Thank you all! I haven't been nervous at all until now. I think it's finally hitting me that this is actually happening, but of course I know this is exactly what I need so I'm also excited. Hopefully all goes well😊

I know exactly how you feel! I'm the same. The only way I've been able to cope is by reading the successful posts on line. This helps me soooo much and turns my negative thoughts into positive. Mine isn't until the 26th, but I'm already having sleepless nights scared and anxious. But you can do this. Change is difficult... but this is going to be a magnificent change to our lives. We just need to focus on how much better our health will be. Wishing you all the very best xx

You are not alone. I'm less than 2 days out from surgery and woke up sobbing this morning from a nightmare I had last night. I'm having trouble getting my pre-op liquid diet down because my stomach is so in knots. I have no second thoughts and am excited, but I'm scared. And thats ok- it's normal.

Sleeved April 4th, everything went fine. Blood count dropped a little so spent 2 nights in hospital but I think that is good, the rest helps.

already tired of liquid diet though, having some hot Jello now just to change it up a little.

good luck to everyone!! 👍👍

I don't have my exact date yet, but I will be April as well!

I have my endoscopy next Tuesday which I'm not looking forward to. After that, they'll give me an official April sleeve date!

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
