I'd be happy to be your sleeve buddy. Today has seemed like a fog. I'm getting sleeved at 9:30 tomorrow. I was on vacation during my pre-op diet but still managed to do well. I was traveling with 5 other people so at times it was a chore to stay on track, but I managed. What time are you getting sleeved?

Hi, Everyone. Tomorrow is the big day. Please remember me in your prayers. Thanks.

Good luck. I'm getting sleeved on Tuesday so we are almost twins! What pre-op diet are you doing?

Congratulations! I'm getting sleeved on Tuesday. and am feeling a bit nervous. Your post helped to calm me down. How much weight did you lose on your pre-op diet? I've lost 8 or 10 lob. I hope that is enough. My BMI is 39ish now.

Feel better soon!

I started my pre-op diet 7 days ago. I have surgery on June 14th. My diet said to eat 1000 calories high protein per day. I thought I'd have a difficult time but it hasn't been too bad. I'm on a trip with three other couples and they don't stop eating. Before my pre-op diet began I felt the same way as you--eating all the things I thought I'd miss, but when the time came to begin the diet, I just shut down and haven't cheated at all. On the other hand, I'm eating tuna, and chicken at lunch and dinner because they are high protein and low calorie. I just keep tabs on the calorie count. Good luck with everything.

June 14th I'm getting sleeved. I begin my pre-op diet today. Is anyone having trouble with family trying to get you to eat? My husband is having a more difficult time with this than I am. He keeps trying to get me to eat (just a little) with him. My required diet is 1000 calories high protein per day--two shakes and one small meal.

I'm getting sleeved in Tucson on June 14th. I'm having my blood tests today and starting my pre-op diet this morning. Two more weeks! I'm getting a bit nervous, yet excited. I'll be leaving for vacation in Toronto on Saturday, so I know the pre-surgery diet will be more difficult. My husband will be the most difficult. He always wants me to eat when he does. This morning he is already trying to get me to eat Breakfast with him. Has anyone else had family members or friends who do this?

I am scheduled for the sleeve surgery on June 12th. I leave for a vacation to Toronto on the 4th so I'll be on the preop diet while on my vacation--uck! I will have two protien shakes perday and then a small meal for dinner--veggies and a portion of lean meat. I will begin tomorrow with my pre-preop diet (self-imposed) of replacing breakfast with a protein shake. What about preop vitamins? Is anyone else getting set by taking extra supplements?
