    Is It True What They Say???

    What about the ladies? What do I have to look forward to? I'm getting sleeved April 4. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App
  4. Try not to panic. I'm betting most of it will be gone in a few days. Leave the scale alone for a couple days. For me, when the scale isn't moving I get super stressed out. So I just keep Doing what I'm supposed to do and forget about the numbers. When I weigh again a few days later, all is well. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

    Pre-op Liquid Diet

    @finallyfree....I would kill for a salad. My 2 week preop diet is low carb liquids only! I had an appt this morning with the surgeon and the nurse told me I could have 1 dill pickle spear/day. Woohoo! Something to crunch! Tomorrow I go for preop bloodwork and meet anesthesia. One week from today our lives will be changing for the better! Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

    Pre-op Liquid Diet

    I'm day 5 of 2 week preop liquid diet. Surgery April 4. I do good until 4 pm then my stomach starts rumbling. But I'll have a Protein shake and stay strong! I just keep thinking "shrink the liver!" One of my shakes today was vanilla Protein powder with a lemonade crystal light powder (the singles). It was really good! Good luck to us all! Stay strong! Shrink the liver!!!! Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

    Where Are All The East Coasters?

    Hi all! I'm in Houston, Tx and getting sleeved April 4!! Sooo excited!! But my sister lives in NS and is feeling frustrated and hopeless because the waiting list is 2 years in NS. I was telling her about people from Canada and US going to Mexico. When you go to Mexico, do you still do preop consults like here? Psych/cardio/nutrition/endo? If you did do it, where did you do it? Mexico or home? If at home, how difficult was it to do your preops there with timing and getting referrals? I really appreciate any info you can give me. I know she is feeling very down and depressed. Thank you!!
