August Sleevers?! Where Ya's At?



Recommended Posts

I'm an august sleever! August 18th with Dr. Alvarez in piedro negres Mexico! Bought my plane ticket today and getting very excited! I'm 5'9" and weigh between 215-220lbs. I would be happy to lose 45lbs. Thrilled to lose 60-70lbs! No pre-op diet for me but I am trying NOT to have last supper syndrome this far out (making excuses to eat what I shouldn't because I know I won't be able to after surgery).

I'm an August Sleever!!! :) Scheduled for August 13th by Dr. McMahon in Seattle, WA.

I'm 27 years old and have 100-125 lbs to loose.

I'm beginning the anxious stage of pre-op, but I have a partner in crime. My husband just had the Roux-en-Y done by Dr. McMahon 3 weeks ago.

EEEKKKK!! Just looked at the calendar and it's only 26 days until the party gets started...and I'm going FIRST. wahhhh!!! ;(

I'm starting to get a few butterflies every time I think about it, but as I'm determined as ever. Heck, I found out yesterday that we got a contract on our house and we will close on Aug 9th. Perfect excuse to back out and reschedule, but I'm going for it! Looks like I will be busy packing before surgery, so maybe I won't have too much time to get anxious.

Let's do this!

I found a great app on Google Play called Body Monitor. It lets you track your height, weight, body fat and body measurements. It stores all the ones you mentioned, including extra ones for your legs and arms. I like it because as soon as you enter your measurements, it shows you how much you've lost. It has a calendar interface so you can scroll back and see where you started very easily. If you're comfortable with tech, you might want to check it out.

Hi all! I am the very last of the month I see! August 31 with Dr. Kelly in MX. Not a friendly office environment so time off work is difficult - I have to use the labor day holiday for one of my days. Sure hope I'm up to returning ASAP because I don't have a choice.

I feel so behind reading all of your posts' date=' I am truly not thinking about it nearly so much and had not planned to be ordering the Protein or packing until a week or so out! Or in my case ordering online as I sit in my bed post-op! :)

Not sure yet if my husband will be joining me, I waiver on wether or not I even want him to, just that I want him to want to!

I'm glad to meet you all![/quote']

I'm Dr Kelly 8/23. I will be going alone as well, and I'm ok with that! Having the Labor day holiday is why I picked my date too. 1 less vacation day!

      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.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
