I was supposed to start my pre-op diet on Aug.30th but haven't. It's not a liquid diet just cutting out carbs so I guess I'll start tomorrow with the holidays being over. I'm nervous, excited, anxious, and a whole lot more but I'm going to leave it to God. I've noticed I've been on this website way too much lately, lol. It's addicting.

I'm somewhat ready. I don't have a long pre op- just 48 hours but I'm also starting on Wednesday too. So tomorrow is my food funeral - ok I lied. I have had a six month food funeral . So I'm ready

I'm September 11th have done a week of pre op shake diet(with a few minor cheats) over the headaches and weakness down 12lbs!!!! Only 1 more week to go!

Im also 12th, I am very excited and scared all at the same time. I am on day 7 of 14 for pre op diet, also with just a few slips. I have lost 11 lbs so far I am hoping for another 9 by next wed but the weigjt loss may have slowed down some not sure yet. I was averaging 1-2 lbs a day so we will see. Good luck to all the sept 12 sleevers. I pray we all have a safe and fast surgery/ recovery.

I am ready but i am also nervous. I know that GOD is going to take care of me because he aint through with me yet. I am pre-admitted and HUNGRY...lol. My surgery is Sept. 17. My family was/is not happy with me doing this but they are supporting me because they know that i have made up my mind. I have learned a lot about myself during this pre-op diet

1. i am truly addicted to food and will have to work on my mental everyday(as i do now)

2. I know that i have strong will power and will be able to get through this successfully

3. i will not be able to do this without my surgery.. i know that it will really aide in my weightloss....

4. I AM PRAYED UP AND READY!!!

I go Sept 11th... My doctor said we didn't have to do a formal pre op diet, just to do whatever diet we've been most successful on thus far... I stopped eating solids today, just in case. Hopefully by Tuesday I'll be completely cleaned out and my liver will have gotten small enough to not cause any issues.
