Topic: RE: RNY scheduled - 27 Feb
I've been drinking this in the mornings for the past week, except that I'm using a chocolate protein powder instead of the instant breakfast. It is pretty good.

That is my train of thought also. It is harder than you would think. I've never been on a "liquid protein" diet before. Maybe I'm just not drinking enough of it but......I get so hungry! 
I haven't made it thru a whole day yet but have 3 weeks to go before it is the real thing! I'm going to make the chicken broth protein drink this weekend and freeze some of it. I have chocolate stuff for the mornings and got a couple of samples from bariatriceating.com to try. Will order some others from there and also plan to visit GNC to see what they have. I tried to add you to my "friends" group but don't know if it worked. If you get the invite multiple times....SORRY....that is just user error...not a computer glitch.

Topic: RE: I have a February date!!
Yes, it was pretty quick & easy. I guess that is why it doesn't seem real yet. The nurses at Scott & White took care of everything. All of my Drs. are supportive. I had to have some special appts (cardiology and mammo 
) but other than that, all was easy.
We have TriCare Prime (hubby is retired military); which, I've been told, if you meet all the requirements, they have a same day turn-around. I haven't really met my surgeon yet, except to listen to him at the seminar. That makes me a bit nervous! 
Guess all will be clear on the 12th....my pre-op day.

Hi Mariam,
You've been added to the list. I think I will put the next update out tonight as I keep getting updates.

Regarding your pre-op testing. I don't know for sure, but would ask on the general board. I would think you would want it as soon as possible (all tests) so if there is a concern or something that comes up you can have additional tests without affecting your surgery date. However, I am new to this too - that is just my thought. One thing I have learned is that all surgical groups seem to be different.
Happy testing!
Shelley
