Who shares my date?

Finalized my date- NOVEMBER 7th! That's just a little under two weeks. WOW, after 2 years it's finally happening. I am still scared, but extremely excited. I do want to Thank GOD first because without him I would not have made it even this far. AMEN! Oh, I also have to be on a liquid diet until the big date. I can only have one meal a day and it must consist of protein- there goes my food funeral. Jodie

Congratulations to you!!! :thunbsup: for getting a date... but yuck on the liquid diet... I only have to do that the day before with my bowel prep... so many foods, so little time...LOL. Take care, Jacki K from PA

I share you date Jodie. I am having my surgery on 11/7 too and I am just as excited as you are. I am not nervous at all. Much peace here. I am craving all my favorite foods and it's a good thing i'm broke or else i'd be eating out everynight. lol I'm ready to change my life and become healthy again though. And most importantly to be free of diabetes. Sherita in VA

My date is November 7, also !! Very excited !!Yes, all thanks be to God......I dont have to do clear liquids until day before.

Congrats!! my date is also Nov. 7, thanks for reminding me of the time left..lol!! It is definately a beautiful thing!@! I also do not have to do anything until the day before!! lucky!!! good luck to all!!! Anne

WOW. I have to do a clear liquid until the DAY OF! He wants to make sure my liver shrinks. I couldn't ever get anything to shrink before that's why I am doing this. Go figure. BTW- liquid protein shakes (the 3 that I have tried) are so GROSS! I am still looking for one that works for me.

Congrats!!!!!! I am also doing a liquid diet before my surgery. So far I have lost a couple of pounds. My surgeons required me to lose 10 pounds but it felt so good I am going to continue on with this diet. I feel the liquid diet better prepares us for after the surgery anyway. But I congradulate you on your choice to live a healthier life!!!! Way to go!!!

I share your date as well.......I'm getting so excited, anxious, nervous, worried, happy, sad and every other emotion in the book. My clear liquid diet starts Saturday, Nov. 5th (the day after my b-day), thank god it's only two days. Well good luck to all and I'll see you on the losers side. Pat 302.1/150
