I'm 43 and 5'5". My weight before starting the pre-op diet was 272.6. I am having surgery on the 21st and my current weight is 259. My BMI is in the 40's.

Awww, Im sorry....that can be frustrating. When I quit smoking my husband tried to hide his smoking from me at 1st and I told him not to because I had to learn that his choices cant effect me. Psychologically I have to seperate myself from what others do. He sits on the couch next to me and eats m&m's and twinkies, popcorn etc. I'll have this breif relapse and want to eat just one kernel or m&m but have to reel myself in and come back to reality. Its a mindset that is going to have to work to save my life and im going to have to stick to if this lifestyle/journey is going to work for me. 🥂 To overcoming our cravings and being bad ass! LOL.

I’m 9 days into a three week pre-op. I lost 5.4 pounds the first week, but I ate the post-op diet for five weeks prior. My mom started on the same day and lost 9lbs in the first few days.
my husband isn’t unsupportive just clueless. Asks me to cook food that I can’t eat or bring food to him that smells good. I’m actually sitting in a movie theater with him right now and he’s eating a flatbread pizza while I sip Water. I’ve had two Protein Shakes today. It can be frustrating.

Hospital just called my surgery time is 12:45pm EST on Monday...is it bad that now it's hitting me that this is no longer a hope it will happen but an actual it will happen thing? Oh boy...

My date is June 29! Used to be my wedding anniversary so I’m glad to be replacing it with a much better memory ♥️

Hi- I'm new to the group. Just joined yesterday. I'm 38 years old and started the process on Jan10th with a starting weight of 305.4. Currently on my 2 week pre-op diet (no fun lol) and am at about 291. I'm having the sleeve done on the 20th. Like most of us, I am extremely worried about the after effects of the surgery and the recovery process. The biggest fear is that I will have gone through all of this and just not see the results. I have had so many appointments, clearances, tests and procedures to make sure that I'm able to have this done and now that that is all over, I'm just scared. Also I'm worried about the COVID test. I really don't want to come up positive and have my whole schedule ruined.
How are you all? How is everyone coping?

Hiii,
i just had a revision on June 8 from sleeve to bypass because of severe GERD with surprise hiatial hernia repair. Yesterday was all Clear Liquids. The pains have been crazy and the poop have been liquid. I also just woke up and realized I pooped the bed. ☹️ This is crazy. I think I’ll be buying diapers for a while. Today I start the full liquid diet.

My surgery is on the 20th.
My pre-surgery diet is 2 weeks of 2 Protein Shakes and one low carb, high Protein meal, then the day before surgery and 3 days after is Clear Liquids only. At that point I can start having 3 protein shakes a day for 2 weeks. Then a pureed diet for another 2 weeks. After that it can be more normal textured food as long as it is cut well, not dry and chewed thoroughly. They said the meals should be mostly protein and then non starchy vegetables can be added in,

I'm June 20th as well!

Super late to this one but I’m scheduled for 17 June
Yikes that’s close!

Two week wait...Down to two weeks before surgery. Finished my first week of liquid pre-op and am down 5.4lbs this week.

Not at all! I hope we all do amazing. I have two weeks until I fly to San Antonio. It's getting a bit real at this point.

Hey, I just had my surgery on the 7th too. The first day I don't remember anything outside of me being rolled in the OR then waking up in my hospital room. But today I feel great. No pain. I'm walking around,sipping on fluids. Going home tomorrow. My surgeon was awesome. I had a very good experience. I'm just looking at this as a rebirth. We got this. Be blessed.

@jessica1024 I was in the same boat as you. I had my surgery June 2. I worried for no reason honestly. I was also thinking about being hungry in front of food and preparing food for the kids but the cool thing is you don’t get hungry as we think we will.
