I can't believe that June 23rd has come so fast. I am ready, but still a good amount of nerves have set in.

I have had SO little in the way of calories and nutrients over the past week. My appetite has just completely vanished on the 2 wk pre-op diet and it has been very hard to intake anything. I've had mostly shakes, and now I"m hoping I haven't ingested so little that i will be in trouble. Good news is today I get to have REGULAR juices, popcicles, etc to carry my blood sugar through tomorrow.

I know that there is a religious board, but there is very little activity on there. I would like to ask those who are so inclined to keep me in your thoughts, prayers and such over the next few days.

I will see everyone over on the post-op board!!!!!

I am the same day as you.

Wow how exciting. Don't be nervous or scared. We're all with you. Let us know how you're doing when you get out of surgery. God bless you all! Mines in a month and I'll be reading all that you guys share to help me get ready and mentally prepare .

I am praying for you!

Best wishes and prayers to both of you.

Thank you!

Prayers heading your way...

Thank you!

Good luck tomorrow! Mine is on Wednesday!

Good luck to you both and wishing you both a speedy recovery.

Thank you!

Tomorrow is my day too. Praying for a speedy recovery

Prayers for you! God Bless!

Very best wishes for you two. It sounds like you're both ready and, appropriately, nervous about this big change in your lives.

Please let us know how you're doing post-op.

((hugs))

Thank you so much! Will keep posting afterwards. Thanks for the (((Hugs)))!

Prayers for all three of you having the surgery over the next couple of days. Let us know how you all are afterwards!

Thank you so much!

OMG. I'm so glad I'm not the only one with the pre op jitters. Good luck to all the upcoming surgeries. I'm a much better nurse than patient. If one more skinny person tells me I should "try" eating less and exercising more instead of having surgery- I just may scream.

Thank you! I am happy for you. We are doing what we know is the right thing to do! On the count of 1, 2, 3...SCREAM! YAY!

My prayers are with you.

Your prayers are so appreciated!

I would like to truly thank everyone for your warm wishes and prayers. Today was an up and down day with plenty of self-doubt, not about having my sleeve, but the 'what if's...glad it is evening and moving towards bed time!

i will be signing off soon and I promise I will log on as soon as I can with a new thread to update my experience.

thanks again!

Praying that all goes smoothly for you!
