Date Changed to Oct 26th

First, thank you for all the well wishes and Losers joining me on the bench for October 13th!  

Went for my Pre-Op appointment on Wednesday 10/07 and was informed that they are going to have to move my date to October 26th.  I had already started my pre-op diet because my Doc requested 2 weeks pre op and was being a good patient and doing as told.   So . . . . I decided to stay on the semi-pre op liquid diet with one meal as a freebie for me for the next four days.   What I have discovered it I really don't want the food; it's not appealing to me at all.   Which is OK & I am kinda glad because I am thinking this will make it easier post-op.  

Oh, and for any of you that are worried about Vitamins & Meal Replacements, I tried their sample packet of the different individual servings of meal replacements and they are pretty good!   Just ordered my 3-month supply so that I have them on-hand for post-op and tasted the vitamins.   They are really good!    Here is the site:    http://www.bariatricfusion.com/

Oct 13th WLS friends . . . . save a seat for me!   AND my new friends joining on October 26th!  

Awe, sorry to hear that your surgery got moved. Did they say why? I would have been devistated as I have been working myself up all month.

I'm so glad that you managed to have a good attitude about it. Way to go!

I'll see you on the other side! Take care.

My surgery date is Oct 26th as well, having the DS in Nashville, TN....am beyond excited and nervous and ready to get going!

I used to live near Fairbanks in Ft Greely, AK...would love to be back there!

i am the 26th to ready to get started. we will do find good luck to you all and a speedy recovery.  

I am also OCt. 26th.  I am currently going through the 14 day diet.  I am so excited and am counting down the days.  Only 11 more days in counting. 

I am currently keeping busy with trying to tie up lose ends at work and make sure everything is done that is needed to done while I am out on leave.  It makes the time go by faster. 

can you believe that we will soon be our new selves.  Healthier and Happier.

Good luck with your surgery, I am having mine done on 10/26 too. I'm excited but starting to feel a little squirrely as the date approaches.

Oh, me too!!   Tomorrow I will have my second quilt finished!!   I have been trying to keep myself busy so I don't have time to focus on it at all.  I don't know about you, but I am really having a hard time staying within the "30g of Carbs" per DAY per my surgeon's request.   I have been on about a 165g of Carbs per day & doing really well . . . . except for the days I totally blow it.  

I am assuming on Friday, Oct 23rd at the Pre-op appt & am sure they are going to put me on strick liquid diet for the last 3-days. 

Best of Luck!!   Keep us posted on how you are doing.

I am impressed, I didn't know people did much quilting anymore. When I was little I always liked the quilts my aunts and grandma made so much more that store bought.

I am pretty lucky on the strict liquids before surgery, I only have to do the strict liquids the day before surgery. Let me know how everything goes for you too.
