Things just got real. The hospital called, I’m scheduled for 9:30am Monday morning. I’m the 3rd procedure that day. Check into hospital Sunday night. My nerves just kicked in, so far I’ve been able to not really think too much about it. I know I won’t regret it, just ready to get onto recovering and starting this new chapter. Thank you for all the insight everyone is posting with their experiences. I think in the end that will help prepare me the most for what to expect. We’ve got this thing!! See you on the losers bench Monday!! Any items anyone wished they had with them in the hospital but didn’t?

April 8th for me. Excited & anxious. I see so many on liquid diet 2 weeks before, but I’m only required 2 days before. Wonder if I should start a few days before that? Tomorrow is my birthday, and I’m giving myself the tools to acquire good health this year. Cheers to the best year to come! I’ll be cheering all you losers on!! ?

Mine is April 8th as well!

April 8th gastric sleeve. Starting my 1200 calorie limit diet for next 2 weeks. Liquid diet 2 days before. Nervous & excited! CW 225 GW 150 5’ 6”

Mine is also for 2 days prior to surgery, 1200 calorie restriction 2 weeks prior. 6 weeks presurgery sounds awful, considering you’ll be a couple more weeks post surgery. Hang in there, you got this!
