I'm getting sleeved on March 22nd with Dr. Lopez in TJ, MX. Is anyone else getting sleeved around that time, especially in MX? Looking for sleeve buddies near and far!

I'm currently scheduled for March 13 but I may have to push it forward a week which will put my surgery in the same week as yours. I'm going to Cabrera/Valenzueala. I'm having my procedure at Mi Doctor and will be staying at the Marriott.

I will be at Mi Doctor also, so if you wind up going around the same time, we should definitely be in touch! Even if we don't go around the same time, I'll be your March sleeve buddy from afar!

That sounds great! Where are you located?

Me? I'm in Seattle, but like I said to SerendipityHappens, I'm happy to be sleeve buddies from afar! Even if we don't get it done at exactly the same time, it sounds like we're all going to have March in common, so we can experience the joys (and possible frustrations) of being newly sleeved at roughly the same time :)

Currently scheduled for March 28th if insurance approves! If not I am going to go the self-pay route and try to go to MX around that time. Either way I am getting sleeved one way or another in March dangit LOL.

      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.
