I am having gastric sleeve on June 3rd, which is about seven weeks prior to yours, but if you'd like to follow me on here or on Facebook that would be perfect! Sent from my LM-G710VM using BariatricPal mobile app

I guess I am lucky -- my doctor is only requiring a liquid pre-op diet for one day. And I have been told NOT to drink protein drinks before surgery as they cause weight gain. Good luck!

Fantastic advice!

you, my dear, are a ROCKSTAR!

My date is June 3rd, 2019 ~~ following your thread and excited to see everyone's progress

I am 55 and having the gastric sleeve done on June 3rd 2019 Sent from my LM-G710VM using BariatricPal mobile app

Thank you!! I am glad my feelings are "normal". I am going to follow you, if you don't mind ~~ we can watch each others progress And I, like you, am not doing this to "wear a bikini" or anything like that ~~ I would just like to cross my legs again and not breathe hard when I walk

I can SO relate to you!! My surgery is June 3rd (in just days) and I am SO terrified that I won't be able to overcome my binge eating I, like you, can eat a whole bag of chips in one day... I NEVER feel full until I am almost sick from eating! My starting weight was 287, now I am 275, so I must be doing something right, but my mind keeps thinking about "food funerals" before my surgery, and this is a very warped way of thinking, in my opinion (as applies to myself). Today is the first real day I have felt that fear, and I don't like it! Congrats to you ~~ you have done an amazing job ~~ you should be very proud!

Just simply tell them the truth -- you are watching what you eat and exercising!

30 lbs. down in 2 weeks? That is fabulous!! My surgery isn't until June 3rd, so I have nothing to share with you, but I sure hope I do as well as you have Congratulations!!

I am scheduled for surgery on June 3rd, and I am wondering how long it took everyone to return to work? I have a desk job, and am seriously hoping to return after one week, ir not sooner. Is this possible? Thanks!

Thanks for your honesty! I am trying to get ahead of things beforehand (as much as I can anyway)

Thanks -- I'm getting anxiety attacks already But still so excited!
