[lose4life2 152]

Hello, My surgery is scheduled Sept. 23rd. I am excited and nervous at the same time however I just keep thinking of the positive! I have a friend who had the surgery and she is doing a great job! She's my inspiration and also lends a big hand when my brain spits a million questions out! Keep in touch to let us know how your journey goes! Best of Luck!

Seems to be a growing list of 9/23!!!! Congratulations!! We need to keep an eye on each other!!

Yes! I start on 09/11, following my last nutritional appointment. Three shakes and one sensible meal (lean Protein and green veggies only).

My surgery is tomorrow (9/3/14) at noon! My surgeon (Dr. Atkinson in Las Vegas) had no pre-op diet, I just can't have anything to eat or drink after 10pm the night before surgery. All he asked was for me to NOT gain weight (which I have not). But I got to reading the paperwork tonight and it said "This surgery is usually completed using laparoscopy alone, but circumstances may necessitate conversion of the operation to an open approach for your safety." I am wishing I had a pre-op diet now, but I followed all of his instructions.

Hi everyone! I'm new to the forum and just wanted to share my surgery date as well... Sept 11th is the day for me. Sooo many emotions running through me. All I have to say is, there are so many people's lives about to change this month. Looking forward to a healthier me. Is there anyone in the Houston area? Congrats everyone!

My surgery is also tomorrow at noon in Boise Idaho. And my surgeon didn't have up a diet plan scheduled for me just not to gain weight.
