I would really like to connect with you all since we'll be so close with our surgery dates. 3 more weeks to go for me! :-)

I have been scheduled for 25th April!

@LaurieRenz and @ymmv we are sleeve buddies. April 5th for me as well, at Bailey's in OK. First appointment was In August 2016. Liquid diet starts Wednesday. @PatientEleventyBillion I am German / American. I am amazed how much weight you lost already! WOW.

I am not sure this was a good idea. I think I will drive myself crazy watching this but I created my own countdown calendar. https://www.timeanddate.com/countdown/generic?iso=20170426T0530&p0=219&msg=My+Surgery&font=cursive

I've had a countdown down going for a while now! I started it 2 months before, so crazy that I only have a month left [emoji24]

I can't believe how quickly the time has come to bring us to the brink of our surgeries in April. With that being said, what crucial things have you guys already bought in preparation for the big event?
I bought my sippy 360 cup, which I heard helps with those first couple of weeks with drinking water. I don't want to accidentally drink out of a glass too fast and feel the pain. I still need to buy my Gas-X strips for the hospital, to help with getting the gas/air out. I bought my calcium citrate with vitamin D chewables--which were ridiculously expensive as vitamins go. I've already been taking my B Complex-50 tablet and Centrum women's multi vitamin gummies.
Other than that, I have nothing. I'm still a month away, but I was curious the 'must haves' you all have thought to get in

I just found out I was approved and my surgery is scheduled for April 17th. I was really shocked that my approval only took about 24 hours [emoji15].
Now it is getting real!

Hi, I'm scheduled for the 4th of April. Been on protein diet since the 8th of March. So far it was OK. But I don't really reach my 1h of physical activity everyday. This week is OK since I'm skiing. I'm Swedish / German.
