    Default Tomorrow is my big day!!

    Hey everyone, I'm SO excited! Tomorrow is my big day and I am so ready! I'm not nervous at all! I'm wondering if anyone has any last minute advice for me. I have my Gas-x strips, my SF lozenges, all of my protein drinks and prescribed diet items for the first couple weeks of liquid diet. I think I'm all set. Now I'm just anxious to join all you vets on the "losers' bench".

    Good luck and congratulations. WHen I had my lap band, I pre-made jello with unflavored protein powder so that it was in the fridge ready for me when I got home from the hospital.

    I read where several "vets" were glad they took some chapstick. Best wishes and hoping you have a speedy recovery!

    Definitely chapstick! Docs are different but I couldn't have anything by mouth until the next morning so I was REALLY dry! Those little Wisp tooth brushes are handy too. Good luck. You'll do great.

    Good luck to you too. I will be thinking of all of us getting our sleeve tomorrow. I will check in post-op as soon as I can. I have to leave my house for the hospital at 5:00 am tomorrow morning...and I surely can't sleep tonight. Best of luck! Janine

    Janine, I'll be praying for you and look forward to catching up afterward! I know what you mean about not being able to sleep.
