Hello Everyone!

My name is Alia, and I will be having my sleeve done 23 August 2012. I am very nervous, yet excited at the same time. I cannot wait until the day arrives, so that I can begin my new life.

Today is the first day of my 2 week liquid diet. I am doing great so far.

Is anyone else going to Mexico for their sleeve the same time I am? Nice to meet everyone, feel free to say hello, and add me to your August sleeve list.

Newbie to the site, but loving all this info I get from everyone. I'm an August sleever as well. Aug 21st is my big day with Dr Srikanth at St Francis Hospital in Federal Way, WA. So so excited, thankfully nerves haven't kicked in just yet. But I can only imagine how I will feel on surgery day.

@ sweetqui, you and I have the same surgery date. Wishing you tons of luck. I hope everyone here has a successful journey.

Has anyone started their liquid diets yet? I have, and gosh, I never felt so empty before. I have been trying to fill up on Protein Shakes and broth. After I eat, at that particular time, it does fill me up, then shortly within 4 or 5 hours later, I am empty again. I hope everyone else is doing well with their diets whilst preparing for their surgeries. I am so thrilled about this journey that I am about to embark on. I cannot tell everyone enough, how long that I have waited for this upcoming event to arrive. Does everyone else have the butterflies yet?

[pinkbwlr16 20]

I start my liquid diet tomorrow. My dr requires it 10 days before surgery. I did this a couple weeks ago as well and definitely had the empty feeling too. I drink a ton and ton of Water to keep me full and try to keep myself occupied so I'm not thinking about the whole not eating part. I don't do much broth because it actually makes me feel sick after I drink it. Which is weird cause most people say it helps with the nauseousness and keeps them full. But then again when have I not been an odd ball. Lol my dr said if I get that hungry I can always add in a 4th Protein Shake. No butterflies yet but I know they will be coming. Getting so so excited. ????

I've been putting on weight since the birth of my first child 20 years ago. Things really got out of hand when I seperated from the military in 2006.
