Topic: RE: Surgery Tomorrow....wooo hooooo
Good luck tomorrow! I am scheduled too.
I took the Mag Citrate starting a 5 PM 2 oz, nothing happened then 2 more, nothing etc. I have officially finished the bottle and I think it kicked it. Given it is 11:30 PM I can bet I will be up most of the night. Oh well. At least there will be drugs tomorrow that will help me sleep!
Good luck.

My surgery date is the 18th as well. My doctor asked me to go on a low carb diet for about a week before surgery then a clear liquid diet which I have now been on for two days. It isn't as bad as I thought it would be...I think I am just ready to get the show on the road.
Good luck tomorrow and keep us posted on your progress.

Topic: Surgery Tomorrow....wooo hooooo
Tomorrow is my big day...have to check in at the hospital at 5:30 am. I feel like I should be anxious or nervous but I'm not ..(not yet any way :))
I took the Mag Citrate over an hour ago and was a bit apprehensive about it as i was told that I would be staying on the commode...nothing yet but I can't help but wonder what could possible need to be expelled considering I have had nothing but clear liquids for 2 full days now.
Oh well...Wish me luck...catch up with you all on the return trip.

My date is the 23rd also. I know what you mean about being both excited and scared. I've been struggling with my weight for 50 years now and I'm afraid this effort will ultimately fail too. I've always been able to lose weight but unable to keep it off. I'm counting on the band being the tool I need to help me stop sabotaging myself.
I also live alone and will be counting on the support here to help me stay on track. My mantra will be "we can do together what we cannot do alone." I'll keep you in my prayers.

Topic: surgery date Feb 23, 2010
I am excited, a little scared and ready to work the program. I am going to use this tool to reclaim my healt through exercise, focus and diet. I am so ready.But here is a laugh. My surgery is in Potomac Hospital. You get a single room that family can stay in and wait. The funny part is you get room service and can order anything you want to eat. But wait I cant eat. I wonder with the jello selectin looks like. Anyway Pray for me. If any one lives in Fredericksburg please give me a call after I return home for support. I live alone and mysister can only stay a couple of days. so outside support and friendship will be happily accepted. Thanks to all, peace and blessings to all.

@ChargerChick17 - How are you doing with your shakes? Have you been able to mix with skim milk or water? I rather enjoyed by shakes with non fat milk. I start mine tomorrow! I am so excited. Clear liquids for 10 days has been rough.
