Good luck on friday!  You must be so excited and nervous at the same time!  Keep us posted on how you are doing.  I start my liquid diet on Tuesday...which means I am 2 weeks out...woooo, hoooo!

My surgery is 7 days away.....hard to believe I am saying that because this journey has took some time and patience. God bless all of the November surgery pals and you are all in my thoughts and prayers.

Whoo Hoo!!!   I'm getting banded on the 19th. :)   I've been doing the liquid diet since Oct 30. Right now I can have a salad and some chicken. On the 17th, it's full on clear liquids. Fun times. :)

Hi Jeanette- How exciting, this FRIDAY!  What are you having for your LD ?  Did you lose the 7.5lbs since starting ?   Have you been to any of the coffee groups? B'ville wouldn't be too far from you.

Thanks everyone!!

Time is definitely flying by. Mostly because I am kind of stressed about getting everything done before I leave work on Thursday. Even more stressful that they will be shutting our current email server down while I am out and converting to a new one but they won't give me the directions on how to convert until THURSDAY! And I even told them I will be gone!!! But I guess staying busy will keep my mind off my surgery.

I think I have "turned the corner" on the liquid diet. My cravings are not as bad anyway. I would love some salad and chicken, though. For my LD I get to have Carnation Instant Breakfast, Ensure, Slim-Fast and things like that. Thursday is clear liquids only, which ought to be interesting, to say the least. Then NOTHING after midnight, even though my surgery isn't until 2 on Friday. I am going to be sooooo thirsty!

I have been thinking about going to one of the Coffees, Burnsville definitely would be a good option since most of the others seem to be a bit far away for me, especially that early in the morning!!

Thanks again to everybody and good luck to you all too!!!
