Thanks, Pete! It's probably a good thing to let this go until 11/24 - With the holiday and offices closed for that, most of the December dates will probably be assigned by then and they will be starting to work on January.

We have just a little over 3 weeks - I am starting to get excited!

I'm waiting on approval and thinking possitive that I will be banded in Dec :eek:

When I make a banner it tells me that I do not have enough space even if I remove things. Is there another place to put it than edit signature? I see some are larger than mine so maybe I'm doing something wrong.

I made the banner in photoshop. If anyone wants to use it I am happy to share the code :laugh:

I went ahead and stole it, copy/paste style!

If we end up with a different name, can we count on you to come up with the banner for the new name?

Ugh..Holiday Hotties is in the lead. For some reason I really don't like that name. But I'll live with it either way.

I'm just so excited that it's getting closer to the big day!!!

I know, I really hate that name. If it wins I just won't put a banner in my signature, that's all.

But everyone else should of course feel free - after all, majority rules!

The good news is they Moved it to Next Week November 18th.. I was not nervous before but now I am Really nervous. I keep thinking of everything I need to do to get Ready and seems like I don't have enough time..

Wow - that was a happy change for you! I don't think I have heard of anyone actually getting their surgery moved up instead of back. I am with you on the unprepared scene. I would have a heck of a time trying to get everything together for an earlier date (but would take it if they told me to!! teehee).

Best of luck to you. Keep us posted on your progress! :)

I was suprised too. When the Dr's office called me this morning they were originally going to change my date to the 22nd of December but the company I work for is getting ready to change insurance so the Dr found a time to fit me in earlier. I guess that is the benefit of being from a small town in Nebraska.

Well really that is great to have your surgery moved up! Congrats on that and don't stress to much over it. Remember this means you get to start your new life earlier rather then later! :thumbup:

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
