Evie__82 4 Posted February 8, 2017 So I'm booked in for my gastric sleeve on the 14th March. Nervous excitement. Meeting dietician next week for get the pre op diet. She reckons for me it'll be 2 weeks. I've already started cutting out things on a weekly basis. So hopefully by the time I get to the beginning of March the pre op diet won't be such a shock. Anyone else booked for March? Would be great to have a sleeve buddy. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jessifreehugs 22 Posted February 8, 2017 I will probably be joining you in March. I'm waiting on insurance approval at the moment, and it's basically taking forever (3 days so far lol). I was hoping for Feb, but paperwork submission had some hangups, and it doesn't seem feasible now. I've been having food funerals in preparation for the coming weeks, culminating in a group of my friends meeting up for sushi this weekend. Then, I'm off the carbs officially. I've already cut out sodas, snacky foods, and coffee. 1 Evie__82 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
