I got my date... May 21! I'm very excited!!! Of course, I didn't lose any weight (didn't gain any either), so I'm on the liquids earlier than planned -- two liquid meals and one light meal. Surprisingly, I'm doing okay with this. I think the stubborn streak has kicked in and I know what I have to do in order to make this whole procedure go smoothly. But I have the date and I'm doing a happy dance...woohoooo :thumbup:

Liquid pre op is difficult, but I found I wasn't hungry. Of course, I WANTED TO EAT. It was good to prepare me for after surgery. I delt with some of those issues before and not during recovery.

CONGRATULATIONS!

Oh...I definitely know that feeling. I'm not hungry. I drink the Protein stuff and I'm fine. But I would love something solid...maybe a big piece of pizza or something But I agree, by starting this now and being very strict about it, it will only help after surgery :thumbup:

PIZZA! I cant wait to have a slice. I am waiting until I am down 50lbs. Right now I am stuck. scale not moving. I had my husband hide the scale because it was driving me crazy.

Everytime it gets tough just tune in to the web site. It got me through the first 2wks post op.

Congratulations on your date!!!!!

Congratulations on getting your date!

I'm on May 21st also, and I've decided I'm going to start the pre-surgery diet tomorrow so that I can get started losing weight now. (I'd start today, but we took the admin assistants out for lunch today.)

I'm having my surgery in Indy.

Congratulations on your date!

Thank you everyone! I'm so excited.

Congratulations. Let us all know how you are doing.
