Less than 48 hours til surgery, so ready to go. Excited to start this new chapter in life. Wife (sleeved 11/11) is down 25 or so and doing great and now it's my turn. Finishing my Christmas shopping tomorrow and should get my surgery time sometime in afternoon. Everything's packed and ready have my last 4 hours of work tonight and that's it...

i was the same, absolutely starving. so after some research i added one meal a day of solid protein...3 or 4 ounces of white meat chicken or turkey, a couple of boiled eggs, a few oz of cheese. it really kept me on the straight and narrow. Yes me too tonight i broke down had some chicken and cheese and a hard boiled egg, also a support group person said muscle milk helped with hunger and i tried it and it works.. Keep pushing we will overcome this...

My date is also the 20th and the last few days have been rough, we will look back at these struggles and say ah this was well worth. Good luck and keep in touch..

Good luck buddy, keep us posted....I go a week from today! Ttys

Hi all I'm Terry 35 and I'm scheduled for December 18th, my wife was November 11th. Start my preop diet this Wednesday.

Mine is also December 18th...we got your back...

My name is Terry I'm 35 and happily married to my wife of 3 years Sharon who had her sleeve surgery November 11th. I have a son 5 & a daughter 11. Me and my wife made a decision back in March that when my daughter was fully recovered from her open heart surgery (fix and repair valves and by far the scariest thing in my life) that we had to do something drastic to ensure we will be around for the kids for as long as possible. So she went in November and I'm due up December 18th. This has been a journey for me personally dealing with my weight since my time in the Army and a very bad knee injury. I will be pushing myself hard to do the right thing. More about me I am a former member of the US Army, the NJ National Guard and a classic car enthusiasts (newest project 1969 Dodge D100 step side). I am employed at Richard Stockton College as a Senior Building Maintenance Worker. I have two children through previous relationships and am a very proud father. My children have sparked my need and drive to get this surgery right. Thanks for reading and good luck everyone.....

I am a December 18th sleever, first time poster and user on here. My wife had her surgery November 11th. We made a decision last march that once our daughter recovered from her open heart surgery we would begin this process. I'm proud of my wife and where she is and looking forward to my new beginning. My preop diet starts Wednesday. Good luck fellow December sleevers....
