    State Fair advise

    My date is 11/14 too! I will be on vacation in San Diego when I start my pre-op diet. I'm just thinking of the money that I'll save from not eating out at restaurants during that time. Good luck!
  3. I'm taking them today! One month until I get my sleeve! Is everybody else photo documenting their journey?

    So exciting! That's my birthday too, it's definitely a good day! Haha! My surgery date is just a couple days before you on 11/14. Good luck!

    length of time in hospital

    My pre-op packet said that it is planned overnight stay, but that it is an approx timeframe. Getting super excited!!

    November Sleevers, let's buddy up

    I have heard that too! That is exactly why I am doing a self-imposed pre-op diet. Don't want to take any chances. Besides, losing a couple pounds (hopefully) before surgery can't hurt! I also think it will help me prep better for the post-op diet.

    November Sleevers, let's buddy up

    @@roundisashape I was trying to research that online and here on BP. I'm thinking 2-3 shakes/isopure drinks a day and one meal. Same as you! I was going to try the unflavored protein in broth and soup to kind of experiment with it. I'll probably do clear liquids and sugar free jello starting 3 days before (11/11) too.

    November Sleevers, let's buddy up

    11/14 for me! My surgeon doesn't require a pre-op diet, but I am doing one anyway starting on 11/1. So excited!!

    Anyone having surgery in November

    Hasn't hit me either! I'm trying to focus on getting everything prepped and trying to research as much as possible. The complication stories are hard to stay away from. :/
  14. I went to Hi-Health yesterday to get a couple of bottles to see if I liked any of the flavors. They only had the powder jugs ($40 each on sale) and the 20oz glass bottles ($4 each). I tried the blue raspberry, but holy cow was that sweet! Tasted like the blue syrup they use on snow cones. It wasn't terrible, but I couldn't finish the full 20 oz. I know they sell 8oz plastic bottles too. I'll be getting those online if I can find a flavor that is calmer. Has anyone else tried them yet? Even drinking half of it, I still got 20 grams of Protein, so that's good I guess.

    Isopure clear protein drinks

    Ha!! I did pick up a grape one. I'll have hubby try that one first lol!

    GAAAH! I only have 8 weeks to prep!

    I saw this post yesterday and thought, "Wow! that's not much time at all!". I looked at the calendar this morning and I realized I only have 7 weeks left!!! My sleeve date is 11/14. It doesn't feel like enough time, but then it feels like it isn't soon enough.

    Anyone having surgery in November

    My date is set for November 14th! Pre-op appt on the 12th and post-op on the 18th. Dr. Reynoso in Scottsdale, AZ is my surgeon. Trying to find a good countdown app for my phone now!
