I was just told that i most lose 20 pounds within these two weeks or surgery is off. I asked her if thats even possible, she said yes. I probably need hands laid on me. Damn, i will be very moody and mad as hell. You guys are my people so help your girl out.

Thanks. You go to forums, then choose one and if your on your phone choose the setting button and click on thread. Hope this helps

She is so ready

My surgery date is on December 3, scared and excited at the same time

Hi, I'm getting done on 12/2. Had preop today. No issues with Cigna approval. I had read some horror stories. The only bummer is surgery is not until 4:00 in the afternoon. I will be a wreck and probably won't get up into my room until after 10 pm. I know how important is to get up and walk and am afraid I will be wiped. Getting surgery with Dr. Julie Kim at Mt. Auburn in Cambridge, MA. Good luck to all December sleevers. What a way to start 2014.

Tomorrow is the day i pick up my shakes. Please let me if anyone tried opti fast and enjoyed it. Please let me know how the vanilla, chocolate and strawberry taste. People i am so happy and scared as hell to. But this gal is ready.

I was sleeved on Thursday (November 14th). They told me to lay in bed, but not on my back. I have to lie on my sides. It starts getting old after a couple of nights. I don't have access to a recliner, so I can't say if that is any better. I am using a body pillow between my legs.
I sleep well if I take one of my pain meds right before bed. After the first night, I slept fairly well. I wake up every time I want to switch sides. That's annoying.
Good luck!

Honestly, there is no fun way to do the liquids for two weeks. It's sucks and you might need to see a therapist from the lasting emotional scars it leaves you. J/k But seriously it isn't easy. You just have to keep in mind what your end goal is, accept that the liquid phase will not be fun, and power your way through it. The docs give us the pre-op diet for a reason so it's our responsibility to do what is asked. The third day was the hardest for me. I got really nasty towards people and became a bit of a hermit. It was the only way I survived.

I felt the same way. I got the call saying i was approved. The skinny girl inside me started screaming. Oh did i tell you i was approved in 2 days. (In my Wendy Williams whisper). Lol

I can't neither

OMG. My paper work was submitted on Friday and i received a call today saying i was approved. Thank you to all that was so supportive. I can't wait to be on the looser side. AHHHH. To excited. #Soontobesleeved

Haven't had surgery yet, but i wanted to know does it get expensive when it comes to buying clothes after surgery. Because I'll be losing weight fast, I'll have to go shopping constantly. Which i would love but I don't got it like that. Lol
