Carole2382 reacted to Jerziegirl in My Journey/March 2014 Sleever
I am scheduled to be sleeved on March 3rd. My pre-op diet starts next week. I have so many emotions going through my head right now...excitement, nerves, anticipation, worry...it's unreal! I know at 5'4 and 228 pounds, that it's time to take this weight off for good! I would be lying if I said I wasn't worried about complications but for the most part, I am a very healthy person and I do try to think positive. I try to think about what it will be like to shop for clothes that will look great on me. Sometimes though, I look at my 3 daughters and worry about "What if something goes wrong?". I'm worried about going from full eating to a liquid diet for 2 weeks before surgery. I'm not so worried about after because I've been reading that afterwards, you really don't even want anything. Any other March 2014 sleevers?

I'm so excited to be this close to surgery. I don't have a date yet. I go back to the surgeon on Jan. 8, 2014. I expect we will set a date then (hopefully). January 29 ends the 3 month "diet" period. So I think I'm looking at surgery in February.

I did not use Turnquest, but HERE is a link to go to the search functionality for the forum. 49 threads are here with their name in it, so perhaps reading these or reaching out to the folks who went to him will be what you are looking for.
Good luck with your journey!

I am experiencing the same thing. I was sleeved on 8-16-10 and have lost $22 lbs (including pre-op). It's been 2 weeks I am on mushy foods and the scale has been wicked. Does not want to move. I am so disappointed at this time and get horrible thoughts too. What if the weight does not come off.
