So I went to see my doctor in new orleans yesterday.  He wants me to lose another 10 pounds before my surgery on the Febuary 23.  I am on strickly liquids only.  this is harder than I remember last time.  Why are doctors never happy with what we have done?  I would like you to say a prayer that I make it and that my surgery is not postponed again.  Kinda nervous right now really wish this was over with.  Thanks for all the support from this room ya'll are great. 

You survived what you thought would kill you. Now straighten your crown and go forward like the Queen you are!

 You can (and will) do this!  It isn't easy, but it is so worth it and you will be as healthy as can be for surgery.

One thing that helped me in the pre-op liquid diet was sf popsicles and sf jello.  They made me feel like I was eating something solid.  Keep as active as you can to distract yourself from food.

Good luck!

It was postponed because he did not have the tools he needed. I have lost about 15 pounds. It will be nice to talk to someone with the same doctor. What do you think of his assistant vanessa?
