3 days!!!! EEK!!
My VSG is Friday morning so I don't even have 3 more full days left!! I am so ready to do this! To the ones just starting the pre-op diet.. IT GETS EASIER!! I have 2.5 days left of the pre-op diet.. I had to do 2 weeks of it.. The first cpl days were hell.. But it is easier and easier each day. :) I have lost 9lbs so far and hopefully more by Friday! Please say a prayer for me that everything goes smoothly and I have a speedy recovery. Thank you all xo

Sending well wishes and positive vibes your way. Nerves are normal, so is the anticipation. I too, did a two week pre-surgery liquid diet and I'm glad, I think I would've struggled going from full food to the new sleeve. I'm 5 weeks out and love it. Just remember to be gentle with yourself and your recovery. Let people help you. Best wishes!

I'll hold you in my prayers. I know you'll do great, and the weight loss is amazing. As someone who struggled unsuccessfully with weight for decades, I am so amazed by how powerful the weight loss surgery is. It really works if you follow your plan.
best wishes,
