New week and today is my first day without the COFFEE... so so so sad, but doing well so far if I can get to Thursday I know I will be ok. Also I order a scale and it has arrived was opened and used, it is a start right? my wondercup measuring cup also arrived and looks amazing plan to start using that asap. I have been good about getting good carbs through veg and I think I am getting better with not drinking as well. All in all a couple set backs and some successes. how is everyone else doing? I am still being bad and eating what I want while I can. I just got my shakes that I will begin having when I start my 2 week preop diet next week. I am living it up with the caffeine too because I will stopping that on next week as well. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Also, did I mention this is the first surgery I have ever had? Ya, I am freaking out! But still very excited. I haven't started my pre-op diet yet but I know it's coming. I feel like I should be asking all these questions to my surgeon but I keep drawing a blank. I just, for some reason, never thought this day would come. Okay so, does anyone have a tips or catchy emotional support poster saying to share? Hello and welcome! I am getting sleeved on November 6th and the fear is starting to kick in too but we can do this! 1 sarahe reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Anyone else starting liquid around the same time? I'm nervous about surviving 10 days of liquids. Would love to have someone in the same position to chat with and support with! My surgery is on November 6th and I will be starting my 2 week pre-op diet on October 22nd. I will also be stopping caffeine on the 22nd too so I know I will be so much fun to be around. When I told my husband this he asked if I could go stay with my mom during that time. I know he was mostly joking Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
