Liquids today, surgery tomorrow! YEAH!!!

Hi Everyone! I've officially started my pre-surgery clear liquid diet. I check in for surgery tomorrow at 10am and surgery is scheduled to start at 1pm. I'm so excited! I'm finally only a day away from beginning my new life as the new and improved healthier, smaller version of me! I can't wait! I'm more excited than nervous at this point. I'd like to thank you all for your support and kind words. I'll be keeping all of you in my thoughts and prayers and hope you'll be so kind as to do the same for me. I'd also appreciate it if you'd all sign my surgery page: http://www.obesityhelp.com/morbidobesity/status.phtml?N=B1085470003 I'm planning on printing it out and taking it to the hospital with me so I can read all the encouraging words before surgery. It's comforting to me to know that there are so many people out there who care so much for each other and provide such positive support. Thank you! Love & Hugs! Julia

Hi Julia...Good luck on your new birthday. I am two weeks post op and completely off my diabetes med (glucophage). Also, my primary care doctor took me off my blood pressure med yesterday because my bp was maintaining at 120/80. So I wish you all the best too. There is so much to look forward to when you begin your life after WLS. God Bless you and your family...for they are your most immediate support group. Cindy Bolin

Hi Cindy! It's so encouraging to hear that you're health has improved so much in just 2 weeks. I have diabetes and hypertension too and am hoping to do as well as you! You're in my thoughts and prayer as you continue your journey. Julia
