Who else is going on the 25th... costco premier shakes and gummy vitamins???

[Guest guest]

So.....

I'm ging to be sleeved on the 25th (My date just changed). I'm

flying down from northern california, taking a few days off of

nursing school (I have my BSN in December) and going to change my

life forever. I'am more than just excited....I'm counting the days, I

can't wait!!! However, I do get a little nervous whenever I think

about the actual procedure itself. I never had a surgery! I've seen

lots of laproscopic procedures during school (gallbladders

etc)....there isn't all the blood and guts and cutting (just a

little..lol). I was wondering who else is having it done on the 25th?

You know, we're all lucky that we won't be involved with the candy on

Halloween, I always find that time to be difficult for me, cute kids

and candy always do me in

But anyways, my wonderful boyfrind will be joining me in Mexacali, I

was wondering, for those who bring partners with them, what is there

for your significant other to do? My man is a bio-chemical enginner

and I know that he is dying to visit the pharmacies (wants some weird

body building stuff?). But other than that, what can he do besides

sit by my bed side or study for the 3 days? Any suggestions? Does he

have to go out and find food? I'm sure he won't be into sharing

my " NPO status " or my " clear Liquid Only " protocol post-op

So let me know if any of you are going on the 25th. I know that Dr. A

is booked soild for the month of OCT. so I'm assuming that there are

at least 3 of you out there who are going on the same day as me.

Please contact me!!!! I want to know your names before I get there!

Also, the costco premier shakes are only in choclate...YUCK...I'm not

a choclate lover (or liker for that matter)...Can you get them in any

other flavor?

Also, the Gummy vitamins...No offense to them, they really are not

enough to meet your body requirements...they're for little kids.

Also, did you notice that they are missing quite a few things that

you need? (I was looking at them yesterday). I would suggest finding

a high quality liquid vitamin such as Trace Liquids Maxi Mulit by

Trace Minerals one oz capful daily (30mls)

http://www.bodybuilding.com/store/trace/maxi.html....I think it's

pretty good.

Plus you would want to take a chewable calcium supp.

Also, there are these B-12 losenges that " melt in your

mouth " ...yummy ....But they might really help those of you whom are

defecient.

Anyways...I hope all of you whom are awaiting a surgery and those of

you who have had it done are excited/happy....

Good Luck Helena on the 25th its going to be an awesome experience I

went in August of this year and am doing great. My husband went

with me and we had a great last meal together and went swimming in

the pools, during the surgery days he ate at the restaurant

downstairs in the hospital, and pretty much just hung out and took

care of me. He watched some tv and loved me, which was awesome. If

you have a laptop bring that for him that will give him something to

do too. I really like the slim fast ready made low card diet IT HAS

TO SAY THAT TOO OTHER WISE YOU GET THE ONE THAT SAYS HIGH PROTEIN

BUT ALSO HAS HIGH CARBS so it says " low carb diet " on it and they

have the main staples, chocolate, strawberry, and vanilla. I love

them. Also the

" emergen-C " packets that you mix with water has a multivitamin one

now so I drink that too. Enjoy your new beginnings.

Take care,
