My surgery is November 20th and I can't wait! I feel like my life is on hold until then. I have a wonderful husband and a great life but I hate the way that I look and I'll let it limit me so much. I want to start letting myself fully enjoy life, and be happy with myself. I of course have my fears......complications.....regain....failure...will it work for me? But I have never doubted this is what I need to do since I made the decision to have surgery. I'm 3 weeks I will be starting my 1 week liquid preop diet! I wouldn't mind skipping that part! Lol..but it will all be worth it.

My surgery date is November 20 too. I start my pre-op diet on November 6...I have 2 weeks of the diet. I am a single mother of a 12 year old. I am very excited for this life changing event. I can't wait to go on bike rides with my son. Do you have to have the upper GI and EGD? When is yours scheduled? I'm having mine on October 30 and my nutrition/case management classes on Nov 5...30 day countdown to surgery!!!

Yay! Sleeve sisters! I did have an upper GI already, and I had to attend a nutrition class and support group session. I also had to have a pysch eval. I don't have to have an EGD so I have met all my requirements. I have my preop appointment Nov 5th and then I am ready to go! The count down is on! So 2 weeks of liquid diet preop? I think that is going to b the hardest part for me.
