I have 3 more before my surgery and I'm so anxious and nervous. I start my 2 day pre op diet tomorrow. Am I going crazy because this surgery been on my mind everyday all day. I've been on YouTube watch videos of sleeve patients like everyday. I'm just so excited:)

I meet with the surgeon again today, pre-op tomorrow, then Wednesday; THE BIG DAY!! I'm so excited, nervous, happy, scared....all rolled up in one. Prayers needed for healing and calming are appreciated!

Getting ready for pre op testing today....

Doing my pre-op testing right now at the hospital, and so far already registered for my surgery so don't have to fill anything out that day, blood work and labs done, waiting on respiratory and mri tests, ekg, and endoscopy then can go home to start my liquid diet! Very anxious and my stomach is upset from stress but at least I'll be done with my pre-op stuff and after my 2 week liquid diet, it'll be surgery day!

I know, it's so very real right now. I'm doing everything I need to for my sleeve. My stomach is a need, but I'm actually feeling calmer than I have in a few days. Everyone here at the hospital had been friendly and super sweet and encouraging, so that helps. Good luck Dee! Keep us posted, and I'll do the same! :)

start tomorrow On the 6 smh lol I didn't it with the Lap Band I can do it now

I get sleeved on the 14th. My biggest fear is the mental desire to eat things just bc I recall how good they taste. Have your desire or cravings for food vanished?

I have the Hosp preop today including the class, praying it all goes well.

Congrats on doing so well :)

I will tell you the head hunger never goes away. I just keep reminding myself that I did this for a reason and that the head hunger will only be temporary! It will get better! The shakes are the worst part but small sacrifices for large gains remember!
