one month away....

now that its march...im getting anxious...my surgery is next month and i cant wait!!!! i have quit smoking and im searching for what to have as far as protein shakes and stuff. i cant wait for the day to come, i want it so bad i can taste it. tonight when i get home i am going to review my pre op liquid diet....god im so excited!!!

I know how you feel.  I am scheduled for surgery 2 days after you.  I still need to quit smoking.  I am leaving for Guatemala this week on a medical mission so plan on quiting then.  I have done so much research my head is spinning but at least I feel like I'm well informed.

It will be here before we know it.

Your month will fly by toooooo Shari.  Have the best possible time during your mission.  Doing for others is good for the soul.  You can do the quitting too.  Take care, hugs

This month will fly by for you Sunshine and I hope to see lots of posts,  excitement is catchy and weeeee all need some excitement from time to time.

Congrats on your date and for quitting smoking. I am sure that was not an easy thing to do but so much better for your health. I am 4-5 months out and having a hard time getting prepared and loosing some pre-op weight. Good luck with everything, I'm sure you'll do great!

Ohhh how I remember the excitement you are feeling. Your trip to guatamola is going to really help that time fly by in a blink.  Sooooooooo  happy for you!

Good luck to all of you preops out there.. you can do what has to be done.. just keep in mind what the prize will be in the end... LIFE...without all the boundries, roadblocks and health issues of obesity.. ahhhhhhh its wonderful!

I'm so happy for you that your wait is almost over.  I stocked up on a lot of stuff only to find that my tastes changed so much after surgery I couldn't stand the protein and broth that I bought!

I also had to quit smoking for the surgery and I'm glad I did.  Hang in there.  I'm 7 months smoke free and still can't get over how much better I feel.  You will be glad you quit.

Good luck!
