Monie45 22 Posted April 5, 2016 My name is Monie! My surgery date is April 14th, I'm excited and nervous all in one.. But I am believing in the man upstairs to see me through... Today is day 8 of my pre-op "shake down".. Hasn't been that bad. I use Bariatric fusion strawberry shortcake it's very tasty.. 2 shakes a day and lean meat with veggies for dinner.. Starting on the 9th I will only intake the shakes maybe 5 a day. I am so ready for the change. I live in Sunrise Florida and Dr. Fernando Bayron is my surgeon......

april2003 21 Posted April 6, 2016 OMG Monie45. I'm April and I live in Sunrise, FL as well. I'm off to MX next week to have surgery. We should definitely stay in touch. I'm on day 4 of my preop and so far so good. I'm a little tired of the shakes but I'm sticking with it. I was beginning to think I was the only one in Sunrise going through this. I'm so glad you posted. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
