Aidanog, should be on the OR table about the same time as you tomorrow! Good luck and prayers to you! ALL WILL BE GOD!

Grrr... just found out my surgery has been pushed back to from 11am to 1pm tomorrow. So more dehydrated anticipation for me. When you are thus close time stands still. Been dreading it so long I just want it to be over with already. I know I’m being Winnie but it’s how I feel

I’m so sorry! Stay up late, or set your alarm for 2:00 am, and drink a really big glass of water. Then go back to sleep and sleep and try to sleep late.

Thank you dear. Prayers your way for the smoothest surgery ever! Keep us posted! How are you feeling? Excited? Nervous? Ready?

Started my pre op diet today. Surgery is a week away! Crazy how fast it snuck up on me even though it felt like forever.

Congratulations on starting starting your preciet, hold tight and follow directions. MINE is working for me, lost 13 pounds in 20 days. My surgery is still 2 weeks off, hope to make it down to 300 or below. We shall see, we shall see. In the meantime do your very best to prepare. This is your life and you're changing for the better!

My Sleeve to RNY revision is in T - 2 hours and 20 minuets. Arriving at hospital. Please say a prayer for me

@ellie123 Sending prayers that all goes well for you!

I am 2 day pos-op myself. I'm just ready to go home.

Surgery date was 8/21. I was discharged 8/22. It was very painful. Lots of gas. I walked a lot, took in my liquids well and peed often. I believe that’s why I was able to come home. The smell of food makes me cringe. Surgery weight 247

My surgery date was August 16th. I feel like crap. Really weak and dizzy when I stand up to do anything. I read that this is common.

@ashmarie794 yikes hope that doesn't happen to me because my doctor is a little off at times let me ask they don't approve u before the date like in advance?

Hey guys surgery is 5 days away I’ve got today plus Friday and Saturday on solid food then all clear liquids for two days. I’m dreading it like I’m in a funk as of late but I’ll be ok how are y’all doin

Clear liquids? Oi! I had tomato soup with 2 ounces of lean chicken Italian sausage in it the nigh before my surgery!

Ask if if you can have egg drop soup! It is low cal, low carb, and has protein.

Good luck!
