I am scheduled for June 15. I'm excited but nervous. I have told no one. My family is not supportive of the surgery. I have been planning on this for a few years, now.

I'm happy you've found a place with lots of support here! My family doesn't know. Well most of my family doesn't know. But I figured, it's about being healthy and feeling great about myself. As much as we love our family, we can't love them if we are dead or super sick. They will come around!

Anybody not doing a pre up diet? I barely qualify and my surgeon does. Not feel my liver size will be an issue. I am 5ft 5in and 243lbs

Oh and my date is June 9th!transformationtuesday

I'm not required to do a pre-op but I will at least do a 3 day liquid diet prior to my surgery on the 16th.

I'm 5ft. And 203 lbs.

I'm not required to do a pre-op either but I was thinking of doing a whole 30 a week before so that I could detox from sugar and the liquid detox wouldn't be as bad.

I guess from all I've read on these forums is that it really depends on your surgeon and what diet they like to follow, I am June 10th, and pretty much 2 Protein Shakes my choice of Breakfast, lunch or dinner, and one high Protein low carb meal for 14 days prior, then liquids including protein for about two weeks post, then two weeks soft, then last two reintegrating regular foods, I think from everything I have learned is the most important things to remember is, lots protein (also read elsewhere that high protein leads to faster recovery time) and go lean, hydrate hydrate hydrate, always keeps me thinking "Adkin's diet when I see all the recipes and foods I'm allowed ????

I haven't told anyone about my decision except my very supportive husband. I decided in Dec. To move forward with this and I didn't want to have to explain-justify my decision to my brother, mom, best friends,coworkers or family. Lots of servers never tell anyone! This is for me, not them and I'm sticking by that a week away from sleeve date! Everyone is different...only your heart can answer this for you! ????

My date is Monday, June 15 which is two weeks from today. I started my Protein Shake diet today and go for my last pre op appointment today. I'm anxious for this and very excited for this to really happen. I know this will be long journey, but I have a lot of support in my personal life, my professional life and from the community here on this message board. :)

      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.
