My surgery is 2 weeks from tomorrow. I am trying to put a list together to go shopping. I know I will need lots of liquids, sugar free popsicles, sugar pudding and jello. I am so excited. I can't wait to get this done. What will you be buying?
Any suggestions on what to take to the hospitlal?
If you haven't already, take this time to start new habits. You still have a choice to eat what you want, but after surgery... Your new stomach chooses for you!
I went through a "mourning" of food before surgery. I took that last two weeks to say good bye to all of my old habits, and prepare myself mentally for this life changing event. Prepare yourself physically (such as walking) too. The better physical shape you're in, the quicker your recovery. I'm sure you've heard it all before, but I took the same advice and was up and ready to go 3 days after gastric bypass. The first few days can be very painful, so have your pain meds ready!
It's only a few days and then you're on your way to success.
Best wishes to you! Sincerely, Jeannine.
As we all know thing change, well also my surgery date changed again. Now it is now MARCH 23th. 
I can not stress that I can not wait. I feel all the time and effort has paid off. I have learned so much in this time and understand what I need to go for the rest of my life. I thank God
