kungfuaaron 27 Posted May 24, 2014 Great to hear from all of you! I am having mine done in Mexico with Dr. Ariel Ortiz. I have butterflies in my empty stomach, I bet, ten times a day. I did my research and picked who I think is best for me. Sooo... here we all go. 2 barbb3 and SliminDownThick reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

danila 0 Posted May 24, 2014 I am scheduled for May 27 in Philadelphia. I am struggling with the much-too-long liquid diet and I am also scared of the surgery! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lylabelle 257 Posted May 24, 2014 Danila I'm sorry you have to do all liquid. My surgeon has done over 3000 sleeves and I don't have to do all liquids until after surgery. I'm on low carb (Atkins style - just had an omelet and bacon yumm). I heard from some you tube videos of people that went to this surgeon we actually get a last supper the night before surgery! Anything we want including alcohol. Yea!! Anyone else get a last supper? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Derouin4 30 Posted May 24, 2014 I'm May 27th! I'm on a 1200 calorie diet for the last week and liquids the day before. I'm slightly nervous, but keeping busy getting my house and family in order. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sh3iz 36 Posted May 24, 2014 May 27- in on day five of a seven day optifast- this "food" is pretty terrible. I did cheat today for the first time but I made a smart choice and have my own chicken broth vs their junk. Oh well Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
