Goodmorning ladies! We are officially here! I had two appointments yesterday with my surgeon whom I might add is flipping gorgeous! I also did my admission! So I ready have to be there at 0600 on Monday but I have to drop a HCG test off today are tomorrow so ladies all seems to be going smooth! The liquid diet was a challenge but we are almost there! We must post after surgery so we will all know that each other are ok!!!!! It has been a journey but 48 hours to our new sexy life!

Day 2 is almost over and I feel sick, dizzy I have been drinking a ton of water! Any suggestions?

I really hope so, not so bad today!

Brandy79 numbers! Congrats on your journey.....

Thanks Selbrady every bit of support helps today is not so bad! So excited for all of us on the 19th!

Do any of you guts have times to be there? Meet with my surgeon again in Friday! I think I will go to a WLS support group meeting tonight! Just to work out some of my butterflies!

Yes please help me out! I dieing over here! Not really just being dramatic but could really use some fresh ideas!

Appendix good one, I said partial hysterectomy, if I get pregnant I totally busted!

I'm starving! I like it's all in my mind and I just want my mouth to be moving! Brush my teeth like 5 times today just to take the sweetness of the toothpaste super greedy! I went and got sugar free gum and some of the cravings went away! Come on 19th come on!

Yo this liquid diet is for the birds!!! Yes that's who can survive on this crap! But I will push threw the rewards are greater in the end.

6 days and a wake-up our lives will change forever!!!!! Are you girls excited?

Vsg3805 I watch your YouTube videos and I love them, how are you and the lil' one? I get sleeved on the 19 of this month so nervous, just wanted to touch basis and say thank you for sharing your journey!

Daybyday I haven't told anyone about my upcoming surgery on the 19th except my husband and my best friend. But now I wishing I had never told her... She is always making comments about me going to be to fine to hang with her. Helk at 100 lbs overweight I'm still fine but you are still my friend! The real reason I let her in us because my husband was being deployed and u would need some assistance with my kids! We well see how this plays out????

A lot of people will try and discourage you, but you said it best you have three children to live for, and by having this surgery you are making the quality of life better for you and your children. Weight will kill you too, have you talked to your surgeon yet? Ask him who many patient he has lost to the surgery and also remember everyone is different what my be easy for you may be a struggle for others. Be strong a positive and do your research. I also have three children of my own and a handsome husband and I get sleeved on the 19th, I am doing this for my health and my family. Starting at 260 5'5 and with 3 comorbities so I need this. So regardless of what you decide you have a new BFF in me:)
