Well its almost here!!!! Excited and nervous like the rest of them.

I'm April 18th as well, in Virginia. Where are you having yours done?

Have you checked out the "what to have before surgery" and "what to bring to the hospital" lists? I've found them sooo helpful.

And yeah, thrilled and terrified all at once, that's me. Good luck to you!

Hey there coops and Virginia. Thanks for replying. We shall now be sleeve sisters..lol. I have checked out what to bring. I've been stalking this website and OH for months. Sometimes I feel like I know to much!!lol. Well I guess that's better than not, right! Tomorrow the surgery coordinator will be calling me to give me my time. I will be in for 2 nights and released the third day. I know I will have a drain and a catheter oh geez! The third day he wants to do puree, I am gagging at the thought. That's sometimes scarier than the surgery itself. Can't believe its a week from tomorrow. I told my husband tonight as we watched food porn on the good channel....that nothing better taste as good as thin is supposed to feel. Got a little chuckle from him. I did not tell many people just a few friends. In fact no family knows they think its gallbladder surgery(lord knows what I will say if I really have to get that taken out). Good luck to you both on your journeys!!!

My surgery is scheduled for April 18th. In Baton Rouge, LA

Let's keep in touch. I need all the encouraging and support I can get.

I am nervous. Never been put under.

My doctor does not have me on a pre op diet. I have been eating some of my favorite foods now before my surgery just to get it out of my system. Here in LA we have awesome food. I also come from a big italian family where food is the center of everything! So hard to resist, but I have come this far to do this WLS surgery and I know it will be worth it.

Good luck to all!
