Pre-Op Requirements

Before I can go “under the knife” on September 19, the following things have to be completed:

Lab Blood Work – check
EGD and Colonoscopy – check
Dietary Evaluation – waiting to schedule
Pre-Op Class – scheduled for September 9
Full Liquid Diet – September 4 – 10
Clear Liquid Diet – September 11-18

That’s it!  The hardest part will be the two weeks of the full and clear liquid diets, but having seen Sharon do the exact same thing three years ago, I know I can do it.  I’m expected to drop about 20 pounds or more during those two weeks, and I can’t wait to see how it feels to get even that little bit of weight off.
