Lol...my appointment is tomorrow at 5:10 too.

I'm going in tomorrow for a check-up/possible fill. My appointment is for 5:00 maybe I'll see a couple of you there. I think (crossing fingers) that I will be down a couple this time. Oh how I hope so! I'm booked to be in with one of the Doc's this time as I haven't seen either of them in quite some time.

Hmmm. Hope the wait isn't too long. I think I'll call Jen tomorrow to confirm my time. See you guys there!

Hi Folks, New guy in the house!!

Just had my dietitian appt @ Maple and I have the shrink this Friday. My op is scheduled for the 8th of Dec, and I can't wait to get on with it. OK, the 600-700 cal/day crash diet is going to be a bit hard, but I'm psyched. Then again, keep checking this forum and talk to me again in three weeks time (I wonder what font signifies ripping someone's head off?).:w00t:

Glad to be here and off we go!!

Thanks to everyone for the warm welcome. Day 4 of the infamous pre-op diet and I'm still doing good.

Bring on the surgery!!!

[divaofhighmaintenance 0]

Welcome Boomboy64. You will not regret this. It works!

Operation Sept. 29 2009

off BP meds

40 pounds down

[Boomboy64 0]

WoHoo!! 1 week of the !@#$%& pre-op diet done, and down 13 lbs already! I feel like a supermodel a week before Milan!!

So far I haven't really had any problems following the diet, work is a great distraction. The only two issues I've noticed are that my energy crashes around 9 pm and that I'm extremely gassy. The former is probably normal as 600 cals/day isn't a lot of energy, but anyone have the gas issue?

2 weeks to go!!:thumbup:

Cheers,

Boomboy

Congrats on surviving week one! As for gas issues.. not some much gas, however I did notice that my bm's were not what the used to be. Guess lack of actual food will do that to a person.

Hello Everyone,

I'm brand new here. Danielle just told me about this forum yesterday! I love the fact there is a group here where everyone understands what your going through!

So far 3 days in on the pre-op diet...WOW...I think my energy crashes shortly after work! But I'll be happy once its over and I can have something other than the shakes/bars yuck!

Anyway my surgery is Dec 8. And I'm looking forward to it!

All the best everyone!:thumbup:

Welcome!!

Another 8 Dec person... Mine is then also. Don't know the time yet.

I know what you mean about the shakes... But I find that if I use them with about 500ml instead of the stated 300ml of Water, they don't taste half bad...

Looking forward to seeing you around the forum...

Cheers,

Day 9 of 20 days, 18 lbs down...

[this.is.4.me 0]

Thanks for the tip. I don't have my time yet either!

I definitely think the shakes taste better than they smell! Its been quite an adjustment, I hopped on the scale and noticed I'm down almost 5lbs since Tuesday.

Anyway see you around! :thumbup:

My wife says there is an art form to making the shakes . five ice.... crushed first....then add powder....then Water on top....blend in blender for about an hour or so..at least that what it seems like.....good luck noobies :biggrin:
