Thanks for sending this out. I am having so much trouble getting my protien in...I will try it!!

I am back full force. I am able to have my surgery next week!!! YAYAY!! The class that is due before surgery, well they my doctor is allowing me to take it one week after my surgery. I was so upset when they told me it was a possiblity that I woul have to reschedule. I prayed about it over this past weekend and made up my mind that if it was meant then it will be. Anyway, how are you all that are being sleeved next week? How are you feeling? Is reality sinking in? Any doubts before next week? How are your pre op diets, has any of you slipped up? ARE U READY FOR THIS NEW CHANGE THAT IS ABOUT TO TAKE PLACE??? Please weigh in and share your thoughts and emotions...

Welcome to your new forum family. I am being sleeved on Monday. I have read several different time frames. If you go under the pre-op heading on this sight and go thru the topics, you will find a topic on how long different people took off work. My doctor gave me a month off. I doubt if I use all of that time, but it was good to have it on hand!

You got my prayers coming your way!!! Keep us posted

Well forum family, I woke up this am and checked my voicemail. The NUT from my office called and said that I did not take the 2nd Nutrition class and my surgery may have to get postponed. I totally forgot all about the class with working and dealing with my ill grandmother. I have already started my liver shrink diet and have already taken off work. The thing about work is that our schedule comes out every six weeks. So if I have to wait until then to put more days in, I will have to wait until early June...OMG!!! The diet alone has been a struggle. I have seen as of today how much food affects me. During this process, I did not know how bad it was until starting this process. Anyway, keep me in your thoughts. I will not know anything until Monday. So upset right now!!

Wishing you well! Keep us posted
