May sleevers?

[Melena68 40]

How exciting to know that so many of us are going on this journey together!!! It is great to know we will have each other for support. I start my liquid diet next Tuesday. Surgery is on May 9th. Are any of you already on the diet? How is it going?

I only have a 3 day preop diet because my BMI is lower at 32. I am thinking of starting the week before though so i can get used to the liquid diet.

I found out today that they're hoping to schedule me for May 16th. I freaked out a little because now it all feels so real! I'm self pay, so this has been a pretty short process and I almost feel like I haven't had enough time to wrap my head around it. I've been looking at VSG for over a year now, but it was all just wishful thinking. Then the stars aligned and I went to my first appointment less than a month ago. Anybody else freaking out a little on the inside?

I am self pay also and going to Mexico for my surgery. I have been researching for about 6 months, but now that it is getting so close I am feeling a little anxious myself. One thing that's i am doing is reading successful stories and staying away from the negative stuff. I know complications can happen, but I need to focus on the positive reasons I decided to have this surgery.

I know this is going to change my life for the better. So my advice to you and all of us May sleevers is to keep a positive attitude and to believe in ourselves!!!
