My surgery date is Nov. 10th and looking for all the support and tips I can get. Was hoping there was a support group around here.

I have been on a year program to get my insurance to pay. I'm scheduled for Nov. 10th.

Hey all, I'm scheduled to be sleeved Nov. 10th. How long before surgery did you start your liquid diet? My nutrionalist said 2 weeks. Protien shakes and a lean cuisine meal at dinner if I choose or just protien shakes. I did Optifast for 18 weeks of my year diet required by my insurance. My surgeon said 7 to 10 days on the liquid diet. Just wanted to see what others were told or recommend. Thanks and good luck to everyone. ...it's getting close. If anyone is looking for a surgery buddy I could use one. Would be nice to chat by email or even text if anyone is nervous as me. Strength in numbers right?

I'm in Tallahassee. Getting sleeved on Nov. 10th. Dr. Crooms is doing mine. Any tips or advice are welcomed. Excited and nervous.

Best of luck. Mine is Nov. 10th. .. Would love to hear how your doing. Sending prayers and best wishes

Mine is scheduled for the 10th also. My nerves are starting to kick up a little. But I'm ready. Best of luck to you.

Hello all, This is my first post I just found this app. I have been on a program at my local bariatric center since August of 2013. My insurance required I see a therapist, a nutrionalist, 12 months of weigh-ins and to lose 10% of my body weight. I started out at my top weight of 523...started the program at 511. I now weigh 425 at the end of the year program. I got my letter of approval in the mail a few days ago for the gastric sleeve. Im very excited and nervous. I have learned a lot over the last year but still have a lot of questions everyday that pop in my head. Very glad to have found this forum. My surgery date is November 10th , pre-op is on Nov. 6th. I have been married to 12 years to my beautiful supportive wife and have 4 wonderful children. Im so excited for my new life and getting this weight off. Thanks for reading Alan
