I have a tentative date with Dr. Kelly-Mexico!! May 16th

Griselda · April 5, 2011

I am tentatively going to be sleeved by Dr. Kelly on May 16th. I am excited and nervous. I am waiting for him to review my medical history to make sure I won't need additional tests or anything before I commit to that date for sure. Is anyone else going around that time. I am still wondering how I am going to make it through the liquid diet, pre-op, but then I remember that I will basically be doing liquids for a long time until I can eat solid again.

Congrats on your date! I'm not sure on my date yet but probably mid to end of May. I am dreading the pre-op diet too, but hopefully it will go fast!

Don't dread the liquids, it's easy-peasey. You will not be hungry with the Protein Shakes. Just remember what you are doing, and why. Your transition to the "lighter side" will be a cinch. Keep the faith!! I went to Mexico and Dr. Kelly did my surgery on March 15th. You will be put at ease the minute you meet him. He's just fantastic. Good luck.

Congrats... You're on your way now... I'm not sleeved and no date just yet ( optimist) any how most people on here do very well on pre op diet... Some lose like 20 lbs on it... Just stay focused and remember we're here for support....
