Chicago-Kane Ctr. Getting Sleeved Tomorrow!

Getting my sleeve tomorrow 9/4! Really excited. I started getting cold feet this morning but then had my boyfriend take photos of me front, back, and sides, clothed, then in bra and panties. The "am I doing the right thing" question went away the SECOND I saw those pictures!

I had to drink a 10oz bottle of magnesium citrate this morning which kicked in about 20 minutes after I drank it. I'm now in the loo pretty much every 20 minutes. I had a SF Popsicle - had to run to toilet. Drank some G2 Gatorade - you guessed it. I'm hungry, but 100% certain my system will be cleared out for surgery tomorow. :)

Reading everyone else's stories and the lists of "things I won't miss" are also allaying any pre-op fears. This site has been such a huge motivation, help, and resource. Thanks everyone for the support! I'll keep you posted!

Good luck!
