Tomorrow is the BIG day, wish me LUCK!!
Well, today is the last day of Opti. Can't say I will miss it. But, being on full fluids for 2 weeks, I might. Hard to say though. Wondering if anyone has any suggestions at to what I should be packing today to take to the hospital with me and also, for the 5 days or less in the motel afterwards? I am actually pretty calm right now, normally I would be freaking right about now, but I know this is something I have wanted to do for awhile now (over 6 years!). I am doing this for ME!! Wish me luck! Thanks for everyone's support and wisdom along this journey! I do plan on enjoying the ride (Ian!). I know it will be bumpy but well worth it in the end!
wonderful ! best of luck tomorrow. I also had Dr. Hagen and he is just wonderful!
I would take a good book or a tablet of some sort -
Take your vitamins (I take Centrum 50+ twice a day) - calcium ( Wellness) - Vit. B 12 sublingual - benefiber powder - a good protein powder - a small measuring cup -
Some Campbell light cream soups and a fine strainer - some yogurt you really like (try Greek - watch the sugar!)
Some crystal light food flavorings - and twin sugar.
Go for it!..... 
Judge your success by what you had to give up in order to get it.
I wish you a speedy and uneventful recovery.
People have already mentioned almost everything to bring. I might bring am MP3 player, a book or magazines, and maybe some crosswords for the hotel stay. You might get bored with TV.
