Hi there,

Just wondering if anyone else is looking at having their sleeve surgery this May? It's too early for me to get an actual date, but I'm thinking it will be toward the end of May. How about you?

I'm scheduled for May 1!

Yeaaaaaaaa another sleeve buddy! Where are you from? What are your stats, how old are you?

Hey vsg!!!!! I started my 2 week shake diet yesterday...doing the same as you, and let me tell you...I'M STARVING!! All I know is that I will be snaking on some fat free cottage cheese when needed! lol. I hurt my back at work today, so I need to take it easy. I'm 9 pounds down. Thats my 5%, so i'm happy for that! And welocme all new comers!

LOL!! NO...sorry, I didnt explain myself fully! I actually started eating oatmeal for breakfast, salads with raw veggies and turkey for lunch, then a light dinner. I did that for 3 weeks, and dropped the weight

We are the same age I'm 24 going on 25 in June I weight 282 and would like to be 160, so I need to lose a little bit more weight than you but would love to continue chatting to see how our body response.

I am rescheduled for May 11, 2012 with Dr. Rodriguez in Juarez at Star Medica. Still nervous as ever.

Phatdivabbw- you're right around the corner from me! (Hamilton border). Saw my dr and NUT today, may be able to get may 16 instead!!! Crossing fingers, but I doubt my insurance will get back that fast ):

HEY girlie' date=' im on Protein shakes also. but ive only lost 3 lbs. hows your progress?[/quote']

Hey Sandra! I'm fluctuating! 2-3 lbs. I just completed a bootcamp class down 10lbs. My NUT increased my low carb veggie intake because my fingers started looking like chicken tenders!! Lol so I've been eating collard greens and cabbage. Oh my I can't wait to cross over! Hang in there Chicka, we're almost there!!!

I'm scheduled for May 1!

Hello fellow sleeve twin!!! Best wishes to you! : )

That's a good idea! Did your doctor suggest the Gas X. I'm on Clear liquids the day before the surgery.

Yes, my doctor told me to take the strips before surgery and I plan on taking them as soon as I'm alert!!!
