June Surgeries

[t0bell@ 13]

Hi All -
My sleeve surgery is scheduled for 6/28. I am eager and excited about it. Today I found this forum and I could not be happier. I have so many questions and love to learn more from those going through it too.

My surgery is may 24. I am having an EGD in may 18. I have been on the liquid diet for about a week. I was supposed to lose 30 before my surgery and I have only lost 27. But I am walking and am losing about a pound a day on the liquid.

You can do this 👏🏻👏🏻I’m 40 years old and getting mine done at end of June. Excited and nervous. Curious what are your stats?

I'm scheduled for June 28th. Have my final meeting with the nutritionist on the 2nd and will be going liquid a week later. I'm so excited and nervous at the same time. I've been fortunate that I have been able to get through all the preliminaries and just started on February 10th.

Has anyone used Georgia SurgiCare in ATL for their Gastric sleeve surgery? I am scheduled for June 15th.

I’m using them for the ESG on 6/17!

I was scheduled for MAY, but my surgery got postponed. A week into the liquid diet and I got sick with bronchitis, and need to be on some meds and heal. SO frustrating. So it's pushed out almost a month. They were going to do it earlier, but I think a couple weeks later is the better option. I don't think trying to heal and doing the liquid diet was the best. I'm frustrated, but in a way relieved. I was feeling "off" for a bit, and was nervous about not feeling 100% going into surgery. Just hoping for some good healing right now!

I tell ya, it's weird to eat food after the liquid diet. 21 days and I'm back on the shakes.

Anyway, hello June surgery folks.
