LadiSani 59 Posted September 15, 2015 Seems SO far away!!! I know it's really not but it feels like it is. Any tips on what I should be doing to prepare in the meantime? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tg273957 28 Posted September 15, 2015 Yes, walk, walk, walk. Learn to eat meals in 30 minutes or more, walk, drinking lots of Water but sipping, walking is good and oh yeah, add walking to your daily routine. I cannot stress walking enough. It will make things easier for you after surgery. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ms89 9 Posted September 20, 2015 Here's what you should do in the mean time, slow down and enjoy those last few weeks with your nice, big stomach! I know it sounds crazy, but you'll never ever be able to enjoy food the way you do now. Don't get me wrong, I LOVE my sleeve and I love that I've lost 24 lbs in the past 2 weeks, but it's not an easy road ahead. Take some time and enjoy going to dinner with your friends, take some big bites and don't chew very well! Eat sharp things like chips and salsa and carby and rich things like pancakes. Do everything that I can't and enjoy yourself before your surgery! Don't go too crazy, but live it up while you're waiting because you're about to have the rest of your life to be sleeved. Have fun!
