Summer 2018 Surgery Buddies Check In Here!

[Frustr8 7,886]

And that's the way it turned out for me, I met Dr Needleman the same day I was assigned my surgery date. Next time I see,him,will be in the OR when they wheel,me in. I'm silly,but I ,wish I could walk in instead of,being passively pushed. I am romanicizing it but I'd like to show I'm not being forced. or such but making this choice actively to have it done.😛😷😛

I have met with the surgeon from the very start, I went in for the sleeve and then through out discussion ended up with a surgery soon for the bypass, I just think the bypass is more intense as far as surgery goes, anyone else feel a certain way about either, opinions would be great!

I feel so inadequate now not knowing my calorie count... [emoji20]

Ours looks similar but I think my shakes have more fat, or some of the brands do. I have a mix of brands because flavor boredom.
How soon did you go into ketosis to shrink the liver? Are there any signs?
Anyone know?! (anxious now that I think I am doing this wrong!!!)

During my pre op diet, I never went into Ketosis according to the pee sticks, but I lost 13 pounds and the surgeon said my liver looked good. If you follow that diet, you’ll be in good shape.

Newbie here. I'm all set for surgery on Aug. 2nd! I'm anxious, but excited to take this step. At times I kinda wish I had taken my endochrinologist's advice and done this 3 years ago, but I wasn't in the right mindset then. I am SO ready now!

Mine is the same day

I had my second endoscopy yesterday and my ulcer has cleared up! I also had my ultra sound, sleep study and a test to see if i have any blood clots. All was good so I should be hearing about my schedule date anytime now! I want to get it done asap as thinking of changing jobs and don't want to start over with insurances!

Sounds to me like you have tied up those ends very nicely. There are a couple August groups also and I started one for the month of September, so no matter where you land you will be among friends. And I have been a proud member of this one since YLime started it, have met so many new friends here and happy to make your acquaintance as well. Please hang around,ask any questions you like, and please know you are among friends here!😝👍😝🌈
