OMG Can't wait until my RNY on 12/21

I am so excited about my surgery. I've been turnedd down once but got excepted by my insurance this time. My date is 12/21 and I start my pre-op diet tomorrow (12/07). I get to drink clear liquids and 5 protein shakes a dayor 4 shakes and 1 small meal. I am just going to go with the 5 shakes.  I am sooooooo excited.

I am on the same schedule as you. I am very excited too... I can hardly wait.  I've been bouncing off the walls with anticipation.  Good Luck!!

Yay for us!!!! Well here goes nothing.  I hope the shakes don't taste bad but even if they do it will be totally worth it.

Hey there!  I started my liquids today too.  I can just have 2 shakes and a small meal (lean cuisine) for this week and all shakes next week!  My surgery is on 12/21 too.  I hope that we can keep talking through this.   I am good for today.  I am going to have it one day at a time though.  Good luck with everything!

I decided yesterday to do the 4 shakes and 1 meal. I don't feel so bad as far as physical hunger anyway. I think its awesome that the 3 of us have the same date.

I am also scheduled for 12/21 ...I am anxious to follow your progress as well as my own! I have been on a protein/liquid diet for 11 days now and have gone through 3 Christmas parties without giving in to temptation...where was all this will power before!!!! Good Luck on Monday and look forward to reading your posts.

I know your pain very well at this time. I have went from 4 shakes and 1 meal to just 5 shakes on wednesday. I am begining to feel weak but I think I will be ok. And yes, it was a total food fest before school let out. I am in nursing school and one thing nurses are good at is feeding people!!!! But I resisted temptation and I feel all the better for it. No sweets for me this year and deep down I am ok with it. Besides, christmas isnt and shouldnt be about the food, its about people coming together.  Anyway good luck on your journey.
