We'll I had my final visit today at the surgeons office...4.5 hours long!! Good thing is I'm 12 pounds down from my first visit with him.

I am on info overload tonight!! Plus I have a 3 hour drive one way so it has been a LONG day!!

They require a high protein/very low carb (20 gms or less) diet from now until my surgery Dec 2. The day before Clear Liquids only...

Have more to share but it will have to wait until tomorrow...

Just finished my last nut class Wednesday and found out I have been submitted to insurance on Monday! I was soo excited to finally have progress. Talked with my bariatric nurse who said I should know something no later than 22nd of this month!

My nut told me... Any baby food was ok. Didn't have to watch carbs sugar or calories at first because I'll need those in irder to get enough calories in until reg foods

I am still here although I have been having some issues with this site and the internet. Not sure which. Well, it is official the date is Dec 4th. I am all approved and all is good. I am not sure what to do now. LOL. I am both nervous and a bit scared. I am wanting this to be done and can't stand the wait. I have been waiting for years. I just hope that it goes by some what fast.

On the iPad app, try clicking on the second to last page, then the last page. It's the way I've been able to see the most current posts in older, long threads.

Congrats Janifer on your surgery!!!!! Brandii, still on the baby food thinking.........I would think you would need to watch the sugar so you wouldn't have any dumping...or maybe babyfood doesn't have much sugar????? My kids are older so it's been a looooonnnng time since i have looked at babyfood. Waiting on insurance approval....and waiting and waiting....I am getting impatient with all of this waitinnnngggg!

I am scheduled for December 17th. This is my first posting ever on this site. I am currently reading the RYGB "Big Book".

Hello all! I've been on this site from time to time during my six month diet. I finished all that and finally got a surgery date of December 11th and am cramming all my pre-op stuff in within the next couple of weeks. That's stressful. Other than that, I'm stoked. Scared and anxious but excited. Can't wait to use this forum a lot more to get to know you guys and go through this process together. My surgeon doesn't have any pre surgery diets fortunately so I plan to eat at Thanksgiving like there is no tomorrow and sit around at Christmas hating everyone stuffing their faces, lol. I ordered all my Vitamins last night along with some Protein. My wallet is crying! Thanks for listening and I look forward to getting to know you guys!
