My date is 9/6!!. I started the process on 7/27. I start my liquid diet on 8/23. I have a preop appt on 8/29. I'm 37 and live in NC. I have 2 kids with birthdays in September so I hope to be up and at it soon after. I'm still in shock as I expected this to be a longer process but here we are! It would be cool to pair up with someone : )

Thanks marrse! When is your birthday? I'm guessing no cake for us???????? My surgeon requires at least 12days with Protein shakes, Jello , juices broth. Etc. to shrink liver. It's gonna be trying but have a good chance to lose a few lbs for head start!

I was approved last Thursday after a long awaited appeal. My final appointment with the surgeon is Aug. 30, and I will get my surgery date. They said the surgery date will be about 3 weeks from then. So, I am assuming I will be a September sleever!!!

Oops... I was in the wrong place too... September 2015!

Here I am, 11 days from my sleeve surgery- September 2/16!! The sweetness of the shakes and bars are torture and so far, I haven't been able to get through my daily intake of it. Anyone else having trouble? And any September Sleevers from Canada??

      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.
