My surgery date is 12/17/08!! :wub: When I found out I was approved (only for $4,000.00 though) I thought I was dreaming. lol. So I decided, hey that's $4,000 less than normal price so I'll figure it out, and go for it. I said I'd rather be skinny & broke than rich & fat. HAHA!! Trying to make the best out of it

Soooo... what should I stock up on? I have a good supply of chicken & beef broth, Water & Protein so far. What else should I get?

Also, am I gonna be starving the first week on liquids only? Do you feel full, or do you wanna eat food?

I have my pre-op on Monday for all the info but it's driving me nuts thinking of how to prepare!!:whatchutalkingabout

I'm sure you all know how I'm feeling :cool2:

you have a good start already! No you will not be hungry at all. I was about 3 wks out before I was hungry. I think the first week all I had was shakes,egg drop soup, hot and sour soup blended, a couple of yogurts. Just check out the liquid, mushie stage threads for more ideas! Congrats....Wishing you well....
