That's what it's supposed to be but my date got switched and I technically only did about 4 days. I asked my Dr and he assured me I would be fine. Thank God my surgery came and went and I have not had any problems. I am 17 days post op.

Trust me i was super nervous but thank God I have an amazing fiance and support system. I personally prayed alot but everyone has there own way of calming down. The actual day of my surgery I just did my best to relax and I was quiet most of the morning and just took alot of deep breaths. Not gonna lie I cried a bit before going into the operating room but the nurses and Dr were amazing with me. Another fun fact I had never had surgery so I felt extra scared but thank God everything came out great.

In 2015, I had my gallbladder remove and for that surgery I was not nervous at all!!!!!
But for the sleeve, I am so nervous! Extremely excited because I know is the best for me, but my best friend (like sister) she is doesn’t want me to do it, and always tell me about something wrong with the anesthesia, or bacterias.... and she try to scare me about the surgery.

My best advice for that is just don't listen to the negative. I will be honest I did not tell to many people because I did not want negative comments or anyone to talk me out of this amazing change in my life. The few people I did tell were amazingly supportive. Just keep thinking of your health and all the amazing things you will be able to do after. Like I said I am only 17 day post op but I don't regret what I did i know my health is the most important thing.

Another thing people sometimes make you think twice because they are scared and don't understand the whole process. The more information they get the easier it will be for them to be supportive.

I told my mother, brother and my fiancé. I told my friend when I started the process, but she doesn’t know that I will have my surgery, because she was so negative so I told her that I will not do it... am afraid of her reaction after the surgery

If she is your real friend she will be fine with it. Don't focus on her focus on yourself and on the people who are supportive. Above all you are what is important it sounds selfish I know but sometimes it has to be like that especially if its something so positive for you.

Ok so... I went today for the last appointment before my surgery...
My pre-op diet will be one week before the surgery low carbs.
1 day before surgery liquid diet... but I hear the liquid diet is supposed to be 1 or 2 weeks before surg, so why is different with me?

I only had to do 1 day of liquids before as well. 1 week would have been torture for me back than lol You'll find a lot of doctors do things differently so don't get to concerned about it. And that goes for the post op diet.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
