Nov 5 with Dr. Lopez in TJ. I'm having protein shakes for breakfast and lunch, a nice salad with chicken for dinner, and a yogurt for dessert. I'm allowed to have a shake in the evening as well so I substitute a yogurt since it's got the protein and same number of carbs. I am already losing weight.

November 5th sleever here too! I've been having dreams about the surgery the past two nights, I'm getting so nervous!!!!!

Nov. 5th here too. I'm a little nervous just because of the fear of the unknown I suppose. I mean, you can read all about it and talk to people who've had it done but you really don't know just how it's going to affect YOU until it's been done. Mostly though I'm just excited and ready to get it over with so the healing can begin and I can start dropping this weight and actually participate in life again. I've wasted too many years being unhealthy and consequently have missed out on a lot of things in life but NO MORE!

Nov 7th here... I am not too nervous yet but I will be a wreck on Tuesday.I am enjoying a glass of great value sugar free grape drink and reading VST lol.

November 5th here! Nervous yes, scared a little. Excited at times, I have never been a skinny person, I am very nervous about that. I have a 17th month old boy named Max, and some guilt is creeping in as I hope everything goes well for both our benefits. Good Luck to all the 5ths, may the Baby Jesus be holding everyone's hand.

November 5th here. Feeling excited and a little nervous. Pre op diet went great lost 16#. Can't wait to be on the other side

Getting VERY nervous! I am also excited! I have 3 small children so hoping everything goes smoothly for them while mamas away;(

Am I the only one internally freaking out a bit?

Definitely freaking out a bit. I think that's natural when surgery is so close. Actually, I think my body may have been freaking for a couple weeks. Only way I can explain why the pre op diet was so easy.

I am also being sleeved on Nov 5th in TJ by Dr.Lopez. Soo excited and scared all at the same time!

Thoughts on having one last drinky tonight? Invited some friends over for some Bevi's. Is that so wrong?

Nov. 5th here too on long island. Im super nervous more for the fact my doctor needs my primary drs medical clearance still, today is the deadline, hoping they dont drop the ball otherwise i cant go on monday :( everything got pushed back on me bc of the hurricane. Its gonna be hard bc we still have no power, and prob wont still when i come home from the hospital.. Looking forward to being in the hospital just bc there is power..get some tv, charge my electronics, and not so cold lol. But really really nervous in general as well, and excited and cant wait to be out of the woods and on my way to healing and losing!! :) good luck to you all!!

Liquid diet starts tomorrow. Getting nervous but more excited to start this new journey!! Wish all of you the best on Monday.

I started liquid diet + laxative today. Amazingly, it hasn't been bad so far. I'm on my second cup of broth - I had chicken this morning and beef right now. I hope I feel this good right until surgery. I'm down about 7 pounds since Monday.
