May 19th Date...

[jeni2u 2]

Hi ladies my surgery date is also the 19th I'm in Oregon. I do have a pre-op diet. Yuck!

I'm scheduled for My 19th too! I also have a 4 hr appointment on May 4th and start my pre-op the next day. Not liquids but all high Protein low carb from the store inside my surgeons clinic. In Grand Rapids, Mi with Dr. Paul Kemmerer! I'M SOOOO excited! How are people prepping at home? I feel like I should be nesting like before I had my daughter. So far all I've done is separate clothes in my closet to what I'm wearing now vs. some smaller items from years past that might fit when I return to work. I'm a nurse manager and have to dress up for work-excited for new clothes but not looking forward to the cost of constantly changing wardrobes.

My Dr suggested buying kiddie spoons, forks, plates and a sippie cup. I felt a little awkward buying them since my youngest child is 16...Haha I have never been a shopper, so the idea of buying all new clothes doesn't appeal to me. Maybe that will change when I get to buy smaller clothes. On the 11th I go to the hospital for a full day of pre op testing. I think that's when it will finally hit me that this is going to happen!!!!

Gracy0721 I felt the same way. My youngest is 17. I am getting nervous about my surgery on 5/18.

I'm scheduled for May 8th (6 days!). I do not have any pre op diet Getting both excited and nervous. I think I'm going to miss my morning coffee the most.

Hi there. New to forum but also scheduled for 19 May in UK. Pre-op diet starts Tuesday

Has anyone bought their supplements yet? I decided to wait until after my pre op appt and visit with the Nut..

[Okinawa girl 29]

I have not. When I go to my 4 hour NUT class on Tuesday I will leave with a 1 month supply of supplements. This is one thing included in our 350 dollar program fee

I had my pre-surgical class with the RN and nut last week so I bought mine. I ordered a chewable Multivitamin and several different types of Protein Powder to try. I ordered Calcium supplements as well. I have Biotin and Vitamin D at home already. I also ordered a Blender Bottle that the nut recommended for Protein Shakes.< /p>

[Gracy0721 63]

I'm anxious to see what I need to purchase. I want to try some Isopure drinks.

Gracy0721 I tried them they have an after taste but I got use to it.

[Gracy0721 63]

Did you like any one better than the others?

Anyone else feel like this is going to be the longest week of your life?! I tried to really fill my work calendar to keep me occupied and so I won't be too behind when I get back to work but I feel like time is moving in slow motion!
