Hello Everyone. I am new to this chat room. My surgery is March 9th and I am starting to feel super anxious. I am also on the two day “liquid” diet so there is that. I am trying to do everything I can think of to distract myself from Tuesday for now. Anyone else super close and anxious.

I am having the sleeve as well. I have had 3 other surgeries but nothing this major to have to stay overnight. I am super nervous. Trying to make a list of what to pack for hospital.

I know the feeling. I’m so nervous too but so ready for the next phase. Me too I’m keep looking at my list adding and deleting going by what I find out on here.

So far gastric sleeve is the best decision I’ve ever made. I was 340 on 1/28 as of today I’m sitting at 293. The weight loss in the first month or so especially is DRASTIC. First month is also the hardest there’s a lot of adapting to do accompanied by some frustration. It does get better I promise. broth, Jello, and even Water may irritate you for the first week or so (at least they did with me) but in time you’ll be fine don’t stress
