    Default On my way! And a little TMI

    I just wanted to say thank you to everyone here for helping me with my journey to getting sleeved. Special shout out to Kindle - my go to gal. Much appreciation and I hope you are doing well!
    My flight leaves in a few hours and tomorrow is surgery! I'm not nervous at all (well I am but only about flying because I hate it).
    The only issue I am having is after 2 weeks on a liquid diet, I haven't gone to the bathroom - and today I feel super-constipated. I wish I had thought to take a laxative or something but really.....after nothing but liquid I didn't think I'd be feeling like this (Sorry! Told you.....TMI )
    Oh well, if this is the worst of it, that would be awesome!

    See you when I'm sleeved

    Good luck. I'm the same size with the same goal. Surgery is the 21st. Interested to see how things go for you!

    Maybe you could use an enema the night before surgery.
