Anyone get sleeved in May?

[CelesteMarie 129]

I wasn't forced to do a preop diet but I prepared for the surgery for a while so I practiced things. I gave up soda and caffeine before the surgery so I wouldn't get headache withdrawals. I also practiced not eating for emotional reasons, which was hard.

My surgery date is May 9th this coming Monday. I would love to keep in touch with people who are getting sleeves around the same time as well. I am currently in the 2nd week of my Doctor's required Liver shrink liquid diet. Can you say hard?

How are you doing so far? Did you have any pre-op requirements?

Is there a way we can create a group of the may sleevers to compare notes?? It would be great for us all to keep in contact!

Because I am not sure that I am disciplined enough to eat sensibly afterwards. Not sure I can cope without my comfort foods. Worried about excess skin. Angry that I can't just diet to lose weight like "normal" people. etc, etc

What did you decide? I was sleeved on the 5th and I have had my rough days however I am down 20 lbs, off diabetes and blood pressure meds! I go to a local support group once a week and I also talk on here. I may eventually add in some therapy but that is just to take her of me mentally after already choosing to take care of myself physically. Its not going to be easy but after 8 days I am feeling better and lookomg forward to the future.

My surgery is May 10th and I would really like to keep in touch with other people getting sleeved in may and be able to share our journeys.

I had mine may 2nd woo! No regrets. I was insanely scared and having horrible anxiety but I had been putting my surgery off for a year so finally just did it and I am so happy I did. I've already lost 14 pounds. Would love to hear how you did! Good vibes your way.

This is my last weekend before I begin pre-op diet (only for 3 days before my sleeve surgery, which will be 5/24). I don't want to go overboard, but I will be drinking vino and coffee this weekend, two of my favorite beverages. I know that once I'm sleeved, those will be no-nos, at least for the 1st several months.

I am not looking forward to the headaches that will come from caffeine withdrawal and the liquid pre-op fast, but since I'm come this far on my journey....ONWARD AND UPWARD!

Maybe we can create a closed group on fb?

Just got my surgery date this morning, for May 25th. Pre-Op low carb/high Protein diet starts on the 18th (though I have been following it already).

I've been on the liver reduction diet for pre-op for 4 1/2 weeks now. 26 lbs down and my sleeve is Monday.
