I can't believe in only 4 more days we will begin our journey to weight loss I was hoping that anyone with this date stays close by and replies to this post that way we all know what we are experiencing and can help each other out.

What types of What ifs?

What types of What ifs?

What if the recovery is worse than with my band? What if it doesn't work, just like the band? They're small things that I know the answer to, but the control freak in me doesn't like them!

Well I've never been banded but I do know with the support of everyone here we will do great with the sleeve I'm definitely trying to stay optimistic

Dr didn't have me on a liquid pre-op diet, but been on shakes/small amounts off food for 4 weeks now.

I start the liquid diet on monday (tomorrow) and then surgery tues morning.

I just went grocery shopping today to pick up the necessities for the first two weeks.

I got Jello, popsicles, Water, crystal light, broth, Soups, yogurt, some small measuring cups (like the 1-8 oz kind so I can keep up with how much I drink).

I couldn't do the whey Protein (made me gag just to smell it). I was able to find the rice Protein and it doesn't have near as bad of a flavor.

I got the chewable Iron, tylenol gel caps, immodium, mylicon, Multivitamin chewable, Calcium citrate chewable, B-12 sublingual, and chewable Iron (which was hard to find... finally got it at the Vitamin Shoppe).

I picked up my prescripts for the nausea med and the prilosec meds (dr. gave me a script for the first 7 days)

I'm getting my bag packed, laptop, book, comfy clothes, flip flops, robe, etc.

Hope this helps those who are getting prepared!!

I'll keep you updated!!
