Pre-Op Appointment This Thursday

Hello! I've been pretty much MIA just doing my nutritionist monthly and getting my ducks in a row to send in my paperwork for insurance approval. Great News! I got my approval letter last week, and I have my pre-op appointment this Thursday with Dr. Weatherille (I hope I spelled that right) at Park Nicolett. I'm super excited, I know this will be a great positive change in my life. I know I'll be nervous going into so I'm sure you'll be seeing a lot more of me around here.

I'll know this Thrusday what my actual surgery date will be, and next week I have my dietician appointment for what I have to do pre-op with liquids.

Yay! Hope to get to know some of  you.

Melissa - how exciting!  I am on 3/26 with Dr. Jones, so I started the liquid diet yesterday.  5-6 liquid drinks a day (slim fast, carnation instant bfast w/milk, etc) and all the broth, sf jello, crystal lite, etc. you can handle.  I just keep drinking bullion when I get hungry - it really helps. 

I also bought some Unjury powder (chicken is pretty good) and some
Click (haven't tried it yet) to get a little more protein in.

Let us all know when you have a date!

Good luck tomorrow!  Keep us "posted" on how it goes!
