Mine is on June 21 too. Good luck to you!

I would say more nervous than excited. I've never had surgery before. My main issues are knee and foot pain, which are manageable but I don't want them to get worse. So I expect my quality of life will get a little worse immediately after the surgery before it gets better. I was pretty bummed out about having to start the pre-op diet, but now I'm halfway through it and my mood is getting better. Plus it has helped me lose a couple more pounds. I guess I have been so focused on getting ready for surgery that I haven't spent as much time thinking about how great things could be a few months from now!

How about you?

I'm 1/2 through my preop & slipped up by eating taco salad & oh my God I'm sick haha. I'm nervous but I have had 5 major surgeries so I'm kinda like cool, come at me bro. Lmao

I'm just ready for a change. To be healthy & use this as a tool as it's meant. To spend a better quality of life with my son <3

Definitely looking forward to having more energy, less pain, and being able to keep up with my family skiing and biking!

That is my day too! First surgery as well so that freaks me out even more I think than the sleeve right now. The pre op is blah I think the only way I have been like 95% compliant and 100% these last days is because focused on Tuesday.

Not to much longer !!!![emoji10]

Good luck to us! Today's the day. Let's post after and say how we are doing.

Made it through the first night. My surgery was at 4:00pm and I walked around the floor around 10pm. Some pain but it's manageable. Looking forward to having my family visit today. And drinking water... Best thing I brought to the hospital was ear plugs. How is everyone else doing?

Doing well and going home tonight!
