Checking in' date=' looking forward to my surgery next Tuesday the 18th! Who else is on the 18th? I know some have been moved back and some have joined us.

I'm doing the preop diet this week, high high Protein but not just liquids. Everything is from my drs office food store, mostly shakes, bars, and a decent "real" boxed dinner like a frozen dinner. I'm so surprised that I haven't felt hungry eating 800-900 calories a day! This protien stuff is where it's at for feeling unhungry.

I have a sense of peace and calm, no more anxiety. I feel very confident in my doctors skill and the rest I have placed in Gods hands, and a peace has grown in me, so I am just ready! Dreading the 2 weeks do liquid diet more than the surgery:(

Let me know how all my 6/18 partners are doing, and good luck everyone!![/quote']

I am on my pre-op diet also. Mine is completely full liquids for 7 days and then my surgery is also on the 18th! So excited for all of us!! I am down almost 9 pounds since starting Tuesday!

Thanks for the good wishes. I've lost 12lbs on pre op diet of Optifast. Haven't been hungry at all. It's a lot of Protein. It puts your body into ketosis really fast then you drop all the Water weight and start burning fat.

Hi my surgery is on the 17th in TJ with Dr. Lopez. pre-op diet has been really great. I used really great tasting Protein Shakes from Syntrax Nectar I mix with silk almond milk. I really like the strawberry Kiwi I mix with banana flavor (same brand) and the fuzzi navl and fruit punch was good as well http://www.vitalady.com/cgi-bin/commerce.cgi?search=action&keywords=syntraxnectar&template=Templates/sr_syntrax_nectar.html I am very nervous because I'm going by myself, but excited. Now I have to go all Clear Liquids for the next 3 days then recovery time. I've stocked up on supplies, and lots of apple juice and crystal lite. I will say Constipation has been a issue but I'm dealing. I have lost 10lbs so far was hoping for more but its a start. Is any one else going to TJ the next week? I wish all of you much success and my prayers are with you.

I had my surgery on June 4th with Dr. Perkins at Womack Army Medical Center in Fort Bragg, NC. Today is post-op day 10 and we had a big going away party for my hubby who is deploying tomorrow and I was going all day long and feel great. I was worried about overdoing it, but I was surprised at my energy level even though I am still only on full liquids. It was a little hard when everyone was eating, but I just volunteered to feed my 14 month old nephew during dinner and that was a nice distraction.

Hey all...surgery was the 12....feeling pretty good...stayed in the hospital 2 days....doc said I could go home in 1 but since my pain anf nausea weren't under control he wanted to keep me another day and thays what I wanted too. He released me friday the 14th...feeling pretty good. The Qball really helps with internal pain. How is everyone doing on liquids? Im having a hard time....my tummy seems to like warm drinks rather then ice cold. I start my Vitamins today...wish me luck....good luck and happy skinny everyone

Was sleeved on the 4th of June. Doing okay. Weird having no appetite whatsoever and having a little problem making myself drink the Protein Shakes, but i keep trying!! Still on full liquids pending visit to my surgeon on Tuesday where I believe he'll move me along to soft foods. Had a little problem with low blood pressure, which I also had after surgery requiring a second night stay, but feeling good . Best decision I ever made! Per my scale, I've lost 13 pounds since the day before surgery. That will make 95lbs total, 82 pre-op and this 13! I have a long way to go, but I'm headed there!!!
