My Surgery is scheduled - Oct. 17th

I finally got my surgery date, Monday, Oct. 17th.  Are there others with the same date?  I am very excited but very nervous.  So for the next 3 weeks, what should I be doing to prepare for the big day?  What should I buy now to have at home after surgery?  What has been the most helpful for all of you. 

Do you have a pre-op diet? I so follow that.  Start an exercise program that you will enjoy.  Get all of the foods you can't eat out of the house.  Sock up on proteins shakes and powder and vitamins and supplements you will need after surgery.  Enjoy yourself and relax because you have made a great choice!

Yes, thank you very much.  I will try to relax.

My date is October 19th. I am enjoying reading the replies to our post.

Good for you!  My surgery date originally was Oct 17th but I had to delay for work related reasons.  Best of luck!!
 

I am scheduled for Oct. 17th as well.
