February Sleevers

I'm set up for February 4th. Seems like forever away. People keep telling me, "oh don't worry". It bugs me cause I'm not worried. What seems to keep popping in my head is, am I doing the right thing.

I would like to here what others are thinking, going through.

My Doctors plan is two days preop clear liquid, not 10 like I've been reading on here. Anyone else similar?

Thanks,

Kimo

    I don't have to do a bowel prep, although I think that I should. This pre op diet has really constipated me :wacko:

    Best wishes to all of you Valentine sleevers!!!!!!

    I was sleeved yesterday and I'm feeling great. Just had a couple of small bites of jello and that's all I could do. It got a little painful so I stopped. I haven't had any gas pains either. I guess that might start latter I don't know.

    Lth11, I hope you're feeling better soon. That sounds awfully rough. Were they concerned about the blood?

    Is everyone avoiding candy and chocolates today? My husband didn't get me anything for valentines day, so I guess I don't have to worry.... *sigh*
