My ops 14th May. I went to a support group in Edinburgh last night and finally decided on the sleeve. The folks there were a fantastic help, a mix of bypass and sleevers and all really down to earth which helped heaps. Im glad the choice is made - that was a nightmare! Starting the preop diet on sat. I'd really love to have a sleeve buddy or two to get through this with!

I've just started mine on Thursday and lost 4lbs so far. Fingers crossed it keeps going that way. It does feel good to be loosing for a change! I'm in Scotland, near Edinburgh. What kind of preop diet are you on?

Hope everything went well and you're doing ok? Speedy recovery!

      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.
