Hey Sleevers!

I am getting cold feet. On my 2 week liquid diet and I have cheated but not letting that bring me down! I literally can not believe I will be getting sleeved in 10 days. I don't know where to start, I am so ready but nervous of the new life to come. I am taking 4 weeks off from work, because my surgeon suggested it was enough to prepare me for my new life. I suffer from sleep Apnea and the worst one of all Hidradenitis Suppurativa after gaining 70lbs so quickly my thighs develop boils on a weekly basis.. I hate them. They ruin my life and people think its easy to work out..but not when you have this embarrassing disease. Well here I am guys and my faith is in God! Tell me why are you doing it? What are some of you NON scale VICTORIES?

Well it's official .....my surgery is June 5.....had some problems today as I saw the surgeon - apparently his staff screwed up- they told me not to schedule my surgery til I saw him today and I ended up wasting two weeks...so now I'm scrambling to do the upper GI, chest X-ray and see a cardiologist....the next several weeks are gonna be spent running from doctor to doctor...needless to say I'm excited, nervous and frustrated! He told me only to try to loose 10lbs and stop taking aspirin and aspirin products a week before the surgery....no restrictions on a pre op diet! Just nothing after midnight the day before my surgery!! But all in all I'm ready!! Go ME!!

Hey Jen,

My surgery is in 10 days also! I was on the liquid diet, but my body wasn't reacting well. So my surgeon told me to get off it, and to restart it two days before the big day.
