Oh that's so fantastic! Thanks for letting me know. I'm just getting caught up with the entire forum. I just saw the same date and geek'd. I got it today. I've had a lot of bumps and hiccups in my journey, so I'd really like to just move forward smoothly.

I had different instructions.
The liquid diet for me goes like this:
1-9 days -- Clear Liquids (for the full two weeks up to 50 cal a day), one approved food 80-100 cal (i'm just picking pudding), whey Protein Shakes (they have a list of how many you'll need to drink throughout the day to get the required grams of Protein -- in this case 5 Premier Protein shakes)
10-14 days -- same clear liquids, No approved foods, 2 premier protein and 3 impact protein shakes. you have to get that from the hospital store. There's stuff in it to help you heal after surgery.

Then, my surgeon's nurse sent me an email of other things I need to do like labs, EKG, chest X-ray, see my Doctor to clear me for no infection in my lungs and heart, 3 hour long group class with the surgeon, 1 hour group class with weight management.

I've been slacking on taking my Vitamins ahh don't judge. Anyone think this will be a problem? put off surgery?

You're welcome. Sainthood - you're too kind.
You've written poems for other members.
Here's one for you:

Bari-sisters on the scene
Have you met Little Green?
She's cool,
She's alright,
But mess with kakatlady,
She'll call you really shady
Creekimp has your back
When under attack
From f'ed up professional error
Or Bariatric member terror
Then there's FluffyChix
Let's get her in the mix
She gives a humor fix
Along with gentle (hugs)
But she can be your thug
KatFight has been there too
When doctors' associates have no clue
So, yes, puddycat do what you gotta do
Even if you leave some kitty poo
In the end (hee hee) you'll be great
And eat from a little plate
You'll be really lean
Bari-sisters on the scene

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.
