Any surgery buddies for 2/13/17

My day is near and now I am so excited. Been a long long journey for me as I ended up with a DVT in my right arm which pushed my surgery 6 months out . Question does or did any one have to do a bowel prep day before surgery?

Did a liver shrinkage diet two weeks before and a bowel prep. All the best for tomorrow. Hope it goes according to plan.

I just has sleeve done on February 2nd so it just made a week on Thursday. I'm in the same boat very weak tired and can't get many fluids in. today is really a bad day. I am so regretful! I wish I didn't do this. I know in the long run it will be the best thing I've ever done, but again I'm just having a very bad day. But I hope you do great and we'll both be okay. just be prepared for days like this.. Sorry if i brought anyone's mood down.

This is to be expected. I think we all have buyers remorse periodically in the beginning. I can relate. My surgery was 12/1/16 and I have thought it a handful of times but then I remind myself of the progress so far, others results and remind myself I will get there in time because each month gets better. I'm now able to eat solid foods and it felt like this day would never come!

lbs My sister had the surgery 4 years ago and looks amazing plus feels great. We too will do great!!!

Tomorrow is my last day before surgery. I have done the liquids & tomorrow I will stick a bottle of mag citrate. I work in the med field. Believe me, you want to do it. It will decrease your risks. If anything happens to get nicked, you would have crap leaking. It's just an easy thing to do to improve odds of complications.
