OK, messed up on where to post yesterday! Thank you GreenTealael for catching that!

I'm joining you November 2018 sleevers rather than the 2017s! November 20th for surgery date so here we go I guess.

Excited and nervous at the same time. I've been on the Optifast for 1 week now, hoping for the week of November 13th but the docs on holidays that week so I guess that means one more week on the Optifast. Probably a better idea than stopping though, as I have the momentum with this stuff and still actually like it but we shall see how I feel at the 4 week mark..maybe not so content.

Not loosing a huge amount on the Optifast but I had already lost quite a bit leading up to this but down 5lbs in the first week on it..so I think that's average. The lower the better though before going in for surgery..that's the plan anyway!

Hello, I am new to this even though I’ve been reading topics since I decided I wanted to have this surgery lol Im having my sleeve done on 11/20 and thought this was the perfect time to join. I’m excited yet extremely scared about having this surgery. However I’m excited to share my experience with others that are going through the same thing! 😊

Welcome and Congrats!!

Nearly November, 31 days and counting for me. Hows everyone feeling?

My surgery is tomorrow, November 1st. I was on 12 days of Premier Protein shakes and 2 Greek yogurt and all the Clear Liquids I want. I have been on clear liquids only yesterday and today. Feeling nervous, but really glad the day is just about here.

It's starting to feel real now. My surgery is the 6th which is now less than a week away! I am more excited than nervous. I've had plenty of surgeries so I don't have any fear about that or about the pain afterwards. I am a little nervous about whether I will have prolonged nausea because I'm prone to that after surgery anyway. BUT I am just SO READY!
