If you have to do the bowel cleanse, get some baby wipes and diaper rash cream or vaseline or something. You get real sore real fast after drinking that stuff. Drinking lots of water during the pre-op diet greatly helps with controlling hunger.

Please let us know how your doing after the surgery. I'll be praying for you

Congrats! Woo Hoo! Time for the happy dance. Face the days ahead with openess and be ready for some strange mood swings and you prepare for your day. I was so very excited and then all of a sudden about 3 days before surgery, I was weepy and scared. I however knew that God had brought me this far and He would not drop me. I talked to my friends and those who had previously been sleeved and was reassured. You can do this! God's blessings to you.
