Counting down

[Sheila 0]

Well, the great countdown has begun! Today I started my pre-op liquid diet. Surgery is scheduled for next Monday. I can't believe it has got here this quickly. I got my letter of approval the day before Thanksgiving and the time since then has just flown. I went Friday for my pre-op tests and I have lost 7 pounds since November...was I shocked! So far today has been ok on liquids, but by the time Sunday gets here.......who knows?

Once again I want to thank everyone on this board. You have been an inspiration and a fountain of knowledge for me. Even though I haven't posted a lot, I am a lurker and am on here everyday...sometimes several times a day.

Hi Sheila,

Here's to a quick recovery!

I will be where you are next month and I can't wait.

Please post more often and share your experience. As you know, it is so helpful to hear from others. It is also nice to know that you have people on your side who are here to support you.

Take Care,

Ditto, take it easy, be relaxed,

We're thinking of you.

Your about to start a new journey, as you finish an accomplishment. Stick to your pre-op diet it may be to reduce your liver for easier access to your stomach..

Again, Keep us posted:D
