Autumnrain1908 76 Posted July 6, 2013 August 7th!! I have been on this forum for hours a day just trying to be more informed. I'm going to start shopping for my liquids. I am required to do a 2 week liquid diet. What about everyone else and what liquids will you drink? My nutritionist said anything with a straw. 2 serenity1959 and Gojogo reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

debs003 3 Posted July 7, 2013 Hi, I'm new here today. I am having the operation on 19th Aug in Windsor U.k. Very excited about the future. I've not told anyone apart from my partner who is very supportive. It's not very well known here and I fear negative conversations. I'm getting married April 2015 and so looking forward to being a slim bride. Lots to look forward to.

Janice T 8 Posted July 7, 2013 I don't have a set date yet' date=' but I was told end of July or early August. I am wondering if there are others like me? ... I have been heavy for the last 15 years (yikes!) since my first pregnancy. I eat Kosher and heavy veggie healthy small meals. I don't drink coffee or soda. I don't smoke. Yet, I am still 100+ pounds over weight! Anyone else in this same boat? I am nervous and excited, and can't wait to get the surgery over with to move forward. I am worried about having a high Protein diet? Is this hard for anyone? What are some suggestions? <img src='http://www.bariatricpal.com/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='' />[/quote'] I have been overweight off and on since I was in the first grade. I drink very few sodas, have tried to eat healthy but just cannot lose weight any more. I lost 155 lbs. between 05 and 08 but have regained 100 of those pounds. Now I truly detest my body. Have met with the surgeon and am waiting to see what insurance will do. I must lose 10 lbs. and have a stress test before I go back. 1 Gojogo reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SeaGirl 193 Posted July 8, 2013 It was the same for me I started the process on June 9 and the earliest dates Dr. Alvarez had were in August i chose 9th. I have heard nothing but great things about him. My mom was also sleeved with Dr. Alvarez 6 years ago and has done great. I'll see you there! 1 Amanda D Greeson reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gojogo 55 Posted July 8, 2013 Hi, I'm new as well. I'm living in the UAE but traveling back home to the UK for my op. I'm having my consultation on 26th with Dr Mannur at the Spire Roding Hospital. I have a couple of friends who have been sleeved by him. Hoping to have the op on 15/16th August a little nervous. I will die if I can't have it so fingers and toes crossed. My name is Joanne :-) 2 Dannipo and debs003 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
