Who else is joining the band wagon on Feb. 12?

I'm a feb 12ther too! I'm feeling good, no pain anymore, still kinda feel out of it, but otherwise, great! I started mushy food today, i was getting so tired of drinking CIB! -
I feel well! That dry mouth thing hasnt gone away yet for me. My mouth is always dry. I was also on that diet, it sucked and it kinda pissed me off that they didnt even weight us before surgery!
I also had the shoulder pain, which has since gone away and my cuts are doing fantastic!
Its so funny to get yourself worked up over nothing, you know? Thats so me!
Let me know how everything goes! I'm glad it went well

Hey yea I just got home about 2 hrs ago. I went in at 8:30 and my surgery was supposed to be at 10:30 and they didnt get me in till almost 1:30!! I was starving and thirsty lol. I was so worried that I messed up my pre-op diet b/c I was on the low carb/fat high protein and i didn't realize how many carbs were in fruits!! So all last night I was stressing about it thinking that my liver didn't shrink good enough. Well after my surgery, my hubby talked to my surgeon and he said that i did wonderful on my pre-op and that I actually saved him 20 mins because he didnt' even have to move my liver around and that I was the best patient he had that day!! So that made me feel great and basically told me thats what took so long with his other patients. Now I'm in a little pain with the gas in my left shoulder and of course the incisions. Other than I'm good. Not really hungry just thristy my mouth is dry. How do you feel after day 4 for you?

Pre-surg jitters!?!
presleysyndrome replied to presleysyndrome's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I mean, i know deep down that i'm going to be fine. I've had oral surg, under the same anistesia (sp?). Its just such a HUGE deal. I'm excited, but scared, happy but nervious. I think everyone goes through these emotions :party: Thank you! -
Okay, so my surg. is thursday and i'm having some pre-surg jitters! It doesnt help that i check out of the hospital on friday the 13th!! If my surg. was that day, i'd have to reschedule! Help! I'm getting so freaked out!

February '09 bandsters?
presleysyndrome replied to JayinMA's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I dont think i've posted here yet, but my date is the 12th! I start my pre-op diet on thursday (the 29th!) as each day come closer to surg. i get more and more nervous! Luckly me and a girl from the pre-op class have been talking on here and she has surg the day i start my pre-op diet! She's going to hook me up with the blow-by-blow details! -
What are some of your favorite staple foods? Quick meals? I start my pre-op diet on the 29th and plan on going through our freezer/fridge/pantry and giving all the stuff I won’t be able to eat to my skinny friend's. I'd like to stock up on quick meals and what I should just keep around in my pantry for when I’m actually able to eat. I bought the book "eating well after weight loss surgery" and she had some good staple foods to have around, but I’m curious to see what you all have around. Also, if you go out to dinner, where do you go? what do you get? I'm just trying to get some ideas! I appriciate it! :tongue:
