jubug 9 Posted February 2, 2016 Started the pre op diet yesterday...needless to say, was not in the best of moods last night and had a major headache! Today is a new day though. I went in for my pre op appointment this morning and I guess that's the last thing, until my surgery on the 15th. I'm ready to get this thing done! Anyone else ready? ????

syjaeger84@gmail.com 9 Posted February 7, 2016 Hi Shiloh 2004! We have pre op spot. the same date as well as our sleeve on the 15th. ????. Good luck to you!!Newbe312, we are going to be so successful at this. My pre op visit didn't amount to much. A bunch of medical history, an EKG, blood work, and x-rays. I have to be at the hospital at 7:30 AM on the 15th, and my surgery is scheduled for 9:30. My surgeon wants me up and walking as much as possible on the day of surgery. I supposedly get out the next day in the afternoon. What about you? How are you doing on your pre op diet? My biggest problem is finding the energy to exercise, but I try to do it every day. Best of luck to you! Thoughts and prayers are with you! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Newbe312 26 Posted February 10, 2016 Hi Shiloh 2004! My preop visit was spent going over what to do for preop diet and getting ready day of surgery. I won't find out until Friday what time the surgery is scheduled for. I have to call between 2-4. Just started preop diet today. I only have to do 5 days...Missing my morning bagel but I know I can do this!!! And we are going to be successful! How is your preop diet going? Best of luck on surgery day!! I am sending hugs and prayers for a speedy recovery!! ???? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Shiloh2004 20 Posted February 11, 2016 Yes, I began my pre-op diet on Feb. 1. It certainly hasn't been easy, but I will make it. 4 days and counting until surgery. That's when my new, healthier, happier life will begin! Can't wait! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
