Toodie1974 39 Posted December 30, 2014 My nutritionist told me last Monday my surgery will probably be mid February. I am so ready to have it now. I go for my 6th weigh in (mandatory 6 months weight loss program) on January 21st; she told me at that time we will discuss my pre-op diet. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jana64 65 Posted December 31, 2014 I have started buying my supplies for after my surgery, this is what I have so far (from my doctor's list): Gauze Bandages and paper tape gas-x strips more Water for my CPAP machine Vitamins B-12, C, D, Multivitamin, Calcium - all chewable or dissolvable. I have yet to buy foods, because my kids will eat and drink it all. I want to buy another bedside table, because mine has a broken drawer and I am tired of the clutter. I feel like I am nesting. Is anyone else nesting? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jana64 65 Posted December 31, 2014 Here is a sheet which, if you choose to participate, can list all of our surgery dates and progress. https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1aVqpjHKQORE5adLPPEnRC50R5jbjZpgNWkGTZDGePWk/edit?usp=sharing This is only open to those with the link. Just add your information. Do not put anything in column D, it will auto calculate. Then, as you lose weight, you can go in and edit your weight loss by putting a new number in column C. Remember to put either a minus sign in front of the number in column C or put the number in parenthesis: -265 or (265). This makes the number subtract.

Kmgaustin 6 Posted January 4, 2015 I am scheduled for feb 12,2014 in Mexico, Tijuania. I am nervous as hell. I am nervous mostly for after the and how I will work. I took from feb 12 till feb 26th off. I stand all day but can sit from time to time on my own stool i am bringing. I work as a veterinary receptionist and it is actually a hard job at times. having to go grab heavy food for clients run around and do this and that. and the hours are long. My job is not understanding at all. I am more scared about that then the real matters at hand like the diet i need to starts jan 30th before surgery and eating afterwards!!

KatieD6982 68 Posted January 5, 2015 (edited) I have my Surgery Class, Meeting with Director of Bariatric Program at Hospital, Ultrasound and labs on January 22nd and then my psych eval on January 29th here at my local clinic. I think that counts as my FIFTH month so February would be my sixth month....so now I'm thinking I probably won't have surgery until March. But, here's hoping!!!
