Any March 2018 Sleevers?

I took 1 week. Hoping it's enough

Me too! I don’t have a job that requires heavy lifting or a lot of movement really! So I’m hoping that even if I’m tired, it won’t be too bad.

How many weeks off work is everyone taking?

I'm taking three, only because I have concerns about fatigue. I'll definitely work from home a little the first week and may go into the office part time next second and third weeks. Just gonna play it by ear and see how I feel.

You are doing really well! Looks like you have lost almost 100 pounds already.

Thank you, I was hoping to hit 100 before surgery but looks like I will come up a couple of pounds short. I didn’t want to waste my pre op time, it’s been a long journey to surgery.

I am having the surgery on March 9. I am very nervous/excited also. I would like to have kept my surgery a little more private but have received a lot of advice from a coworker who is a fellow sleever. So instead of assuming they will keep my confidence I have been pretty open about it. Also my mother-in-law, who can't hold Water, saw my obesity surgery folder. Normally I am very private person so this is a little uncomfortable for me, but I am hoping it will help hold me accountable.

I’m March 9th as well! Where are you located?

My son had his 2 half years ago. He had times when it seemed like no weight was coming off. He is now down over 140 lbs.

How's the pre-op diet coming along for everyone? Today was day 8, and I have to say, I had a ton of energy. Today was the first day I actually felt great. And I'm down 8 pounds so far.

I start pre-op liquid diet on Wednesday. Any tips?

[Eventer826 35]

Floridagal1976 that's AWESOME!! I'm day 4. Yesterday was weird. At "lunch," my shake made me a little sick to my stomach. I'm feel like I was just hangry the first two days, now my tummy just feels blah. I'm having a Protein Shake 3 times a day and 2 yogurts. Any suggestions on substitution?

I am on Day 5 and I have a lot more energy too. I'm down about 3-4lbs since Day 1 but I'm on my cycle now, so I'm bloated. Can't wait to see how much I lose in total before surgery!!
