today is my first day on my liquid pre op diet. I happen to find this site on google. I'm glad I did, my surgery is scheduled for Tuesday August 27th.

Good Luck!!

thank you. Do you or anyone else know about how long the recovery time is out of work?

They told me I could have my surgery on Thursday and go back to work Monday, but I took a week off to make sure I felt ok. I did go into work for 6 hours Tuesday following Thursday surgery. If you can take the time, I would.

I am having mine done in Sayre, PA. I have not seen very many people on here that are from this area. Best of luck to you and I hope to hear about your progress.

well today is my second day on my pre-op liquid diet. it's not going too bad, I'm drinking and I'm really not hungry but I'm missing eating. I'm craving to chew. I picked up some sugar free ice pops today, that did help.

Hey! State College PA here, your date is coming up how exciting! Work depends a lot on what you do and your doctor recommends ..some go back within a week others need more time..I will be taking about 3 weeks off...good luck..also if you search there are a few threads going around for PA sleevers!
