@leo you don't have a pre op diet to follow? Mine is for 10 days pre op. Low carb, low fat. Basically grilled chicken, green veggies, some citrus fruits, fish, Protein shakes...

This pre-op diet would be a dream ^ I have to go on an all liquid diet 14 days before my surgery. I am totally freaking out!

I just got approved and notified of my March 7th date. I am so excited I can hardly breath. Start on the liquid in six days. Anyone else on the 7th. Would love a partner in crime.

Is it just me or does it seem like it will feel "more real" once we have to start that liquid pre op diet? Lol march 6th just feels so far away right now.

I agree with you. But I came home yesterday and found my Pre op diet paperwork in the mail. I have to start on Monday. It just got real for me.

Thanks everybody. I think we have a good group of March sleevers. This is going to be fun. Matt I agree that when you get the diet stuff it truly makes it real. I am going to be on fusion I think for my Protein Drinks. I already did a couple days of testing to see if I can handle this and it was ok. I know that two weeks is a far cry from two days, but I have wanted this for so long and I know I will tolerate it.

It is going to be a long six days till start. LOLOL

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
