There is a December sleevers group under "groups " and you can access that if you are on a laptop or desktop computer.

Also, you can find a sleeve buddy that shares your December surgery date:

It's free!

Anyone here can post on it and view it so you can find an "accountabilaBuddy" or surgery twin.

You don't need to create an account to post.

Just use the URL to go to the calendar: https://teamup.com/ks5074f51794efefeb

Everything went smoothly, I feel great today. Im surprised I did not have excruciating pain like I thought , I'm So happy. No pain just discomfort that can be tolerated.

Yesterday , Only thing Was nausea and my liquids would not digest felt like it was sitting in my throat and I wanted to chug it up but they say it could happen bec I had a hernia repair . so they suggested I crunch on ice.

So this morning , feeling a lot better. [emoji122]????[emoji122]????[emoji122]????

      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.
