seem rather late in the day. Mine is on March 4 at 7:00 a.m., and I need to be at the hospital at 5:30! 😞

I started the Protein Shakes today. So far, so good!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!

      Today was rough...
      I've been experiencing a headache all day today that just won't go away. I'm thinking it's now progressing into a migraine. Does anyone else get headaches from taking vitamin B12? I did some research and learned that usually a lack of B12 causes headaches. But I've noticed when I take it, I have reoccurring headaches. 😫
