Today is "The Day"!!! I have to be at the hospital at 9 A.M., surgery is scheduled for somewhere around 11 A.M. I very anxious to get there and get this done. Please keep me in your prayers!! Thank you all for the support thus far!

Tomorrow is also my surgery day also. Prayers to you also for a swift recovery. God Bless!!

I am so happy tonight!!! I completed my education/exercise class today along with measurements, last weigh in and lab work. I will begin complete liquid diet on Friday and begin antibiotics on Monday along with the yucky magnesium citrate. Looking forward to Tuesday morning!!! I'm excited, nervous and scared all at the same time. I guess this is normal. Are there any of you that feel the same way???

6 months worth of appts, nut eval, sleep study, pulmonologist. Last appt was Sept 16, scheduled surgery that day for October 29 and finally got insurance approval last Thursday. Began preop diet the next day and surgery is a little over a week away.

October 29 in MS

I am so excited!!! Got my approval today and a surgery date of October 29, 2013. Beginning high protein low carb diet tomorrow, any helpful information would be greatly appreciated!! Scared, nervous, anxious, excited, and so much more all in one!!!

I got my date of October 29, 2013!!! I am beyond excited at this point!! So ready for my new healthy life. I am just curious as to some of the things that I should take to the hospital with me.

Just wanting some input..any Sleevers from MS on this site??

I've been on this site since March 2013, I totally agree with everyone that this is a very good informative site. I have finished up my all my appts except for the final one with the surgeon and it is Sept 16 2013. Nervous and excited all in one. Don't really know what all to ask anyone so any info will be very appreciative.

I have heard different stories...some say you do on week liquid diet prior to surgery then I've heard others say two weeks. Does this accurate? Any info would be very helpful please. Thanks

Proudgrammy you have cracked me up!!! )

My husband has a question regarding me having the sleeve and I'm ashamed to even ask He ask if I will lose my sex drive or do u even notice a change?
