Time will not pass soon enough!

Hi! My surgery date is November 29th and time is standing still. I am trying to keep myself healthy so that nothing will interfere with my date. Has anyone had to follow a certain diet before surgery? Praying for each of you as your dates approach! Patty

Hello. I know what you mean. Mine is 10 days before yours. I'm trying to stay busy at work and with all my pre-op appts. The sleep study went well Friday night and thankfully I don't have sleep apnea. I think it depends on the doctor and the surgery about the diet. I'm having lap so my doc put me on a modified Atkins to shrink my liver four weeks ago. Next week I'll be on liquids only for the 2 wks before and 1 wk after. Best of luck!

No special diet for me. I have my surgery on November 10th, and am getting anxious to just get it done! Good luck to you both! Jim

Good luck to you Jim! I'm scheduled for Roux EnY on November 10 also in Ft. Worth. Talk to you later. Good luck to everyone else that is looking forward to this life changing event too. xoxo Alice

Hi Alice! Thanks for the well wishes, and good luck to you too! I will be posting as soon as I get out of the hospital, and look forward to hearing from you too! Jim

Congrats! My surgery is also on November 29th...I am excited! That gives me the time to finish all my Christmas shopping, clean and decorate my house, eat my Thanksgiving dinner, clean out my system, and get everything ready for me to heal, and get better once I come home. My husband will take the week off to help and take care of our 4 daughters. I am a planner so I need these next weeks to make sure everything is in place. Good luck with all you do, and email me if you need anything or want just to talk. I am going through exaclty what you are!
