    I have the same surgery date as well. So ready for the preop diet to be over with. The last two days are going to be the worst because it's all clear liquids!

@@meandtheboys i am so nervous bt so over it..i have packed my overnight bag several times and still feel like im missing something..i have had several food funerals...im just glad its less than 48 hrs away

Me too!! I'm trying not to think about it too much! I'm a band to sleever so I a good idea of what to expect in the first few weeks afterwards. It's a little tough but the good thing is that it will get better. The best part is that I know the sleeve will work for me. Had a tough time with the band for about 4 years. We can do this!!

Hi all - so how are you doing after surgery? Unfortunately mine was postponed due to death in my doctor's family. So, I'm going in this Friday, April 10. Anything tips or things that are different than you expected? How long dis you stay in the hospital?

Good luck all!!
