my advice is start drinking those protein shakes and liking them... ugh worst problem I've had so far...by the way, I had ZERO pain and never used so much as a tylenol from the time I got out of surgery :) Good luck

Congratulations. Everybody's story is different, but usually the common theme is that it has been a long road to this point for you. It's a lot like seeing the finish line and now it's real. Mine is on 02/03/2015. It's all done but the waiting for me. My advice would be make sure you have everything crossed off your check list (make sure your leave is approved if you need it, make sure somebody can watch the pets or the kids or both if that needs to be done, make sure the laundry is done and the shopping). The one mistake I've made is I've got two more days to surgery day, I'm on a low cal blended diet, and I've got nothing but time on my hands so its making me a little NUTS. So stay busy the last couple of days, plan on going to the movies, out with friends, window shop at those clothes you'll be able to buy soon. I'd follow my own advice but I'm stuck in a freaking snow storm. :) Good luck and best wishes!

Good luck dougprime. I hope everything goes well for you. I have four days off between the end of my final exams and surgery date. There is nothing I can do about it, and I am already imagining that I will be going crazy! I start my pre-op diet in 31 days. My biggest challenge right now is avoiding last meal syndrome. You're so close now, you will make it!
