Hi all. Just an update I was sleeved on the 8th of april. Not the smoothest operation, I had a bleed after and had to go back into surgery. I have been very grogy for 2 days although feeling alot better this morning. I have not been able to get out of bed yet due to blood pressure but feeling alot better today ????

Jessica,

Praying that you get better. So sorry to hear about the rough time you've had. If you need to talk or just vent, we're all here for you.

I'm doing good, starting to have some mixed emotions.

When I start to doubt my decision I look to all the success stories & B/A pictures.

Pre-Op diet hasn't been too awful bad. 2 Protein shakes, 1 sensible meal with SF Snacks. Monday start all liquid.

How about yourself ❓

Is anyone else on the 8th of March. Im starting to get very nervous?

Hi Jessica.lee91????

Did you mean the 8th of March or April ❓

I'm scheduled for April 8th, just a few more days away!!

Nervous, excited .... ????

I started my liquid diet yesterday, 4/1. Scheduled for surgery on 4/8. Good luck and best wishes my fellow April sleevers!

Hi bamagirl ????

Im also scheduled for the 8th.

I can't wait for the new me!

Good luck to you and all the April sleevers!!!

Hi everyone

Pike County Ohio here, surgery scheduled for next week April8th.

Anyone else in this area?

Very!!! Haha

Sams Club had 12 pack PP strawberries & cream $17.84

I was originally scheduled for today, started my all liquid diet a week ago this past Sunday....was postponed till April 9th, stayed with all liquids, just didn't want to go thru those first few days again.....I'm finding it hard to sleep.....but not sure if it's nerves or the change in my diet.....looking forward to getting on with the next phase of this journey....and wearing a belt! Lol. Good luck April sleevers!! <3 :-)

Hi LoriNS,

I'm having similar issues. I've been on pre-op diet for a week now and I'm also having trouble sleeping. I don't know why?

I'm scheduled for April 8th.... Can't get here soon enough! LoL ????

RammerJammer, EricF

Congrats on your upcoming surgery dates. I think we're all feeing a bit overwhelmed at this moment.

Can't wait for the new "us".

RammerJammer, have you started your pre-op diet yet? How are you doing?

EricF, your the first I've heard of that doesn't have to be on a pre-op diet. They say the whole purpose of the pre-op diet is to shrink the liver & make surgery safer.

Hang in there, you got this!!! Stay positive, the end result is well worth it. Keep us posted ????

The Premier Protein chocolate is my favorite. I can also handle the PP Strawberries & cream. I tried the Muscle Milk vanilla and can barely get it all down. I'm 6 days in to my pre-op diet now.

Mines Is April 10th I'm 3 days in my 2 week liquid diet, And it is harsh lol

Hi ChrysChry89

You can do it!! Stay focused and keep the end goal in mind. When I feel hungry I'll read success stories or look at before and after pictures for motivation.

My doctor has me on a one week diet consisting of 2 Protein shakes and 1 sensible meal with SF Jello, SF pudding or SF Popsicles as a snack. Today is my 6th day into the diet. It's rough at times. It seems that everywhere I look I see pictures of food or advertisements of food.< /p>

One week from today on Monday April 6th is when I go on a 48 hour all liquid diet before surgery.

Good luck to all the April sleevers!!!! I'm sheduled for April 8th myself. Its been a roller coaster of emotions. Currently on day 6 of pre-op diet.
