Surgery In 1Day 21 Hours!

I am getting sleeved Monday at 530! It is so surreal, and I am getting a little scared. I am in a Pre op diet...liquids, yogurt, cottage cheese, Popsicles and stuff. But I will admit I have not been faithful to it :(. In my manual it says if you dont follow it take two bottles of mag citrate. And it says if you do follow it take one? I am def sticking to it tomorrow the day before surgery, and I will probably stay on the toilet all day O.o. I am hoping I won't have a lot of pain or stay knocked out the whole time. I guess I haven't really prepared myself for this moment. I have prepared for the post op diet and I know what I have to do, I have prepared for the emotional toll I will have when my body is changing, but I haven't really prepared for this one moment. I have never has surgery, so I don't know what to expect. :S

Good luck to you!!!!

You sound exactly like me. My surgery is 5:45 Monday and I didnt really stick to my pre-op either but plan to do all liquids today and tomorrow too. But I still have lost 8 lbs so far because it was still a far cry from what I normally ate lol.

So whatever you feel Monday, know that there is someone else going through the exact same thing you are at the same time. I will think the same and maybe it will help make it better. :)

Good luck to you, PeaceLove&Tash!! Please let us know how everything goes!

I'm new to the site and just submitted everything to my insurance company. How long did it take to get your approval from insurance?? Thanks!
