Lol I definitely feel out of sorts and just plain tired!! I fly out at 10:30 tomorrow morning Sinai suppose I should at least go pack my suitcase now lol

Got my time. 9:45 on Monday morning 1

Got my time... 7:30 a m. monday morning :-). Just did all of my shopping for the next 3 weeks and start liquid diet tomorrow for two days. WOW soooo excited. Best of luck to all 9-16 sleevers

Sorry I just reread your message and I'm sorry I realized you did name your surgeon. Don't mind me- I have liquid diet brain lol

Ya I know about liquid diet brain! But actually post op my brain feels better than pre op. I would love to meet you. I'm in room 301 so just give me a call. I will be gone from 10:30 till 2pm or so, but after that would be great!

Hi everyone,

I'm from Scotland and going to France for my sleeve op on 18 September.

I fly out tomorrow with my friend Susan and am scared beyond belief.

Loobylou- best of luck on your surgery and have a safe flight. We look forward to hearing how you made out.

Now that I am home I feel lots better. I encourage everyone to get gas x and a heating pad, it really makes a big difference.

Im Sept 30th . so excited!!!!!

We are too. Where are you having surgery?

My surgery date is 9th October .. Used to be 38 stone now 27 stone and people see my picture and always say I do not look it .. Looking ahead to a more active healthy life where I do not stand out from the crowd .,

I was September 3rd. Feeling good, down 11 lbs.

Good luck everyone having surgery this week!

Please add me as well.

I'm scheduled for monday at 1:00pm a little frustrated about that and let myself eat a half slice of pizza, so stressed and anxious right now, wondering of I'm better off not getting it. I'm not sure what to do and I may have screwed myself eby eating that small slice and I've done so well so far

You didn't screw yourself. Just make sure you don't give in tomorrow. It's nerve wracking, exciting, crazy, stressful, and just about any other emotion you can come up with. How did the pizza really taste? Probably not so wonderful! After Monday you won't even WANT that pizza for a loooong time. We are all the type of people thAt have made excuses to not do things our whole life - diet, exercise, cook, etc. make this a reason you HAVE to get surgery! I am sure you will do just fine! You only have ONE MORE DAY! Take a deep breath, forgive yourself and get ready for your new life.
