A group of us last month started a private Facebook group for June-July-August sleevers. We closed the group after 50 people so we would be able to stay small enough to keep it personal. After us another group started and I believe they did the same. So you guys may want to think about starting a private fb group for you all to stay in touch and support each other. I love my fb group and we have phone numbers in our phones so our family members will text someone in the group to let everyone else know their surgery went well and they then communicate it to the rest of the group. I really love our private group so I am suggesting you guys think about doing the same. Best of luck!

How can I get into the group? I've looked for it on Facebook and don't see anything with that name.

As far as I know you just type this in the search bar "JULY 2016 SLEEVERS" and it should come up? You can also try this: july2016sleevers@groups.facebook.com or this https://www.facebook.com/groups/july2016sleevers/

Thank you I just joined

I'm currently waiting on approval from the insurance company, then I start the liquid diet, so I'm looking at sometime early July!

      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.
