Thank you all! I haven't been nervous at all until now. I think it's finally hitting me that this is actually happening, but of course I know this is exactly what I need so I'm also excited. Hopefully all goes well😊

I know exactly how you feel! I'm the same. The only way I've been able to cope is by reading the successful posts on line. This helps me soooo much and turns my negative thoughts into positive. Mine isn't until the 26th, but I'm already having sleepless nights scared and anxious. But you can do this. Change is difficult... but this is going to be a magnificent change to our lives. We just need to focus on how much better our health will be. Wishing you all the very best xx

You are not alone. I'm less than 2 days out from surgery and woke up sobbing this morning from a nightmare I had last night. I'm having trouble getting my pre-op liquid diet down because my stomach is so in knots. I have no second thoughts and am excited, but I'm scared. And thats ok- it's normal.

Sleeved April 4th, everything went fine. Blood count dropped a little so spent 2 nights in hospital but I think that is good, the rest helps.

already tired of liquid diet though, having some hot Jello now just to change it up a little.

good luck to everyone!! 👍👍

I don't have my exact date yet, but I will be April as well!

I have my endoscopy next Tuesday which I'm not looking forward to. After that, they'll give me an official April sleeve date!

I go for my final pre op this Thurs, 4/13 & my sleeve surgery is 4/17. I am allowed 1 small meal daily & 2 Protein  shakes. I am already at my required weight for surgery. I am afraid of eating too much before my surgery.

Mines is April 17 also

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!
