Tomorrow (1/25) is the big day!

All this waiting, waiting, waiting, and testing, testing, testing. I thought the

day would never come! I am starting to think that the day before may be

worse than the day of. My doc required citrus of magnesium and I have been at work in the bathroom for a good chunk of the day.

Silly question - what does one use on one's tush when it feels like it is on fire? I am certainly "cleaned out."

Why am I not totally nervous? I feel pretty calm, almost surreal. Perhaps it's no food!

I am really happy with my decision to have this surgery. I leave for the hospital at 7:30 tomorrow! Here I go! Karen

Welcome to bandland! I hope your surgery went well. Be careful to follow your doctor's advise about staying on liquids, then mushies. You need to heal well to avoid problems later.

Enjoy your weight loss! I lost a lot on liquids (watched the calories and kept them down, no milkshakes...) and mushies slowed it down a bit. It is so exciting to be on your way at last!

Best wishes!
