Thursday!! Today is Sunday. OMG! It has been a long, hard road with many hoops to jump through, and now, "suddenly", it's here! I am nearly there. I am nearly sleeved. I'm nearly having a difficult time with pain from a drain, and not able to drink a bottle of Water at one sitting. I'm nearly barely able to eat a tablespoon of greek yogurt at a sitting. My life is nearly changed for the better. One day soon I will be searching my closets for smaller clothes which I saved back from when I was smaller. I'm so excited to begin this journey to health and happiness, I am nearly able to polish my own toenails, to lace up my shoes. Nearly able to run up a flight of stairs and not be winded and keep up with my grand kids. It's Sunday...I'm nearly there!

@@proudgrammy Thank you for clearing that up for me! All the things I was making up that it stood for were ridiculous! LOL

I feel so much the same! I couldn't have said it better! Please note your progress

Did they move your surgery up?? They called today and said mine is 11 now. So excited for us!!!!

Good luck to all of you this week!! I wish I was right there with you, but still have over a month to go before I get my date with my surgeon... I'm getting antsy!!

Trust me it will absolutely fly by!! I thought it would never get here but looking back it has been so fast. Do as much research as you can and start transitioning to your preop diet ahead of time so it isn't as drastic of a change!! Thank you for the well wishes!

Have been researching every day many times daily.

Good luck!!! I know how excited/nervous you are. I was sleeved on 3/9 and without even thinking about it, was sitting at a softball game on Friday and realized I was sitting there with my legs crossed! What a feeling! I haven't been able to do that for...well, who knows how long it was. I was so excited when I realized what I was now able to do.

I'm so excited about this that I research this sight many many timed s day looking for information. Wanna do everything right to be successful.

@@wannaBthinsoon do you have a 2 week liquid diet? I just realized I've been on this liquid diet for 12 days without cheating!!! I can't believe we're so close.

@@erose321 I had one week. I've lost 10 pounds already!!

I'm on the 2 week pre-op diet too and have been so hungry but am doing fine regardless. I've lost 6 lbs in 12 days.
