Ms.Nya 27 Posted July 10, 2013 I just got home from my preop testing too. Just have to get medical clearance from my primary on Thursday and I will be all set for Monday My surgery is on Monday too..... I hope. I had my pre op yesterday and that Dr. called today to say that my EKG showed extra beats so my pcp wants me to see a cardiologist I have an appointment with the cardiologist on Thursday and hopefully everything will be okay and I can go ahead with the surgery on Monday as scheduled. I'm so nervous it's gonna get postponed or canceled. I keep thinking in the back of my mind that this won't work, just like nothing else I've ever tried to lose weight has worked.

penman53 493 Posted July 10, 2013 July 24th for me. I went to my pre op nutrition class, surgical briefing and last doctors visit before the big day. Even though I don't start my prep until sunday, My wife and I have already made up a list of all the foods that I will need and she is going to make all of my low fat cream Soups that are required. Much more healthy and alot cheaper. I have been looking at some of the crazy prices for all of the "bariatric friendly" foods and sometimes you need to put on the brakes and look at the situation. I am so glad that I have a partner like my wife Betty to help me with this transision. 2 Daydra and nmck reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

sbd1044 11 Posted July 10, 2013 Tomorrow is the big day for me! I am feeling super nervous today. I feel the butterflies flying around in my soon to be smaller stomach. I can't wait for it to be over! I have lost 9 lbs on the liquid diet. My goal was 10. I am pretty short, so I am okay with 9. Heading to the store soon to pick up a new robe! 1 KitKat40 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
