I can do a poll in another thread. We should come up with a few ideas:

Maybe:

-Sizzling Sleevers

- Sparkling Sleevers

-July Firecrackers

- Red, White & Blue Crew

- Lucky Number Sevens (July being the 7th month of the year)

I'll post a poll with these and a "other" option :)

HI everyone,

Sheila here. I am having my sleeve done on July 27, here in Canada. Dr. Lawrence Farries is my surgeon.

I am so excited and ready for this surgery. Not only will I be sleeved, but I will have my gallbladder removed as well as a hernia repair. I am getting a 3 for 1 deal.

The next 6 weeks will be exciting.

Sheila

I'm Heather, my surgery is scheduled for July 20 in South San Francisco, CA.

I can't wait... I was originally scheduled for June 22, but I got a cold the week before surgery and we had to postpone, then my doc couldn't get me in for 4 weeks. I'm a little bummed since I'm supposed to be waking up in the hospital today and have a tiny tube shaped stomach, but I'm still sick and I know even if I had no complications with my cold, coughing like I am with a bunch of holes in my belly would not be fun.

I'm also getting my gallbladder out when I get sleeved.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
