I've got my Date Oct. 19, Anyone close to that?

Just wondering if there is anyone in the area(Michigan) who had a date close to mine or anyone in general for that matter that we could help each other out along the way :-) Its getting to the last few weeks and my nerves are starting to get to me.

Yay, I finally found a Protein drink that works for me which I'm stoked about because its been a long 6 mos trying all the different brands and flavors.

Is it strange that I made sure to up my life insurance policy just in case something bad happens, for some reason I am only thinking of the bad and not the good that can come out of this! Suggestions?

Thanks!

Holy moly, I'm ready for this liquid diet to be over and to get on with it! Two more sleeps friends and our new lives begin! ❤️❤️

I'm thankful my dr did 2 shakes and one meal for only 1 week. They told me it'd be all liquid for 2 wks in the book. But found out that it's different for everyone. Hold on! We are almost there.!

I'm in Wisconsin...surgery is 3:30 pm tomorrow, October 19. I'm on clear liquids right now, and my stomach is growling! Lol. The biggest fear for me is post surgery nausea and dry heaves, etc. I'm hoping that doesn't happen! Good luck everyone!!

????tomorrow, tomorrow, I'll have a tiny tummy tomorrow, it's only a day away!????

But seriously! Eeeeeek! After 13 months it's finally here.

Starting weight: 294 (September 2014)
Current weight: 250

One of the joys of teaching school is being able to watch yourself change and age ???? Below is what 40lbs less looks like....can't wait to use my tool and keep this journey going.

Tomorrow for me as well. Omg I am making list after list hoping I don't forget! I hate the clear liquids I miss my chocolate shake for breakfast. I also forgot to measure myself so I need to do that today. They want me there at 5am and I live an hour away so I don't anticipate sleep at all. Good luck everyone, here we go....

My date is tomorrow the 19th in Florida! I'm not nervous for the actual surgery just for messing up after. Good luck everyone!!!

Tomorrow 7:30 am!!! So excited and ready for it to be behind me and to move forward to a healthy life!! I wonder what time I'll wake up...

You are implying you'll sleep....I'm impressed. Lol

Haha I meant from the anesthesia!! I think it will definitely take some heavy drugs to knock me out in the next 24 hours ????

Good luck to everyone who is having the sleeve tomorrow, the 19th. 8:00 am for me ATX. Looking forward to a new me!!!

Good luck to everyone else going tomorrow. Mine is at 12:30. I am very excited, but the nerves are starting to kick in. I feel like I have so much to get ready still around the house for the kids. lol

I can't sleep!!!! Ahhhhh???????????????? I can't believe tomorrow is day!!! I'm soooo excited but super anxious/nervous all at the same time. ???????????????????? #CrossOverDay19

Yes I haven't peed so much in my life either! Told my best friend today I wish I had a nickel for every time cause I'd be getting rich as much as I go on this diet. Lol. And by the time I have surgery on the 28th I will have been on it 27 days too because of the office starting a group of us at one time.
