Jenny_Baldwin 27 Posted December 16, 2015 My bag was much of the same. Packed a couple of my own night gowns. Not necessary, but made me more comfy once the catheter came out. I must say, the distractions you packed (electronics, books, etc)...I found myself so sleepy, that was my distraction! :-) GOOD LUCK! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

cowgirlchris 4 Posted December 18, 2015 I am scheduled for December 28th (12:45pm)! Started the 2-week all-liquid diet today. Ugh. Good luck. I hope you're doing well. I started my 2 week pre-op diet on the 15th. The headache is the worst thing in the world. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SaaxySam09 17 Posted December 21, 2015 Hello December-er's! (ha) How is everyone doing? Some have had surgery, and some are on their pre-surgery diet. I am super excited and ready to do this thing. People dealing with everything well? Would love to see more updates. So happy to have found BariatricPal, it has at least helped me a lot with the process I am going through. I have one week left until my big day! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
