Sue, 6 weeks!? WOW you should be anyones inspiration when you get done. I thought 2 weeks was rough, you are a trooper. .

Thanks for all your support, 9 days to go, I am feeling great about everything now, I had a great couple days and the support from everyone is overwhelming. Its nice seeing people who understand what I am going through. It feels god knowing people have made it without cheating, as I have not cheated once yet and really made it this far. I hit my breaking point already and beat it, things are only looking up. Thank you everyone.

Thanks everyone maybe im over-reacting. We will see in 11 days how I feel about it. Sept 23rd cant come fast enough.

I can deal with shots because they come out, just something hanging out of me thats not natural, kind of freaks me out. Call me weird but its freaking me out. Did I say im freaked out.

Thanks I will do my best to keep all updated. Last night was a difficult night Im so irratable about not eating and I cant watch TV cause ever 5 seconds theres a commercial about something that looks fantastic. So if I dont watch TV i get bored rather quickly which means I get hungry rather quickly. I will be ok is all I keep telling myself. My goals are to get down to 180 lbs so I got a long journey 230lbs and its not going to happen overnight or if I break my will. I have to stay strong and will.

Thanks alot, hows everything going after the surgery, any other surprises I should be aware of?

My doctor has not even mentioned a drain and Im reading people talking about having a drain in them. What is it, how long does it stay in and where is it?

I want to introduce myself to all. Well im not a great writer but have been intrigued by this site and wish I found it sooner. I am getting the sleeve on Sept 23 I really am looking forward to it. However the doctor had me start my liquid diet on Monday 6th which I have been perfect about, not as hard as I thought. They actually have me drinking Slim fast optima cans instead of protein shakes ( I wont be able to do them after the surgery). I am currently 410 lbs, I lost 10 lbs since Monday. I cant wait to say goodbye to the weight. I am doing this for myself and my 4 year old daughter.
