next12bbanded 0 Posted April 2, 2008 I am from Lancaster, A small town about 45 minutes from Dubuque Iowa. Are you nervous yet? I have 3 kids 12, 11 and 7 but they dont know what I am going to Colorado for. Do you have any kids? Are you on a pre-op diet? I am, sort of like the Atkins one, but I have limited amounts I can eat, and no food with any form of sugar. So needless to say, I will be taking several hours at Wal-mart this weekend trying to find some food that I will be able to eat! I will be starting it on the 9th....OH My One week from today! Its kinda of going by fast, but sometimes seems soooo slow!! I quit smoking on Friday March 21st though, So Its been a little tough! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
pearlygirl 1 Posted April 8, 2008 Me too!! I'm scheduled for the 23rd in Omaha at 9:30...I have to be there at 7:30! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Brandy~ 2 Posted April 9, 2008 My surgery is 4/23! I am having mine done at the Bariatric center of excellence in Eugene, Oregon with Dr. Umbach. At this time I do not have a pre op diet. I was told by the surgeon if I lose 5-10 pounds that I wont have to do a liquid diet. I am still dieting even tho I went over that and hope to lose a couple more before my preop appt on 4/17.
