Well I got a phone call Tuesday from my advocate who told me to go ahead and start my liquid diet so I did. However she did tell me that she hadn't even submitted the paperwork to my insurance company yet so currently I'm on a fast and a potential date of June 30th and I still don't know if I'm having surgery. I'm doing the fast but I'm really anxious and I'm nervous and I'm afraid that I'm doing it for nothing.

I didn't have all that. I did have an EGD (upper Endoscopy) and for the most part my dr. Says I'm pretty healthy. All of my illnesses is from my weight. I am scheduled to be sleeved June 30. Good luck with your test @ktprimo. I am sure all will be fine.

@@Ktprimo what kind of pre-op tests are you referring to?

Am I doing something wrong??? I don't have headaches I'm not hungry but I am tired all the time. I am on day 3 of my pre-op liquid diet and I'm not having the same effects as everyone else. Am I doing something wrong

Alicia I'm having it on the 30th also!!! I am also on day 3. Not hungry really but I am tired a lot!!!

I am on day 3 and I can't keep eyes open at all I thought it was boredom that was making me go to sleep but then I realize if I don't have anything going into my body to give me energy then I don't have any energy and I'm tired. It really is refreshing to have this site to look at to remind me that I'm not the only one out there going to this right now. So thank you all for sharing your stories.

@@bengaldude I love this update. Please keep posting your progress. I need to know what to expect and you are very detailed!

This was my first as well. I asked for an anxiety med during pre op. My nerves were shot. I only remember flashes after that. My husband said it was about 3 hours from when I left him until I was put in my room. My only pain was from my hernia repair. Morphine was a godsend! I slept most of that first day. The second day was so much better. I was walking around, doing Water and sleeping. Thank you so much.???? I'll be sure to ask for something as well during pre-op.

@@Hisbrowneyedgirl I have never had surgery. So anything you can tell me. I am excited but I guess nervous at the same.time.

Congratulations!!!! Can you tell me more?? I am 11 days away till surgery and I feel like I'm going to chicken out.

@@peteyrulz Hope you are doing well today I know how excited you are. Please let me know how it went!! I want full details! @@Rochellevsg I see that most drs. Are much more strict after surgery than before. My dr. Is a two week liquid diet guy. Good luck my friend.

@@Cleopatra79 -- how long before you got the approval from humana???

please keep me posted after your surgery. Thank you so much for sharing !

I'm scheduled for June 30th and I am so afraid. But I know they are unwarranted fears. Does anyone else have fears?? I have never had a surgery before so you can imagine all the fears I have.

I am on day 2 of my pre-op liquid diet and this morning my #2 was almost black. Very dark brown. Why?? I hate to be gross but I thought I could get some feedback before my crazy kicked in and I stalked my dr. Do you think it's because I drank two dark chocolate protein shakes?

Roseluv3 i am.strugglin too. I am having a vodka funeral hahah.

I did have some.mashed potatoes thst were soaked I water and some tomato soup highly diluted

I'm on day one. I am so afraid of failing.

I'm not hungry but my boredom is telling me I am. So I am filling up in water and sf jello

unfortunately we can't have pudding!! Only what u can sip through a straw. Pudding is considered "pureed" food. Good luck. I'm on day one right now.

I am starting my liquid diet today and so far I'm ok but it's only 10am. I noticed I wasn't hungry at all yesterday but I was eating out of boredom. I'm still not hungry but boredom is starting to set I

Is there anyone here from Augusta Ga. My surgery date is June 30 and I would love to go through this with someone else. Height 5'2 Weight 244 BMI 44.9 Goal 129 Dr. Glass at Trinity is my surgeon.
