How are you doing on your preop diet??

So far so good, today will start day 7 of 12. Have not cheated but want some soup bad. Oh dang, I forgot to eat my lean cusine yesterday.

Hey, just wanted to jump in and say congrats on choosing July to be sleeved. I, personally, think it's an especially great month to do it in. I'm a July vet, having been sleeved two years ago.

Best of luck to all of you in the upcoming months. You'll all do great!

July 23, having my pre-op on Tuesday the 10th, I Guess I'll find out then what I will be Doing for my pre-op diet. Fingers crossed

My surgery date is July 18th. I am on 1200 calories (focusing mostly on protien) until the 10th, when I will be full liquid. Not as hard as I thought so far but the full liquid will be an adjustment. I find the Slim Fast 20g protien are more filling than the other choices. I am so excited and these forums are a blessing. I have a niece who had surgery last November and she is down 85lbs. She has been such a big help to me. Positive thoughts to all you July sleevers!

Why do you feel July is a good month? I have thought about what month would have been best.

I am having my surgery on the 23rd and just started my 2 week pre-op Optifast diet on Sunday (8th).

So far so good but yesterday was rough, I was truely hungry and the shakes were not cutting it....think I drowned myself in Water to compensate. Anyway, I thought I did a good job losing weight on my own over the past 4 months but have dropped 9.5 lbs since starting Optifast on Sunday. I really didn't think I would lose when on optifast because I had lost weight already, boy was I wrong!

Good luck to all of you, gonna be a wild ride!

I am July 19th in Houston! Yippee!

Had my surgery on the 10th and I'm doing good. Everything went well. No issues.

Congrats. Are you home? Still in the hospital? Haven't had mine yet. I have 11 days to go.. But I've read ppl sat walk, walk walk. Feel better soon!

I just had mine on the 10th. I am so sore and the gas is terrible. I hope this gets better soon!!! Trying ot get my water in, but the gas makes it hurt. My insides sound like a science experiment lol!!
