Proud2BMe 1,016 Posted April 16, 2015 May 12! I've been on this journey for so long that I can't believe it's almost here! I'm nervous and want to begin my pre-op diet immediately but I think I should have some "food funerals" first. I plan on going to my fave Chinese restaurant before starting the pre-op diet. Man, I can't wait for the brand new me! Wish me luck! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Proud2BMe 1,016 Posted April 16, 2015 @@sh1211 LOL! Well, good luck to you as well! Yeah, definitely have some food funeral, especially with food and restaurants that you know you will not be able to go to for a very long time. I love Chinese but it's almost entirely starches so they have to go. So I'm going to pig out one last time. Love me some eggrolls deepfried in peanut oil! I'm also going to go the casino and eat their awesome buffet one last time before the surgery. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jesser 295 Posted April 20, 2015 I had Dr Zavalza. Very good doctor! Don't be worried at all. Dr. Almanza was the one you needed to be worried about and they don't work with him any longer. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
