May 3rd! Starting my pre op diet The 24th which is weird because my surgeon told me and the nurse a week, but she wrote the 24th which technically is ten days not 7, but I'm going to start it anyways just in case.

Ugh! So lucky with no pre op diet! Definitely no fun! Sadly still 10 more days to go. Hope it gets better!


But you are going to rock it after that [emoji109]

Hi my op is booked for may 8th. Feeling very lonely as I have just moved to my husbands town and don't really know anyone. This journey is very scary when you can't sit down with a girlfriend and talk about it as much as I love my husband he is a great support but sometimes you just need another girl. Anyway wishing everyone luck I really can't wait to start living my life again. X

You got all the girlfriends ya need right here. Just text. I get alerts right off and answer unless I am asleep. You all are my life line.

I don't know about anyone else but I am glad for the liquid diet. My bmi is 58 I think and I am hoping that shrinking my stomach and liver will give them more room to do the laperscopic surgery. Would much rather drink my diet for 2 weeks than have the open surgery.

Hey everyone...I just created a Facebook page for our May group. It is May 2017 sleevers. Send me a join request. This thread is so big and hard to follow. Hopefully that will be easier! Jessica

I did a search but could not find the group

Never mind, I am assuming you closed it, I did put in a request for the other page :)

Anyways, I am scheduled for my band removal/sleeve surgery on May 5, I have a strict liquid only 800 calorie 2 week pre op diet. Today was day one and it sucked:(

I searched 2017 sleevers then looked for the month. It came up under pages tab.

      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.
