Cabingirl 55 Posted August 5, 2013 I'm scheduled for the 15th - excited and terrified (I have a very large type 3 hiatal hernia that will be repaired first, then what's left of my tummy will be sleeved). I just found out that my BFF is flying cross country to be with me and my fam for the surgery, and I'm so excited. 2 tina5978 and Mocha2871 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
aTXtumbleweed 7 Posted August 5, 2013 Congratulations!!!! I start my pre-op diet tomorrow for 2 weeks - surgery on 8/19. Diet consists of mostly Protein Shakes, yogurt, cheese, strained Soups, apple sauce, Jello and fat free and sugar free pudding. Oh and oatmeal, cream of wheat and skim milk. No caffeine or carbonated beverages.< /p> Blessings all! You must be in my area - my diet is exactly the same. I'm having mine done at Baylor of Grapevine.

kim.cooper 40 Posted August 7, 2013 I'm having mine done on August 19th' date=' and an incredibly excited! I'm trying to be better about my eating (a big step for me, as I love junk food) and today when I realized I needed groceries, I put on the brand new walking shoes I bought yesterday, threw on my backpack, and walked a mile to the store! Whatever I purchased, I carried home on my back or in a bag. In this crazy heat, the sweat ran like rain, my friend! LOL! Anyway, eating better and going to try to walk 45 min (at least) 5 days a week. I'm new to the site and would love some new friends to go through the process with too! Good luck![/quote'] You're a stronger woman than me to get your walking done outside this time of year...this Texas heat makes it pretty much unbearable for me! Kudos to you for being so committed!
