Hello all you Januaryites - I'm the 20th

This is day 7 of my VLCD and a week tomorrow I'll be having my surgery.  I feel very excited and right now I'm full of energy. I can't really understand that, and I'm not hating the VLCD as much as I thought I would. I have 3 shakes a day plus a cup of steamed veges on my surgeons programme and have been trying to make the vegies interesting - which is actually making me thing about how to cook nutritious meals O.o

So how many 20ths are there?

My RNY is scheduled for the 20th.  I began my liquid diet today.  I'm excited but scared. I started my liquid diet today - no veggies, though.  So far so good.

Best wishes to you.  Keep us posted.

Welcome to the board. I'm having surgery on the 20th too. We are now in the single digits of the counting game. Wishing you the best on your journey.

I'm having my VSG on the 20th.  It was suppossed to be tomorrow but got moved back a week due to bacteria in my stomach and I had to be on antibiotics for 2 weeks.  We're in the single digits and starting to get a little anxious/nervous.  Mostly excited though.

Hi, All,

My surgery is scheduled for the 22nd.  I'm not too nervous, yet!  My pre-surgery diet is prepackaged foods that are really quite tastey.  I was dreading the liquids only.  What a pleasant surprise. 

Anyway, good luck to all of us!

Hellllooooooo

I'm on the 20th as well. I'm on day 7 of my liquid diet. Only 8 more days to go - woo hoo!!!

I'm excited, nervous, but mostly I seem to have ants in my pants and no ability to concentrate on anything! I have tons of energy too, but I've also been pretty grumpy on the liquid diet. I'm stomach is still very crampy and noisy. I have some had hunger too, but for the most part, it seems to be my stiomach that is grouching about no food.
