I am set to have surgery around the last week in July. I am 29. I am currently 5 foot 7 and 261 so I am looking for someone with similar stats or surgery date to talk to and become friends with to go through this journey with together :)

I am 29 years old, 5 foot 7 and having my sleeve done July 14th. I am also around the same weight (264). :-)

I should be having my surgery around that same time as well. Fingers crossed that everything works out with insurance and I get approved with no issues. I'm a little taller than you are but our weight is close to the same. I'm in Florida and will be having surgery with Dr. Thomas Bass in Fort Myers.

Hi everyone, My name is Brittney and I am 25. I am 5'5 and my highest weight was 263, my weight at my first weigh in was 245 and I am 237 right now. I was required to reach 238 before the end of my 6 month program. I have Kaiser insurance and live in VA and july 20 will be my last class. I am hoping for surgery around august but i'm not sure how fast it will go. I have done all of the required testing, and studies that they asked. So now im just waiting to be done with the classes. It has been painful waiting, I am so ready for july to get here. I would love for to meet other people who are in this stage. I have instagram @brittney_blive and Facebook if you search brittney ifill. Im so excited and anxious.

Hi there! It looks like I will be late July/early August. My insurance has changed a few things so my date was pushed back. I'm 35...5'6 and weigh 267. I am so ready!

      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.
