rmartone03 0 Posted October 20, 2008 Hey everyone, November 10th for me. I start my liquid diet tomorrow (10/20/08) Very nervous.. Is it true that most of us will be on morphine when we wake up? Just curious.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TQUAD64 9 Posted October 20, 2008 Hi rmartone3: You will have some type of pain reliever, but it will be different for everyone. I will not have morphine, since I am allergic to it. Good luck with your surgery. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mammanan 0 Posted October 21, 2008 November 6 with Dr Jones at Methodist Hospital in St. Louis Park MN Starting that lo-carb liquid diet today!!! Finally!! I've been at this process since February... feels so good to started!! :Dancing_biggrin: Nancy Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sistasassy 6 Posted October 21, 2008 TQUAD64! How exciting! So far, it looks like we are on the only ones on the 11th. I had the option to have surgery on the 14th but my birthday is the next day and I did not care to be on the hospital on that day. (my doc requires an overnight stay for everyone) PLUS, it will put me that much closer to mushies by Thanksgiving. We are going to a HUGE family dinner that day and being on liquids will stink.....but will still be sooooooo worth it, if I am. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

roseyyyd1 0 Posted October 24, 2008 Hi All Notorious Novembers... I have an official change of date (hopefully the last one), I will be having surgery in December of this year. Just wanted to wish each of you well on your journey with the band and i.e. getting healthy! It seems like a pretty good group going on as good support for one another! Blessings!
