Yes...good luck I have to be at the hospital at 7:30 as well. My prayers are with you for a speedy and easy recovery!

So waiting on hubby to come back from voting....then on my way. It hasn't hit me yet but I know once I get to the hospital it will.

Did you not have early voting? If not that's a bummer, I was able to vote absentee this year

I hope so, I know my hubby is sick and I refuse to sleep in the same bed as him my surgery is tomorrow and I don't want to be sick!

Jenn my Dr has given me my next 3 appointments including the week follow-up after surgery. Did your Dr office not do that?

That sounds awesome have you been able to get up and walk around

I'm right with you, I was more nervous last week that I am today. I am just ready to begin my journey! Good luck on your surgery tomorrow!

Wow 23lbs is awesome! Your doing the right thing try new foods you other wise wouldn't have tried. I want to use this sleeve to leave some foods behind forever, that is my goal at least.

Yes, this has definitely happened to me. I tried to have all of my favorite foods up until the night before my fast. I had actually put on 4lbs doing it!. But now I am on my last day of my 8 day fast and I have dropped 7lbs. Tomorrow is my day and I am so ready!

That is sweet, she has an awesome support system. Now that the surgery is over I know she will do well. praying for a speedy recovery

Good luck to all of those that's having surgery today! We wish you good health, guess what your starting your new journey!

Nov 6th, still nervous but so ready. I have all of my support system on stand by and ready. It was extra hard this weekend being on liquids with everyone here eating! But I survived it thank goodness, so ready for today to be over.

If your looking for a good protien you could do beans blended. Do you like beans?

I don't think I am , I am suppose to drink 5 Protein shakes and can't seem to find one I like enough to drink it. I do plan on posting from the hospital I am taking my laptop. For my Dr he normally has us do a two day stay in the hospital after surgery. So I will definitely keep you updated on my progress.

I'm HUNGRY! I will be so glad when the pre-op diet is over I won't know what to do. I will be happy when 11/6 gets here. I am a little anxious but definitley not going to change my mind I have come to far for that.

This is nice to hear...I am getting really nervous for my up coming surgery which is just this Tuesday. I am hoping I have the same experience as you do.

I like the Mio to I can't stand the crystal light

Congrats! I know your ready as well! Did you have to do two weeks?

You look awesome, congrats on your weight loss!

I only had to do a week of the pre-op liquid diet. I am down 4lbs already since Tuesday and really looking forward to 11/6. It took the first two days to really get into the swing of things and not think about how hungry I am constantly. Now it's no big deal, I know what's waiting for me at the end of the tunnel and I can't wait!

Hi my Nov people, I will be sleeved on 11/6 and I am on my liquid pre-op now. My insurance was pretty quick it took about a month from my first Dr visit to receive approval from the Ins and my surgery date. I am getting really nervous. @Tatylish I see your on the same day as me, please keep in touch and let me know how your doing. Liquid consist of: low sodium broth SFJello SF popsicle Muscle milk light protien shakes Water

What type of soups? Broth based or all kinds?

You get to have food? Wow I wish, I will be sleeved on 11/6 and I am on strict liquids for 7 days. Good luck with your surgery and I wish you the best.

This is geat advice since I will be sleeved 11/6. I will definitely have my heating pad there and waiting!

Well my surgery is coming really soon and I can tell you your not the only one having these feelings. But I know it will be worth it. It took me 3yrs to commit and to take the jump and now I am happy that I did. Thing have gone so smooth that I know this is for me
