Let me know if there are any mistakes! 

CKatGo 11/23: Hi Everyone, I am so glad to see so many having surgery in Nov. We are going to start 2010 looking and feeling better. I have been trying to get stuff done around my house and make some lists of what I need to do. I start my liquid protein diet on 11/9, and see the docs, nutritionist and have preop tests on 11/10. I haven't changed my diet at this point but am exercising everyday so that is a big for me. I have gone to a few of my favorite restaurants that I won't be visiting for a while too. what are you all doing to get ready?

Hi CKatGo-

Yup, we are sure going to start 2010 with a healthier lifestyle!  Exercising is key--glad to see you've already started!  I haven't been to any of my favorite restaurants as of yet--I'm still trying to lose more weight on a low carb diet before surgery but I might splurge a couple of days before and have a bite of a bagel with cc--I'm a huge carb freak so it will be a huge farewell to those types of foods!

Take care and best wishes,
Kelli

Me too, me too!  I'm on Nov. 6.  Super excited.  I start a liquid diet 2 days before surgery.  I see my PCP tommorow and my surgeon the day before surgery for pre-op.  I still have no  vitamins or protein powder but I did buy new slippers for the hospital and lounging after surgery.  (Obviously my priorities are in order...)  Good luck to all of us!  Allison
