.... I sent you a private message did you receive it? Mine was in the office it's the pre op support group for people getting surgery.. Nope no diet can u believe it!? I felt guilty so I did a Protein shake diet this week considering after the holidays And thinking I was going on a liquid diet I gained 7 pounds ..oops luckily that's the last 7 gained the dietitian was super understanding.. The preop seminar goes over ur b4 surgery Nd the 3 weeks following surgery

Well I did all of that pre op stuff on my Christmas break. Bloodwork, UGI, endoscopy, psych eval, and letter of medical necessity. I have to get more bloodwork done at Good Sam Keri said to get my blood type an other tests done. I don't know why they didn't do it all in one shot. The first time I god bloodwork they did 12 viles!! I'm also getting my medical clearance done on Wednesday . Did they tell you how long you'll be out of work?

The surgery wasn't too bad. It was longer recovery than I expected but its been WELL worth it. I didn't worry too much about pre-op. the band will give u the control u need. I'm in Thiells.

[ireallywannabthin 286]
