ARE THERE ANY OCTOBER/NOVEMBER 2015 SLEEVERS OUT THERE?



Recommended Posts

I'm 90% certain that my surgery date will be Nov. 25th! I think it's a fitting date seeing as it's the day before Thanksgiving. Partly because it's the day before millions of people will be gorging themselves on traditional dishes and partly because I have a history of having terrible Thanksgivings.

I'll be getting sleeved on October 5th! I've been through all appointments. All I have left is a preop class at the hospital and preadmissuon labs and blood work the week before.

My doctor doesn't require liquid diet preop for BMI under 50 but I'm going to follow a modified one anyway, I think.

I'd love a buddy or several with similar dates! I'm not on Facebook, so I'm a little bummed I can't join that group.

I've finished all my pre op testing, psych evaluation, and on oct 1 will make my 3rd month and last food journal so my dr will schedule my surgery on the first and than submit to my insurance. Someone asked earlier about why oct is backed up. I see dr. Mcdevitt at coastal Carolina bariatrics in summerville, sc ((he's amazing!!)) and he only does surgeries on Tuesdays. ????

Hi there. I just received my surgery date and it is Monday Oct 19-2015. I am very nervous but excited. I am having the gastric sleeve. I just ordered the Vitamins from Bariatric Advantage. My doctor is Dr. Aaron Baggs. this will be at the Richmond California Kaiser. I need to find a good tasting Protein shake. I just ordered some one ounce tupperware containers to help me as well. And to help measure out my Water.

Looking forward to a healthier me.

Hi, I just signed up about five minutes ago and haven't had a chance to set up my profile. I am set to have surgery late October mid November and happen to be from the Rio Grande Valley, about fifteen minutes from Mexico lol would love to have a positive partner on this journey. Any questions just ask. Hope to hear from you.

Hello there!

I'm hoping to have my sleeve op in November here in the UK, is it ok for me to join? I've lost 4lbs & got another 10lbs to go before i can book my date. The only people that know that I'm having a sleeve is my Mum & my partner, it'd be nice to have people to chat to on the run up. I'm excited & nervous all rolled into one!

      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.
