Welcome, 5! So glad you are here! How is the pre-op diet going? All liquids, or does your doc allow some food? You hanging in there? I've heard day 3 is the worst.

I'm on day 8 of my pre-op diet now. It's a combination of medi-fast and liquids. I'm hanging in there, but I've had some VERY difficult days. I'm losing weight which helps make this easier to deal with, but the surgery can't come fast enough.

Looks like you are about two weeks behind me! Good luck on your surgery!!!

3 more days for u!! :0) good luck n keep us posted please. :0)

I wasn't nervous at all until I tried to go to sleep last night. That's when it hit me. I'm all set and ready to go now. Just waiting for 7:15 to roll around so I can hit the road! I'll still be early, but I'm excited!!! I'll post as soon as I can afterwards! Thanks for the well wishes!

I'm back home from being sleeved yesterday. As expected, they fixed the hernia I had. I'm still pretty sore and very sluggish. Having trouble getting my liquids down today as I'm experiencing the slime! No fun. Will try to figure it out tomorrow.

Good luck to those coming up behind me in the process.

Congrats. Take it easy :0))

How are you doing today, 5? Better luck with liquids??
