My initial date is January, and hopefully still will be. Unfortunately ran into some trouble. During pre surgery tests, a problem with my thyroid surfaced. Had to do a biopsy but it came back as failed so have to go through it again with the doc that would do surgery if it turns out to be cancer. So for now, just trying to stay positive and take it a day at a time. I so hope I'm on the surgery table for the sleeve in January with all of you! Well not hoping ur all on the table with me, but you know what I mean! =]

January 23rd for me!!!!! I wish it were sooner as I find myself falling into the "eat while you can" trap daily and don't want to put on another 10 pounds before I start my pre-op diet. Anyone else having a hard time with this?

I keep eating like crazy...staying within the same 5 lb range of weight but it is ridiculous how much i keep eating ...especially knowing that the holidays are here and i eat more then anyway :-(

Me too! I do fine when I'm at work and all I have are the healthy things I packed but then I get home and I feel so hungry and since I'm all done with my 6-month pre-op program I've been overeating. Usually not horrible stuff, but big portions of it.

I'm having a rough time with the eating issues too. Today i have tried to start my self imposed prepreop diet as i go back to dr dec 14 n i need to see a loss at that visit. Im so scared they will delay my surgery so im trying so hard to lose a few lbs more. They will have me on a liquid diet for a few wks after my nxt visit. Im so nervous i just want to get to the other side.

I don't have my surgery date set yet, but come cash or high Water, I'm doing it. I'm revising from the band. I have to have an EGD on 1/4/13 to see what kind of damage if any my band has done. Hoping the insurance will pay for the revision since they payed for the band, but not holding my breath. I'm so ready to do this!! So miserable and unhappy wih my weight. Good luck to all of you with early January dates!! Congrats!

      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.
