Hi all

I'm scheduled for surgery May 1, 2017 and wondering if there are any fellow May Sleevers out there.

I am scheduled for May 8th. Also nervous and excited!

How was yesterday? Remember this is temporary!

Everything went well with my second pre-op diet. I see some difference in my tummy and legs. I'm seeing stretch marks and jiggles.

Seraya how are you holding up?

Hi Jen!

I was thinking of you. Monday is your big day. Tuesday is mine.

im doing OK though it depends on when you ask. I've been sticking to things even though sometimes I just want to pig out on a pizza or something. I don't. I know why I'm doing this and that keeps me going. I got some new protein powder that I like a lot better and I think that helps too. Night time is the harderst when I don't have the distraction of work to help take my mind off the physical and head hunger. After work is always when I I would do my biggest eating so I need some new evening habits. Been walking the dog a lot more. It's great that we are going into better weather. I live in Buffalo and definitely get seasonal depression in the winter. I'm going to the store later today for my final pre-surgical shopping for some clear broth, yogurt, and Propel water (for some reason my doc likes that). A little house cleaning and laundry, pedicure, shave my legs (LOL), and then tomorrow I pick my step mom up from the airport (she's coming to help me out). I reread my special clear liquids only diet for Monday, got my magnesium citrate for the bowel prep, and just need to pack what I want to bring to the hospital. It's getting very real. I ended up taking Monday afternoon off once I Found out about the bowel prep.

good luck. Please check in and let me know how you're doing.

They never mentioned bowel prep to me. Hmm. I wonder if everyone has to do it.
You sound like all your ducks are in a row and you're good to go!

No bowel prep for me either. At my hospital none of the bariatric patients do one. This waiting is killer lol. May 23 hurry up lol

Yeah. Noon the day before we have to drink 10 oz of magnesium citrate. They use it a lot in prep for colonoscopy. Plus that day is clear liquids only. Gonna be a tough one.

I'm doing a lot of the same things. I've been to the store twice and each time I forget something. So I have one more trip today and then its cleaning the house. I am in S FL and am currently at the beach -- my holy place.

I had my first screw up last night with my lean protein. I was at a restaurant starving for my one meal of the day and ordered pork that was fried. I didn't realize it until I was eating. Not the end of the world, but disappointed that I messed up 2 days before surgery.

Good for you on taking Monday afternoon off!

I'll check in as soon as I am up to it. Good luck on Tuesday!!

May 9 is my day congratulations 2 u
