Oh yes!! I start pre op diet on the 15th as well!!!

Yay!! It's getting so close!!

I start my pre-op Friday a d surgery 20th of December.

Me too...getting sleeved with my BFF on the 19th in TJ with Dr. Elais Ortiz with ALM :)

Going home the same day would not have been an option for me. I barely woke up the day I had it (Dec.3) I hope you push to spend the night. It's a major surgery. They need to observe you and be certain that you can drink, walk and go to the bathroom.

I agree, definitely could not have gone home the same day either. Mine was Wednesday morning, December 3rd. Came home Thursday, took some pain meds, then headed off to an elementary school Christmas concert. Took doctors advice, sat in the back, and waited for everyone else to leave before I got up.

Wow! I had mine the 3, came home late the 4, no way could I have gone anywhere.... I slept a lot the first few days.

Hi, I am a Dec.30 sleever, I start full liquids on the 16th.

Sleeved December 8th. Doing well. Still a little sore. Ready to actually eat. I don't think I am hydrated enough. It's really hard to sip all day.

It is hard to sip all day BUT...... You do not want to get dehydrated! I didn't drink enough and had to go back to ER per Drs orders and get rehydrated. It set my recovery back a few days. Try some flavored water, broth helps me a lot. I know it's hard but you gotta do this.

Due to issues from prior WLS my date has been bumped back to Jan. 12. Yayyyyy to me for finally losing 20 lbs and Double YAYYYYY to @@haleytrim for being such a ROCK of support. Let me go look for those January New lifers! Happy Holidays ALL!!!

Jolls says "straws are our friends" so if need be, I will ship away.

Anyone feeling the blues? I suddenly feel so sad, weird that my nervous excitement is gone.

Dec 4 was my surgery date :)

Jolls, my emotions have been all over the place. Sad happy disgusted regret hyper. Saw the surgeon for my first post-op visit yesterday he said it's totally normal. My emotions are leveling out the farther out I get. I dumped the regret.
