Hi everyone, I thought I might make a list with everyone's dates next to their names to post here so we can keep track of who is doing what, and when, as we try to support each other. If you have a surgery date and you're happy to be included in the list- please PM me and I'll sort one out and post it here in a little while. I'm sure i can keep updating it too :)

That would be great!!! I'm new here from the June Sleevers group. I went to surgery June 7th but the anesthesiologist messed up my intubation and I couldn't have my surgery. I have to wait a month for the steroids to clear my system so my new date is...July 9th! I'm also changing hospitals so this time I'm going to Dallas. Since I've done the 14 days of pre-ops, I may be able to help with your questions.

Please add Giselle for July 9th with Dr. Kim in Dallas. THANKS!

G.

I'm scheduled for July 27th in Chicago. I'm so glad I found this thread! I'm struggling with "food funerals" and am trying to move past that stage. I'm starting a diet tomorrow, and am going to start working on some of the behaviors I'll need to be successful in the long run (no drinking with meals, eating slowly, tracking my food, etc.)

Smoggy- thanks so much dear! I'm July 3rd in San Diego with Dr. Horgan.

Giselle- welcome! Why are you changing hospitals? I can't believe the anesthesiologist made such a terrible mistake. How are you recovering from that?

I'm going in tomorrow for a weigh in and and manometry study, then my liquid diet starts Tuesday. Question for everyone...does your program have the same pre-op plan for everyone who is having the sleeve surgery or does it vary by starting weight, gender, health status, etc?

I'm July 10th, in Woodstock IL with Dr. Heydari. :)

My surgeon has the same pre-op program for everyone - regardless of surgery type, weight, etc... 10 days, choice of either Bariatrix or Carnation Breakfast Essentials shakes, unlimited sugar-free Clear liquids, up to 200 cal. of fruit/veg from a list per day.

Started my liquid diet today and woke up with a cold :( I hope it's short lived and doesn't effect my surgery date.

      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.
