I'll be having the full bypass on Dec 6th...

I am so so excited but also scared.

Can anyone give me any good advice?

Start my Protein shakes tomorrow.. Only one a day.

Go back on Nov 16th for the class they have you take before surgery then my last appointment before surgery ! Ek! I'm so excited

Don't over-buy! I bought broths and Soups and stuff for the hospital- -everything anyone suggested. I didn't need 95% of it.

Lose as much as you can before surgery. You won't regret being closer to goal.

Don't mess with food funerals. You will be able to eat again, but you probably won't feel the same. I no longer get intense pleasure from feeling full line I used to, so I can take a single bite of my husband's burger and be satisfied.

Find exercise you like now. It doesn't have to be in a gym. Find something you'll enjoy and stick to and start now (but you'll probably need to take a 4-6 week break after surgery).

Take this time to do your research so you won't be shocked when you stall, or you won't eat anything harmful. People ask the same half dozen questions every few days, so follow the boards religiously until surgery, and most of your questions will be answered before you know to ask.
