When's your date??? Mines is JUne 11th......9 days before my birthday!!!

Congrats Crichard!!

Mina, how are you feeling/doing today? Are things finally clearing up, getting better? Continuing prayers.

I'm June 25, too.

I am also June 19. However I am up here in PA. I have a daughter who's almost 4' date=' and rather smart for her age, and I've told her that I'm having surgery to help me make my belly smaller and give me more energy so I can play with her more and do more things with her. She gets upset that I'm going to be away for a few days but when I remind her she is going to be with her grandparents, she is fine. I answer her questions as they come up. She did want to know if I'd be smaller as soon as I came home. I had to explain that it would take time.[/quote']

I'm scheduled for the 19th too!

Thanks, I was a nervous wreck! No, I wasn't driving!!! Sn: That scares me, but lots of vloggers tend to record while they are driving. That's a bit much for me.

I recorded it in the car for two reasons. First, I kept being a chicken about making the video. I pulled into my driveway & said it's now or never...so, I just did it. Secondly, the lighting is much better!!! (Plus, it was easier b/c my tripod hasn't arrived yet.)

Doing much better today, I seemed to have turned a corner. Tomorrow will be two weeks out. I walked 3 separate times today each about 1/2 hour, visited my parents, they all ate Chili, I had 1/3 of a sugar free pudding and drank a bottle of water.

Came home and now I'm trying to get 6 ounces of Isopure Green Tea in. If I can do it, I will hit 22 Protein which is up from yesterday. I will attempt protein shake again tomorrow, but if it gets rough I will have to call the nutritionist. No shake seems to sit well with me. I honestly think I could get more protein on mushy's that on the shakes.

ps i can get 64 ounces of liquids in with no problem.....I have gone through too many protein shakes that are not agreeing with me.

Glad u r feeling better today

Great Job, Little Bits!! I, too, thought that I wanted the lap band when I first started this process...didn't realize that the Sleeve was an option until I went to in informational meeting by my surgeon. So glad that I have the sleeve!

I look forward to following your videos. My surgery was on the 12th, so we'll just be a week apart.

Best wishes on your journey!

Nicely done, littlebits. I can't believe we're in the home stretch. 30 hours for me. I'm so nervous about the surgery. I can't eat and sleep has been little. Good luck to you.

I love that we have this June group so we can all check in with each other. We are all getting nervous & excited at the same time, and are curious or commiserating once the surgery is happening. Thanks, all. My surgery is in 1 week!
