LRG2014 55 Posted January 6, 2014 I am set for January 14th in Alabama. I was suppose to have it done over the Christmas break but insurance issues came up. So I am now on day 3 of liquids. I feel ok. I haven't cheated. I am very nervous about the surgery but I have come this far and know it is best for me. 1 A_ReNUDE_me reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Debstr66 8 Posted January 6, 2014 I started my clear liquid preop diet today. Doing good so far, kinda hungry though. The low sodium chicken broth with a scoop of chicken flavored Unjury Protein Powder is pretty satisfying. Surgery is first thing Wednesday morning. Can't believe how fast the surgery date came up. Cheers! Deb 1 A_ReNUDE_me reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MingoLiz 2 Posted January 6, 2014 Hello everyone I'm set for Wednesday the 8th in San Antonio TX. I feel excited and nervous at the same time. Not so much nervous for the actual procedure but the adjusting afterwards. But I have lost 12lb on my pre-op diet so I'm very hopeful 1 A_ReNUDE_me reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
