My surgery is this Thursday, (July 2). I've got PJ shorts that have a drawstring that I'm planning on bringing to wear under my hospital gown. I plan on bringing a couple pair of undies, a book, chapstick, brush, hair tie, toothbrush, toothpaste, bipap machine, and a pillow. I'll wear home what I wear to the hospital. Stretchy yoga capris, loose top, and flip flops.

I'm getting sleeved on Thursday too!! Good luck to all of you!!

Good luck today!! Hope you have a speedy recovery!!

I had a 1200 calorie diet for 12 days, and now I'm on my two-day liquid diet. For my liquid diet - In addition to Protein shakes, I'm allowed SF pudding, lite yogurt, & unsweetened applesauce.

I'm on day 12! You can do it!!

Wow! I can't believe it! My surgery is in three days!! July 2 - my life will be changed for the better!! Am I ready? Yes!! Am I nervous - Not too! It did hit me last me night as I was in bed for the night, and I couldn't shut my thinking off! The surgery center won't call me until Wednesday night to let me know what time my surgery is. I'm hoping and praying that it will be first thing in Thursday morning!! Good luck to all of you being sleeved this week!!!

Wow!!! You look great!! I'll be joining everyone on the losers bench July 2nd!!

Had my pre-op physical today with my PCP. I'm all set for surgery next week! I can't believe it's a week from today!!

I've been scared to try Isopure because of all the reviews! I'll have to give it a try! Thanks!!

Good luck today!! Wishing all of you a speedy recovery! Nellie, let me know how it goes! My day is a week from tomorrow!!

How's everyone doing on their pre op diet that are going the beginning of July?

Good luck to all of you being sleeved this week!! I'll be a week behind you all on July 2!! I'm not nervous, not yet anyway... It may be a different story when I'm actually there getting prepped for surgery!! Wishing all of you a very speedy recovery, and let us know how your doing! ????

Yay!! I hope you get your approval really quick!! The wait made me crazy!! I wanted to call & bug my insurance company, but I held out. It was approved 15 days after they submitted it. Good luck!!! ????

Magnesium deficiency

I drank a lot of water to try and flush the caffeine from my system. It seemed to help!

Congrats!! It will be here before you know it!

Don't be nervous! Everybody's pre-op diet is different! Today is (day one) of my pre-op diet. 1200 calories a day for 12 days and a two day liquid diet. My NUT told me I can cheat one time, but I highly doubt I will. I'm going to stick to 1200 or under! Good luck!!

Today is day one of my pre-op diet! I can't complain! 1200 calories a day for 12 days and a two day liquid diet. Bring on July 2nd! I'm ready!

Good luck to all of you about to be sleeved, and those of you that have been, hoping for you a quick recovery! It's been a while since I posted on this thread. I was hoping to be a June sleever. Pre-op was last Monday and I've been scheduled for July 2. So I missed it by two days! Oh well! I'm starting my pre-op diet today, and in exactly two weeks - my life will be changed for the better! I'm so looking forward to it!

I've had several food funerals lately, and I was careful not to over-do it on calories, was pleasantly surprised at my pre-op appt. (Monday) that I lost six more lbs! I start my pre-op diet tomorrow. 1200 calories a day for 12 days and then a two day liquid diet. Having lunch at my favorite restaurant today, and will probably have a light dinner tonight! Bring on July 2!!

Of all days - in a hurry this morning. . . forgot my cell phone at home... I get home, notice I missed a call - voice mail from my surgeons office - they received verbal approval! Calling to schedule my pre-op tomorrrow! Let the fun begin!!! Yay!!!!

I'm right behind you (July 2)! I'm excited - not nervous yet!! Good luck to the both of you!!

@@Texas_Chick - July 2nd for me! Good luck with your surgery!

July 2 for me too!!

Yep! It's official! Make room for me other losers bench!! YAY!!
