Good luck! I loved dr boorse, I am 9 months post op, down about 110 pounds[emoji4]

I'm tomorrow too! I go in at 5am, I think surgery is at 7am. I'm excited anxious and happy honestly. I did cheat my preop diet, but it wasn't strict, and not a liver shrinking diet so I think I'll be okay, I'm hoping lol good luck tomorrow to you guys though!

Is there a fb page for July sleepers? If not I will start one if anyone wants to join and post updates and be there for eachother!

I start July 10th! When will you start?

I'm scheduled for July 24th too! After 2 prior surgery dates (april 26th and June 7th) I'm hoping no other rode blocks come up and I will have my sleeve done!! Did anyone make a fb group? I would love to join!

If you're interested in watching a YouTube video. There is this girl that has wls and she is full vegan now! She posts videos of foods she eats and stuff, her name is madeupmamma so if you watch her newer videos maybe they will help![emoji5]

Thank you so much! My pre op diet isn't al liquid, its protein shake for breakfast and lunch, and then a Greek yogurt or protein bar for snack (twice a day) and then dinner is 6 ounces of meat, 1 cup cooked vegetables and 1/2 cup starch. So I'm on day 5 of my 2 weeks and I've already lost 6.6 pounds so I'm hoping it's working lol I'm terrified of that happening, bc I have had some slip ups to be honest. But I hope all goes well on surgery for you![emoji173]️

I'm terrified of going in and my liver didn't shrink enough so I'll have to reschedule, my original date was april 26th but the surgery was rescheduled for June 7th bc something came up and he wouldn't be in the office. If you don't mine my asking, did they start surgery and see they couldn't do it or by ultrasound or something?

The link isn't working, can you invite me to the group? My fb name is Lindsey Baran

Me too!

I'm June 7th too!

I was so mad for the fact I've been waiting so long for this and then also, my boyfriend took a week off work(I'm a stay at home mom) so he could take care of our 9 month old daughter while I recover, and his mom took off the day of surgery to stay with my daughter so my boyfriend could stay with me. I feel so horrible. And like how is June so far and the earliest[emoji24][emoji24]

So my surgeon had something come up and is canceling all his surgeries on Wednesday the 26th and the earliest they could reschedule me was for June 7th. I'm so mad and frustrated

I'm on the nuvaring and I love it. No pills to remember and its not painful to put in or take out!

Yay! Follow me on instagram, that way we can keep up on each other's progress?? @jaylas__mommy right now it's mostly pictures of my daughter but starting the 26th ill be posting progress pictures every month[emoji4][emoji4]

I am very lucky to not have a all liquid pre op diet. I give you props haha I have a protein shake for breakfast then a snack which is either a protein bar or Greek yogurt and then lunch is a protein shake and then I get another snack then for dinner it's 6 ounces of lean protein, 1 cup of cooked vegetables(2 cups if raw) and 1/2 cup of a starch then one more protein shake before bed if I'm hungry! Good luck though! The 26th will be here before we know it![emoji4][emoji4][emoji4]

Yeah I definitely feel like I might, and at most I'm hoping just an arm surgery honestly. I have big thighs but I've always had muscular legs from doing gymnastics and soccer. So I'm hoping that plays a good role in little to no loose skin. But After I had my daughter I bounced back immediately, like I left the hospital under my pre pregnancy weight, and I had a 9.8 pound baby so I stretched huge haha that was 33 weeks pregnant to 4 weeks postpartum. I'm really just hoping for the best! My insurance wouldn't cover anything besides a pani I think it's called so if I qualify I'm fine with getting that but anything else would be out of pocket and being 20 and a stay at home mom it would be difficult for sure!

I hope so honestly! I definitely plan to always stay hydrated and work out as much as possible! Thank you

So I have surgery april 26th, I'm getting so close haha but one of my main fears is getting excess skin where ill need surgery. I am 5'6 275 pounds and I am 20 years old. I definitely carry my weight well right now and no one ever thinks I'm above 220. I do plan on getting my boobs done after but I'm so worried about my arms and stomach. I know ill either have lots of excess skin or ill be okay, and there's no way of knowing until I get there but I'm curious of anyone with similar age and stats could give me some insight on if they had lots or minimal excess skin! I haven't taken any pictures full body in a while bc its embarrassing to me lol but this picture was when i was 256 to give a idea, just add 20 pounds onto me lol

I would!

You look great! And i will keep that in mind, I have surgery next month, and we're the same height and similar starting weight, I'm a little more at about 270 but I was curious do/did you have lots of loose skin? I'm 20, so I'm hoping my age plays good in my favor lol but I haven't seen anyone on here with similar stats to ask!

That's still close! Lets keep in touch with progress!
