Anybody out there? I haven't scheduled yet, but it will certainly be in November. I'm still doing a little research, a bit nervous about traveling to Mexico by myself.

Can't wait to hear from others. Thanks and I will keep you posted.

Well, I'm about to head to bed then off to the hospital. Surgery scheduled for noon. Wish me luck!

Successful surgery. Gas pain isn’t as bad as I thought it was going to be. I think the toughest part is standing up to walk and feeling that stretch in your abdomen. But all in all doing very well. Up to about 3 oz of Water an hour consistently, just need that 4th one and I go home.

Happy its going good for you.

I just reached the point in my preop diet that i have to drink the special drink they provided and cut one of my snacks. I am struggling. Those of you on pure liquid preop are my new heros.

4 more days.

i bought the fruity pebble protein powder and one scoop in the morning that made me feel like i had a naughty bowl of fruity pebbles in the morning without the sugar or high calories… satisfied me greatly.
