I'm so sorry for all your experiences. I told everyone at work about my surgery and they have been nothing but supportive. I am still out on FMLA and haven't been back to work yet but I'm sure they will continue to be as supportive when I get back. I also am the manager so maybe they just act nice in front of me but hey I don't care I'll take it!! Stay positive and remember what others think is not important, we have to take care of ourselves and our well being. Keep on losing and keep on smiling!!!!

This is me the day before surgery 6/6/16.

I am five days post-op and today have felt really hungry. My stomach just feels upset all the time and although I've taken many liquids in water, broth, some yogurt I still feel like I'm hungry and my stomach is just making noises. I'm so glad you asked because I thought I was just going crazy and did not expect to be hungry so early on. I am also taking Prevacid but I don't know is anyone else on any medication for acid reflex? What are you all taking? Maybe what I'm on doesn't work for me. I finally gave in and had some refried beans but now I just feel sick. Arghhh why is this so hard?

I'm june 6th as well! Good luck tomorrow Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App I am going in tomorrow too. So nervous can't fall asleep. Good luck everyone!!!

June 6 las vegas

I'm June 6! Good luck to everyone. I can't believe it's almost here.

I did not have to do a long pre open diet lost about 10 in the beginning during the 90 day required diet supervised by my doctor. Now that I'm a week away I have to have rhe same diet as you protein shakes twice a day and I can have one healthy meal until three days before surgery then it's an all clear liquid diet til the day. I can't believe it's do close only 6 more days to go. I haven't been that good with my diet do far but I'm going to try to be better these last couple of days.

Hi Nikki I am schedule for June 6 as well. How's your pre-op diet going?

Congratulations!!!! Sent from my SM-G935T using the BariatricPal App Thank you!! We should be buddies.Definitely. Are you using fitbit or my fitness pal? Also there's a secret group on Facebook. Let me know. Sent from my SM-G935T using the BariatricPal App I am not using either one but I plan on buying a fit bit. I think I am in a couple facebook groups, the latest one is for June - July sleevers

How are you handling the pre-op diet? What pre-op diet are you following? I only have to do Clear liquids for 3 days. But I have to replace two meals with shakes until then and my surgery date is June 6.

Congratulations!!!! Sent from my SM-G935T using the BariatricPal App Thank you!! We should be buddies.

OMG we are going in on the same day and at the same time. We should be surgery buddies!!!

Hi! I found it that all I have to do is just meal replacements with one small meal until 3 days before surgery and then it's all clear liquids till the day of surgery. I'm doing ok feeling a little hungry but it's not that bad since I can still eat a small healthy meal. I think it's more mental than physical for me. I forgot to mention I've been also debating this for the past 2 years so my family is very supportive but not many of my friends know about it just close ones.

I kinda started mine in just supposed to have meal replacements and small meals u till three days before surgery and then it's all clear liquids. I am doing ok kinda hungry but I think it's more mental than physical.

I am scared too. I have all these things just rushing through my mind mostly what if I fail? Stuff like that.
