The First Day of the Rest of my Life - New York, NY

You must be so excited.....good luck and can't wait to hear....

Thank you so much Isabella. Those are all great things to know. I do have a recliner and already have the toddler dishes in the house. I don't have the shower head but that may have to be an investment we make. My dr said I can drink the shakes but don't have to so I was thinking of just picking up a couple ready made til I find what taste good to me. Did you have to give yourself injections after the surgery for blood clots? I am going to have to for 10 days. Thank you so much for the info. I really appreciate it.

Congratulations Isabella. You've done awesome. My surgery is in 2 weeks and I can only hope to do as well. Thank you for sharing.

1 month til surgery....I finally gave up soda. I went cold turkey about 4 days ago and have actually lost a few pounds just from stopping that. I still want diet soda....badly but I'm doing fine without it. Tomorrow is my nutrition class and last of my 6 months weigh ins.

I'm so excited for you Lisa. My surgery is scheduled for May 9th so I totally understand how your feeling....In the seminar I went to they said you could have a cup of coffee in the morning but not sure about more than that. I don't drink coffee so that isn't my issue...I drink diet soda and I'm having a hard time giving up the one I have during the afternoon.....I had no problem giving up drinking in first thing in the morning and at night but lunch and when we go out is much more difficult. Best of luck and keep us posted. I'll be anxious to hear how your doing.
