13 Days to go
i everyone, I have 13 more days to go till i am
on the other side of the big hill. I went yesterday
for my pre-op physcial, and I go Monday of next week
for my pre-admission testing. I start the sugar free
Carnation Instant Breakfast diet tomorrow and I will be on
that until 2 days before surgery, then I will be on a
clear liquid diet the day before. My surgeon gave me my
scripes for my pain medication already and I have to get
that filled before I go in the hospital. Thank you to
all of you, the ones that have been thru the surgery
and those that are waiting and those that are just
starting out.<br><br>Donna<br>Pre-surgery 225lb<br>May

i,<br>It’s nice to have something in common. We
both have our surgery the same day. My pre-op appt.
is<br>May 6th. Can’t hardly wait to have the surgery done.
Would like to chat with you about this. I have a great
support system in place with family,<br>friends and co
workers….hope you have the same as it is a big help. This is
one of the groups that likes to write more than talk
in the chat rooms. Good luck and hope to talk to you
again before our surgeries.

i Donna,<br>My name is George and i am an new
member to the group and i just had surgery on the 23th
and i know how exciting and nervous you must be right
now. I wish you luck and a little bit of advice, if
you haven’t got it yet. Take a pillow with you to the
hospital, it will come in handy when you leave and are on
the freeway. Those bumps can hurt.<br>good

i all,<br><br>I am just starting out on this
venture but find it very exciting especially when I keep
reading all the results and the effect it has on your
outlook….sounds like it is all really worth it and I am anxious
to ‘get onto the other side’.<br>Bob I am in this
club often and you are right I guess everyone is on
their own agenda and we will have to just hope we get
in the chat at once…..Donna I’m new to the club
also and I am just starting out..Hope everyone that is
recuping is doing great..I’ll keep checking…love and
hugs Shirley<br><br>246….5′3"
