I can't believe I'm 3 days away from a new life. I feel like its been forever since I started thus process....about this time last year I decided to do it and now March 6 is creeping up sooooo much faster than I could have imagined!!!! I'm nit scared or nervous...I'm afraid I'm going to start freaking out Tuesday night and I'm going to have no one to freak out to because I can't talk to my parents because they're already nervous so i think they're finding comfort in that I'm not nervous but rather excited! Ugh!!! 3 days please pass fast!!

Where are you getting sleeved? I'm march 6 too!

Any suggestions on the pre-op diet? I start mine tomorrow and my surgery is the 18th. I'm more worried about that than the surgery. I still have to cook for my family and I don't want to be tempted to eat.

Birdie,

My surgery is on the 19th, I start my diet on Tuesday. I have the fear that I won't be able to stick to the shakes only, since I also have to cook.

I got nervous kissing my babes goodbye, but I am one right now. I will get nervous right as they are getting ready to give me an iv, at least that is how it happened with my 2 c sections :)

I'm starting my two-week pre-op tomorrow. Hopefully I can stick with it and lose 10-15 lbs along the way.

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

        Have a great Wednesday too! Sorry you're hungry all the time, I'm pretty much the same..and I'm sick of eating the same food all the time.

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
