Topic: RE: DR JOYA in JUNE on the 8th
Well, I am also getting mine done on the 8th.  I am excited.  I keep remembering this is the first step for the rest of MY life.  As far as being hungry get a good liquid supplement.  I am using HMR.  Slimfast is also liquid.  I am not required to have clear liquids.  Are you?

I am so happy for you!  Well, about the surgery, not about the UTI.   I, too, am nervous and excited....I think it is probably par for the course.

So I got the call from the surgeon's office. My last preop blood work was fine, but I do have a UTI so as long as I finish the antibiotics by Sunday I should be good for surgery. I'm picking up the meds tonight! I hope they don't make me too sick though because I usually have to eat with antibiotics, but we'll see. I'll just have to suffer through if they do. I was so worried they were going to postpone things, but as long as things go well everything is still on!

I'm nervous and excited!

Hey there, Congrats on your date!  It's exciting isn't it. I am scheduled for June 2nd and I'm very very happy i've made this decision and have the opportunity to have a new journey.

I haven't told many people also, not sure why? afraid of negative comments I guess. I have told some close friends and family and they have been mixed there too..... some happy, some not.

I just have to be good to myself and not worry about others.

good luck with your journey....

cheers!

Hey guys..... guess what........ 13 DAYS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Woohoo!!!!!!!! :)

I'm on Day 2 of my liquid diet. I've been doing pretty well so far... although I caved and ate a piece of watermelon. But hey... it's WATERmelon, right? (Bad, I know)....

I've been slamming the protein drinks.... if you mix them thick enough, they seem a little more filling. I also went to Sam's Club and bought a few cases of various drinks (they all fall into the Dr's guidelines as far as nutritional content).... TreeTop Trim Juice, Flavored Water, Atkin's Shakes... etc.

Anyway, aside from the headache (caffeine withdrawal)..... it's really not too bad so far!!!! The worst part is having to go pee every 20 minutes. I'm tempted to move my office desk into the janitor's closet by the bathroom.... sigh. LOL :)

But the good news is..........

13 MORE DAYS!!!!!!!!!! :)
