That's good to hear!!! I was to have my surgery tomorron 6/1 but minor setback on Dr. part but I will be going in on 6/23 if not sooner. I've already supplemented two of my meals with protein shakes and in 3 weeks I've lost 14lbs.

My only suggestion is to start on the Protein shakes now so when those 1st 3days post op come around it wont be a killer.

Congrats!!!!!

Topic: Counting Down

Ok yall June surgery babies.....I started the count down. I'm suppose to start my pre-op diet on the 12th. I have to have bllod work done on the 9th and register for my stay on that same day.

Boy tommorrow will be day 1 for me. I was thinking of starting my pre-op on the 9th to get the three day of real tourure out of the way then it would be smooth sailing by day 12 when I'm suppose to start, I figure I'd get the *itch phase out at home so they work doesn't catch the all the hell.

I've done liquid diet before and the 1st three days are a killer then after your body has detox from teh sugar and the CARBS I will be fine.

But if I start on the 1st by the time the surgery rolls around my liver will be normal size.

Any suggestions from you all?????

I'll be praying for you. The decision in the end is up to you. On top of the surgery you have a lot of other things to worry about. God Bless and Keep you!

I know how you feel girl. I am a big baby, The closer it gets the more terrified I become. But we are strong, we are women, Hear us ROAR. You are in my prayers along with all our other June brothers and sisters. Just think of how GREAT you are going to look in the HOT outfit you have picked out to buy when you reach your goal weight. If you havent picked one out yet. do it, it will keep your mind off tomorrow. Best of luck to you and Prayers for a speedy surgery and recovery.

I still haven't decided on the dogs. I am increasingly nervous as the time gets closer!

You will do great! I can't wait to hear from you June 1st people on the other side. Don't be afraid of the needles--just don't look. It isn't as bad as your brain makes it out to be.

Here's to an uneventful surgery and quick recovery.

I will be thinking about you guys. I know everythig will go well. Before you know it you will be home and on your way to recovery.

I am looking forward to my surgery but I am nervous also. I just can't wait to be off of all of my medications and be on the road to a healthier me.

Please keep us posted on your recovery.
