Me! March 19! Been in the sleeve process since middle of September! Have lost 25 pounds on pre-op diet!

[HypnotizingHazel 39]

Working my booty of to get all preop testing done. I'm aiming for March 7th, 2013. I teach HS so that would give me 9 days off during Spring Break. I've been bugging everyone to get on the ball with testing! My sleep study is scheduled for Monday. They are scheduling the Upper GI, Stress Echo, and nutrition counseling for later this week. One month supervised diet follow up on Feb. 23.

Surgeon said to start Pre-Op Diet 2Weeks out. that would be Feb. 21. That's Thursday. do I go ahead and start?

What kind of pre op diet are you on..I am just curious because everyone seems to have something different.. I am 3 weeks of liquids..and its tough..but the prize at the end is worth it..good luck to you

Hi pammie37

I'm on 2 weeks Protein Shake diet, I can have 3 shakes a day and 2 cups of veggies/salad.I can also have diet jelly and diet soft drink. Today is my second day of the diet n so far so good, of course I'd like to be eating yummy foods all day long , but let's face it that's what got me in this position to start with.... Lol

So you've already started the liquid diet, keep strong, soon you will be in your skinny jeans!

Keep me posted on your progress

Surgery date March 5. Just ended my first full day of liquids plus one "small meal" (whatever that means.) So it's only now that everything is starting to hit me hard. I am skeptical. I have gone so many years of my life without being able to control my bad eating habits that I just wonder if this is even going to work. I am getting the operation done at the same hospital that I work at and my big mouth brother, who also works there, has told a few people about what I'm getting done. My department is 99% male and I'm a little uncomfortable and don't really want to talk about it. But there you have it, now everyone knows whether I like it or not. I also just weighed myself last night and I have gained 10 pounds or so over the past month which is freaking me out.

This is my last chance. And I'm scared. But I'm not scared of the operation by any means, I'm scared of this big change I have to make in my life. I also wonder if I'll ever, ever be able to eat vegetables, salads, fruit, and all the other stuff that I really hate, let alone grow to enjoy them. But I have to try, I have I do this.

Whatever.

Miss Fae, if this is going to work for you, you seriosly need to change your outlook. Dont think of anyone else but yourself. You are doing this for yourself. Who gives a rip what anyone else thinks. You are worth this and will do fantastic if you have a good feeling and have self compassion. I haven't even started my liquid yet (tomorrow is day one for me YAY) and already I am on cloud 9. I took a big step yesterday and informed my office of 7 what I was doing on March 7th. It was a breakthrough moment for me. Prior to that I was embarrassed that I was going this route, but after I said it, it was like I grew taller. This is my life and I am making it better for my family and myself, but mostly for myself. If they can't handle it, well then they must be jealous that I have the guts to do this.

Give yourself a break girl, smile all over yourself, and enjoy the new you as it emerges over the next year. Don't let anyone bring you down, least of all yourself. Be super proud that YOU made this decision. Good luck Sweetie.
