I finally made the thread for those of us who are scheduled for May 15th. It'll be fun to hear how all of us are doing during our journeys. Feel free to share!

There are many of us on pre-ops now and some have a few days. Just about a week left!!! How awesome and exciting it is! ?

Dont forget to FOLLOW the thread!

Anyone else's stomach in a ball of nerves now? Didn't think it'll happen to me, since having multiple surgeries before. Not really nervous, still excited, guess anxious maybe? I'm not familiar with this feeling.

at first I thought maybe I had a bad protein drink...but it hasn't gone.

On the flip side, I ordered a size large swimsuit for next year. ? I expect to be wearing it too and hopefully it'll fit and not be too big (or even small).

I am feeling similar. I think it is just normal to be anxious before a major surgery.

I will be picked up tomorrow morning at 8:30 to head over to the hospital. I will have some pre op tests and then surgery.

I will be keeping all of you in my prayers for a safe surgery with no complications.

We are all going to do great. I hope we can manage to sleep a little tonight. See you on the other side!!

Bags are packed, house is cleaned, groceries purchased for the week (kuds/hubby). Now just need to find sleep.

Good luck May 15thers! Check in post op. xo

Hi everyone!.. just downloaded the app and saw this thread.. my surgery is also on may 15th, in a couple of hours!! Will check back in...

I'm not gonna lie, I'm scared! But I know my journey to a thinner healthier me starts as 6 am now to sleep just a little bit if possible. My prayers are with you all. May the Lord gift all of our surgeons with care and skill to bring us through this and set us on our paths to brighter happier healthier lives. Xoxo my friends see you after we wake up!

My prayer for all of us, may God's hands be over us the entire time. In jesus' name. Amen.

I managed to get six and a half hours of sleep. Yay! Just about to get out of the truck at the hospital. Y'all be blessed. Will update as soon as I am able.

It is time! ?

For the past two days, I've been on liquids, only yesterday was clear liquids. Since I don't have to be at the hospital today until 1, my mom and I are actually going to the zoo! Thankfully, I can still drink water all day. I'm still not nervous or excited. I have no idea why. I know a few of you are already in prep, so good luck!!!

Good luck today everyone. God is watching over all of us. I know many on the east coast are already at the hospital. I will be leaving in about 2 hours. See all of you on the other side. ??❤️?

Have fun at the zoo! That's a great way to kill time.
