Hi, I am getting the LB on the 7th also. Just starting liquid diet..should be fun!

Today is Day 7 of my 2 weeks Pre Op liquid. I have lost 13 lbs. I have 2 Atkins Advantage Protein Drink a day, sugar free pudding, SF Jello and SF Popsicles as much as I can when I'm hungry. I would have a cup or 2 of chicken broth in evening to relax. I love this, it is easy for me. I feel great already and have lost one one inch at my waist. Good luck to all of you this week.

And I would love to add all of the OCTOBER BANDSTERS to my contact list. Feel free to make friends with me. I am also on Y: justdoo62

My pre-op diet consists of:

1 EAS Protein Shake for breakfast

1 EAS Protein shake for lunch

1 Smart Ones or Lean Cuisine supper

64 oz Water daily

sugar free popsicle for snack

I add sugar free fat free pudding mix (banana cream) to my shakes with crushed ice if I want to feel like I'm at Sonic and mix it in my bullet mixer I just bought and LOVE--

Hi ya'll!

I was watching this thread and then dropped off somewhere and missed so much!

I had started a list of surgery dates too under the October 2008 subforum. Feel free to run over there to post if you want. I'm going to combine names from your list/mine...hope that's okay. They may all be the same, who knows? Guess I'll find out in a minute!

I'm getting REALLY excited!!!!

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

      3. buildabetteranna

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

    • buildabetteranna

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
