Yeah we are all in this together I say we keep up with each other I am nervous but I just want to do well and be able to recover good from surgery anything they want from me I surrender LOL including my craving for a pickle and tuna sandwich LOL nice liquid decaf tea with mint is helping me get through this and with of course the grace of g-d

I have a 25lb weight loss requirment before my surgery. I am very scared, more about the post surgery stuff, but the surgery itself scares me too. lets keep in touch.

It's a hot one in Northern California today, thankfully it's never muggy hot. I did a bunch of laundry today, when folding I realized just how big my shirts are! Looking forward to different clothes, need a style update anyhow.
My Dr said no more carbonated beverages, they are really hard on the stomach. I did read that flat clear sodas are o.k. after surgery. My pre op diet consists of regular healthy food but is restricted to 1,000 calories. I will know more specifics on Wednesday when I see the nurse and the Dr.
I'm scared, nervous, excited but above all grateful. I feel fortunate to be able to get the sleeve done. I have no idea what the future holds, I've been fat my entire adult life. There will be so many things I will be able to do, this thought keeps me going through the tuff times.
Take care,
Rachel

sounds good to me!
