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.

      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.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
