It's official. I'll be joining the land of the sleeved a week from tomorrow. Squeeeee!

You should be very excited! :-) immediately after surgery is the worst, obviously. But you should get up and walk as soon as you can because that helps a lot. You shouldn't need anyone to stay with you unless you have a really low bed. No special equipment just plenty of water and rest. I'll make sure to pray for you!

Thank you. Will appreciate your prayers.

Melissa do you have a time already that your scheduled for. I don't get mine until Monday they call the day before with the time

I have to be there at 6am. They gave me the time a month ago when they gave me the date.

I'm pretty excited really..I've had 2 other surgeries in the past so I'm not nervous at all..Good luck with yours <img src='http://www.bariatricpal.com/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='' />

I am getting excited! I cheated last night. I had some popcorn. It totally made me sick. I have to be at the hospital at 9am.

You cheated with popcorn are you on a special diet. My doc doesn't require a special diet until the afternoon the day before

They say no food 5days prior to surgery! All liquids.

It's so hard to stick to the pre op diet! I managed 9 days so far with my full liquid diet. Been real tempted to cheat but didn't! I have to be there by 6am.
