Need a partner for July 13?

I am having surgery on July 13 and was looking for anyone with the same date. I nervous as the date draws near but I know this is a healthy decision for me. For all of you July losers, I will keep you in my prayers as we go on this ride to healthy living. CONGRATULATIONS!

Hi hon mine is the day after yours on the 14th at 7:30 in the morning. I know this is the right decision too I just got my date Friday along with my approval on Thursday so everything is going a little fast for me so that kind of makes it a little more nerve racking.

Hi Dee My surgery is the 13th in Curitiba, Brazil. This is the best decision I have ever made...and I'm going to wear my scar proudly, it will be my Life Scar!! Everything will be just fine. Remember, this is a life change and WLS is a tool. Good luck! Nancy

Hey Nancy, I will keep you in my prayers as we both venture on the losing side together. My surgery is not until 1:00 pm California time. Therefore, you will be out way before me.

My surgery date is also the 13th. I'll have it near home, in Little Rock, Arkansas. Good luck all!

Hey Lisa, The date is approaching fast. Are you required to do a liquid diet just prior? I have to do a 2 week pre-op liquid diet that starts this Thursday. This will be hard but I will survive. Well keep in touch as we both venture on the losing side together JULY 13TH!

I do have to do the dreaded liquid diet too, starting this Friday. Have to shrink that liver. Do you know what product you're going to use?

I ordered protein samples from unjury.com and they will be here on Thursday. Unfortunately I am not only a picky eater (i became fat on breads, pasta, CARBS) lol, but I am also very picky about what I drink. So far I have not been able to stomach the Designer Protein Whey in Strawberry and Vanilla and also the Bioplex Pure Whey that I purchased at GNC. All are NASTY I am hoping that I will be able to tolerate something from the samples that I ordered. A suggestion was made for me to try Isopure and also Whey Gourmet protein drink that you can purchase from http://www.a1nutritionproducts.com/buy/PVL/whey_gourmet?utm_id=1&utm_term=Whey+Gourmet Let me know if it works, I will keep you posted.

Hi, I was given chocolate, vanilla and strawberry Unjury by a friend and I have to say that I'm really liking vanilla mixed with sugar-free Carnation breakfast drink. The strawberry is kinda gaggy, but I'm going to try mixing it in some jello. Chocolate is great - I don't even taste that chemically medical taste some powders have. Amy S

Hi, My date is the 13th also. I'm so ready for this change in my life! I teach school and the day after school got out (June 13th) I started my "getting ready for surgery" campagn. I'm walking 2 miles a day - sometimes it takes me a few outings to get that far ;) I've also started a self-imposed "liquid" diet. Breakfast and lunch are liquid then supper is something light and low-fat. My doctor only requires a week of liquid diet, but I'm nervous about getting through surgery so I started sooner. Good luck!
