Topic: So how have you prepared for your surgery?
I finished my shopping this weekend. 
I bought toddler plates, a small bowl, tiny round screw on Rubbermaid containers, baby spoons, Isopure liquid nutritional  drink, protein shakes, a comfy outfit to wear to surgery, disposable sippy cups,  some pureed baby foods (mainly veggies) and a divided powder  container (made for infant formula) for protein powder to keep in my purse.

Yes, I'm jumping the gun a bit, but my dh will be useless doing any shopping for me after my surgery.

Hey Greg K,

I have my surgery scheduled with Dr. Mecenas Feb 9th too!  I'm going to be the first sleeve done through his office.   He's done many DS surgeries but never just the sleeve part alone.

I'm scheduled for the 9th.  I have no second thoughts at all.  The incidence of complications is so low that I'm not going to worry about it.  I read these forums all the time.  I feel bad for the people that do have complications, but I do not believe that I will be one of them.  I have selected an excellent surgeon that I am putting my trust in.

Just stay calm and stay on program and everything will be fine.

Topic: RE: Feb 10th
  I started the pre-op diet early to take care of weight gain from the "Last Suppers" I enjoyed.   I have lost a lot of weight, mostly water likely since I am on low carb, and am feeling rather light-headed but determined.  Still haven't opened the Profect yet.  I am really into Muscle Milk Light that I bought at Costco.  Tomorrow, I am off to Wal Mart to see what I can find for cheap.

Good luck to all my friends who are scheduled for Feb. 10th!

Actually, I am pretty amused that it's GH Day...for me, it's a good omen and a good fit for my life.
Good luck to you too!

I am scheduled for the 16th Diane and I fell like you.  Anxious.  I too am reading too much but I also believe we have to go into this with full knowledge.  I am not sure if I can do this yet.  I guess we'll see on the 16th.

May we all make the right decisions that our best for us.

Hey :)  My surgery is on Ground Hog Day too!  Didn't realize that until my friend pointed it out to me last night.  When I first scheduled my date, I was pretty scared and anxious, and wondering if I was going to go through with it.  As the date  approaches, I am excited and anxious to get started with my new way of life.  I'm eating out a lot, and also preparing my kitchen for the things I'll need (Magic Bullet, tryng different shakes, getting childsized utensils and plates, etc).
