How's everybody holding up?

Denise,

I am a December 15th surgery person too.  This date worked perfectly for me because I am also going to school and finish my classes on the 12th.  I started my preop liquid diet on the 5th.  Isn't it something how everyone's doctor has a different process?

Earlier today I was thinking, can I do this?  I keep thinking maybe I should re--think this!  Are you having any jitters like this?

Thanks,
Lisa

I'm just a few days out and I can't wait to start the new life. 

I hope your surgery goes well and you have an easy recovery.  Can't wait until we all check in and see how it went for everyone!

i started my two week preop diet a week before thanksgiving. day three was the day i thought OK, i can do this. then day 7 i had a slump where i was like oh my god..is this even worth it..now I'm post op and officially 19 days i have been on a liquid diet.. you can do this... if i can at least

Hi Lizzybreen,

Thanks so much for your post and words of encouragement.  I am 4 days away from surgery now and doing pretty well....I am down almost 21 lbs.  I know that i can make it now....:)  Having to do this for 21 days PRIOR to surgery is hard but I am in the home stretch.  I hope you are doing well and dropping the pounds?  Keep me posted on how you're coming along....

take care,
Rob
