    I had to be on a clear liquid diet 2 weeks prior to surgery. I cheated 3 times the first week. I realized I couldn't eat much, and when I cheated, I got sick. I had surgery Wednesday August 22nd. I lost 17 lbs on the pre-op. Hang in there. It will be worth it.

    Good luck to all of you! I was sleeved on August 22nd. The emotional part I have found much be quite normal. I cried one minute and laughed the next. Never could decide if I was making the right decision. The soreness is the worst part. I can't say that I was in pain. You must walk walk walk! I promise it makes the soreness go away more quickly. Good luck to all of you. I hope I can answer some questions for each of you since I have already had the procedure.
