My surgery date is Jan. 5th. I'm scared as I could be! Pre-op starts next Sunday the 21st. I think the reality is setting in!

@@ojibway Oh that's normal! Soon it will be over and you will be concentrating that nervousness on learning your new "baby"! Hang in there!

Hello

Good Luck I was scheduled to have the gastric sleeve surgery on Thursday, (12/18/14) but didn't lose the required 10 lbs. I had a set back. Please advise me what does your pr-op diet consist of. I did the sugar free Jello, pudding, exercised, and sugar free pudding. I had a weigh in yesterday and was very disappointed. This is my second delay. I have been rescheduled to go back into the doctor's office on Jan 5th. Help I want to have this so much. I was so looking forward to having it this week. I started the process at the beginning of the year.

Help, Help, Help. I have become very depressed.

Mine is also scheduled for Jan. 5, 2015!! Twenty-one days to go... Isn't it a great way to REALLY begin the new year? New Year:NEW BEGINNINGS!! ‼️THIS IS THE YEAR‼️ No more "Ooooh, that looks/sounds delicious. I'll try one (or seven)..., followed by "Nah, I give up. I can't do it." Look how far we have all come in 2014!!

Yet, I know my own anxieties are knocking on the door to that vault in the brain, because I haven't brought my * Goddess Sized* clothes to a consignment store, Salvation Army/Catholic Charities, or given them to friends.

I keep telling myself *Yeah, keep this/that/the other (summer and fall clothes) to give her, and her, and her,* when that thought is really that old comfort-zone frenemy - "Giving In to Old Habits" - rumbling around back there. Those old, longtime learned behaviors are difficult to dispel, no matter how resistant some are to change.

Congratulations, and I will be thinking of you on Jan. 5th.......pre anesthesia. Yay to all of us!!!

I can have three Protein shakes a day, all the green veggies I want and of course Jello, popsicles.

I got a date of January 5th too, but the lady at the hospital told me she is gonna call next week or by the 29th with a definite time. So when she calls back with a time that's when I start my diet. It's so real right now!!!!

My date is January 5th also. Started my pre-op liquid diet on Sunday the 21st. I'm doing pretty good with it. It gets easier as the days go by. Good luck to you!
