Will1970 18 Posted January 18, 2012 February 9th here, i am anxiously counting the days so exited for the day to come. I was happy to not have to worry about any pre op diet, unfortunatly i ended up gaining about 20lbs trying to get all the buffets out of my system. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SaucyBandster 23 Posted January 18, 2012 I am nervous and excited as well. I definitely am not having 2nd thoughts. I started this process two yrs ago and wimped out and it's not happening again. After seeing several friends do amazing and now at goal as well as all the inspirational stories on here, I am definitive on it. February 3rd is right around the corner - eeek! I just picked up my 2 week supply of Opti-fast which I am totally dreading and start this Friday. I have also bought the Pre and Post Ops foods, Vitamins, supplements, Protein powders and other stuff to be prepared. Next, I am buying Papaya Enzyme chewables to keep here for future stuck episodes. Some people say it works, others it doesn't. I will try tho. I have also been on a manhunt for liquid Tylenol and can't find it ANYWHERE. I am even trying to find it online and get it shipped but to no avail. Hmmpphh, if anyone knows where to find it let me know. We are RIGHT AROUND THE CORNER FEB BANDSTERS!!

EEEK is right! hehee reminds me of the excited nerves/fear of a baby on the way, except this time we're delivering our own rebirth so to speak yes there is fear of the unknown but no second thoughts and as soon as those negative doubts poke my brain I shake it off! Im working on my list of things to prepare for the event, im getting those papaya chewables too.. and I have to go in next week to get instructions on my pre-op diet! Wish you all the best, here we go! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Fit in my 60's 25 Posted January 20, 2012 I just completed my pre-op testing today. They told me once my dr turns it in they can schedule the day for surgery. I'm predicting middle of February. I haven't told too many people yet, just my husband, sister, 2 daughters, and one friend. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

cls70 12 Posted January 21, 2012 I am also Feb 3rd. I started the 2 week liquid diet today. I was ready to start this next phase. They have rescheduled my surgery date 2 times so I am not really excited, just anxious that something else is going to come up. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
