So far my blood sugars are amazing, but I am just barely starting out. How are your vitamins? I am taking calcium citrate, iron, multi, and sublingual B12. I have heard B12 is great for energy.

I am so frustrated. I lost almost a pound a day on my preop diet, now post op and hardly loosing. I was expecting for the fastest weight loss to be in the beginning and for it to then slow, but with only a 3lb loss I don't know how slow it could be later on.

I am right there with you... Day 2 of 15 days of full liquid diet... I am a little miserable but alive. I am getting sleeved January 27th.

I would love even a lean and green meal at this point. 15 days of full liquid diet. At least I can say one down and only 14 to go!

I was very I'll after my EGD. The anesthesia totally did me in...

I just started my preop diet today. I am scheduled for the 27th... I am already fighting my brain. My brain keeps telling me I need to eat... I am so hungry! My body on the other hand isn't as hungry as I expected to be. We can do this!

I start my liquid diet Tuesday. I am feeling really overwhelmed and very much in mourning as I get closer and closer. My love affair with food is about to end and I am terrified.

I didn't get my date until everything was completed. Diet, psych, egd, and Drs clearance were all completed before I got a date. I am using isoprene rtd and powder.

I am both excited and terrified... We have to figure out if my husband will be able to get the time off of work or if we need to hire a nanny for the week, my kids hav dentist appointments two days after surgery... There is a lot to figure out... But it will give me less time to be nervous so that is good! I am beyond ready for this and we will make it work.

I just got moved up three weeks... Surgery will now be January 27th...

I just got a call and am moving up to January 27th... I preop Monday. This is getting real.

I put up a preop album... It is hard seeing myself this big... But I have to see where I am coming from... Less than six weeks to go.

We love kale in our house... Not so much on its own because it is not all that tasty but it is a great source of calcium and fiber and being dairy free we really have to work to get our calcium. I am sure you will do great as well... It is getting so close. Stay strong!
