Nov 26th date!

I'm totally new to the site.... its confusing but im tryin to figure it out. My surgery is about 7 days away.. i'm freaking a taddddddd bit :)

I'm right there with you! I am trying to keep myself REALLY busy!

Hang in there! My day is the 26th also. I just started freaking today.

Are either of you on a liquid diet? I start tomorrow.

I start my liquid diet on Saturday. Full clear liquids-no milk products, no red or purple liquids. I also do the yucky bowel prep at 6pm on Sunday and then no liquids after 2am. My surgery is scheduled for 2:00 Monday. I sure hate that late time. I will be a wreck waiting all day Monday and very hungry. Best wishes to all of the Monday People!

Add me to the 26th date. Been on liquids since the 12th - Have to do clear liquids starting Sunday. Mary

Good luck to this 26th club! I had RNY on 11/15 and am doing fine. I didn't get nervous until about two days before and then freaked out -- but then calmed down again. You will all do great! Congratulations on this important, life changing choice!

Hi Kelly.... My surgery was on Thursday, Nov 15 as well and I am healing well. The medical team at GWU were awesome and I would recommend my surgeon to everyone. (smile) I really can't believe how I am losing the weight and able to be strong. I thank God each morning that He has enabled me to go through another day of protein shakes, juice and water. (smile) I am not experiencing any of the side effects such as vomiting and full pouch. I am able to fill it with protein 4 oz x 4 each day plus my fluids. Congratulations, Kelly on taking the first of many steps to a new way of life for you and those all around you.

Kelly--Just saw this. My surgery was on 11/26 too! Hope that you are doing well post-op? Ellen
