Looking for an August or near sleeve buddy. I have tried several times to post and it would not let me.

I am in San Antonio getting my sleeve on August 10th if my insurance approves. I am waiting patiently but I just want to know. I have started preparing. I gave up carbonated caffeine sodas- I am a week out now. I am eating yogurt to get use to it and find my favorites. I bought a shaker bottle for my Protein Drink and ordered the trial pack of Unjury. My preop diet starts 7/27, one week from today. Tell me about your preop plans and surgery date. I can use any tips you have to offer.

I am totally new here and started my 2 week pre-op diet today. My sleeve is on August 3. I am a nervous wreck, but there is a little part of me that is excited. Would love to talk to people in the same spot as me!

I "officially" started my 2 week pre-op liquid diet today. However...I did a "trial run" last week just to see how difficult it would be and pinpoint my triggers. It actually went pretty well and gave me some idea of the shakes I actually enjoy and not just tolerate. I tried some mocha shakes first thing in the morning, a strawberry/banana for "breakfast"...broth for lunch and dinner along with 2 shakes. It helps to keep busy and/or fast forward through all of the food commertials on TV! :D I have figured out cooking is not much fun when trying to stick to a liquid diet. But on a good note my honey has decided to cook for himself or eat out for a few weeks. :)

You all are on the right track.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
