"Tomorrow, tomorrow, I love you, tomorrow, you're only a DAY away..."

Tomorrow is V-day for me (victory with VSG). I am very excited and a little nervous. I only had to do 3 days of liquid diet and it has not been nearly as bad as I had feared. I found the broths to be MUCH better with about 6-7 drops of Tabasco added. If I started to feel weak, it was time for another protein drink so it's all good. I'm feeling strong and ready to start a new life!

Blessings,

Kat!! I'm so excited for you! I have a nice seat on the Loser's Bench right here for you. I'm going to put a nice down pillow on it so that it's nice and soft.

You may need to test the waters with the Tabasco post-op. I generally eat Jalapeno's right out of the jar but post op I found that even Salsa in month two was really irritating to my lil'Sleevie. You'll find what works for you.

I am soooooooo excited about your surgery. What a wild ride you're about to go on! :)

Thanks, everybody. All of YOU are a big reason I am feeling so strong about doing this.

Good thoughts, Lee. I am planning to sneak my bottle of Tabasco to the hospital but I will try just 1 drop first...

LOL Kat, there will be no Tabasco happening in the hospital. You'll be lucky to get down a little water and tea. It will be awhile before you have dreams of Tabasco.

Good Luck today!!

Best of luck to you tomorrow! You have such a great attitude and that is half the battle right there! Get on that bench and then scoot over 'cause I'll be on it with you in about a week and a half!
