Hello,

I hope everyone is doing well.

I just wanted to check in and let you know, I'M ALMOST THERE.

I actually thought this pre-diet would have been alot harder, but I'm doing okay.. better each day...

Have a great weekend and I will keep you all posted.

I go in on Nov. 23rd @ 11:30am... I wonder when I will be home???

Cheers....

Doriana:)

Your doing great Doriana, you should be very proud and excited!!! I'm not very familiar with TLBC, but others will be on later that will know.

Good for you Doriana.....keep it up! Believe me when I say this....I own a fine dining restaurant, I spend 14 hours / day here and we live above the restaurant...even my refridgerator and cupboards in the apartment store restaurant food....so, If I could make it through the pre and post op diet.....then there is absolutely NO EXCUSE why anybody else can't.

Good luck Sweetie...they will treat you very nice at TLBC, you have nothing to worry about.

Thank you so much for your support!!

I just want my BIG day to come FAST!

I was little weak last night, since I didn't have anything to eat. I had a wine and cheese gathering for my friends, but I made it throught the night.

Are you allowed coffee post diet???

Have a great weekend.

I will have to start my own journal soon.....LOL

Ciao for now.

Yes, doriana, I drank coffee after surgery, but I think I waited about a week. I just didnt want to irratate my stomache lining.

Hi Cloe,

I'm doing great.... Yes, it's only 3 more days to go. I'm excited and nervous, but I think that's normal.

How do you drink after wards? Is it 40 min, before eating or after......Sorry, I know it's a stupid question.

I will post alot more..... It's great this Cdn. thread.....

Thanks again for your support.

It varies by Dr., but personally, I'll drink up until I'm ready to eat, and wait 45min-1 hour after. (that is when I think about it, and unless I HAVE to have a drink sooner!)

Good luck, Doriana! Let us know when you get home, as soon as you can!

And, oh yeah... I got to the clinic at 9:30-ish, I went in for surgery at about 10:30, and left by 1pm. They didn't rush me out, I'm sure I could have stayed much longer, but I was in a weird "I gotta get outta here!" mood! I was up and putting on my pants the second the nurse gave them to me (got in trouble, cause she was supposed to help!)

You must be quite excited by now Doriana. I hope it all goes well for you. Can you let me know how it went when you get home and feel like it? Thanks.
