Definitely feeling the same. At the same time not looking forward to watching everyone eat great BBQ and not being able to. Oh well worth the sacrifice

I'm having my sleeve surgery july16 I'm on liquid diet for 12 more days what all are people eating ? Is anybody eating lentil Soup?

I literally thought the exact same thing less that 5 minutes ago!!! I am thrilled to know that this time next year I will have completely transformed my way of life. 4 weeks from today I turn into Slenderella.

What a happy thought! Fingers crossed my insurance approves and this is the last 4th of July for me at this weight too!

When I posted this I didn't think about people being on the pre-op liquid diet :/ (duh!)...I'm sure it's a tough day but bittersweet!

Slenderella I'm 30 days out too!...Good luck to everyone!

Yeah, I'm on the clear liquid diet too so no BBQ for me. But I'm getting sleeved on Friday and it's totally worth it!!

I originally anticipated a Nov surgery date and I've been contemplating hard about moving it up. I would hate to go through the holidays and be sick at the sight of food. I can't wait though, by next 4th we will be in better health and shape!

YES!!!!! This totally went through my mind. So excited for all the changes the sleeve will bring to my life.

SweetTee, my date will most likely be in November too, and that is exactly how I feel!

I'm a little worried about being on liquids/mushies over Thanksgiving, Christmas, AND New Year's. Sigh. It will all be worth it though, because on those holidays the year after I'll be a skinny, healthy lil beezy

TransformerOfYoungMinds you are so right. It will totally be worth it. I can't wait until my day comes. I'm so looking forward to life after my sleeve. I can't wait to feel better about myself as a whole.

I am looking forward as this being my last "summer of discontent" i plan to be wearing pretty shift dresses and shorts and halters. My son graduates from International Film School in Cuba next year and I plan to show up, hubby on my arm feeling good about myself in front of my ex and his wife. This is my goal. No pain (arthritis) and back to feeling good about myself. Because right now, I am miserable and sad. Working on my pre-reqs hoping itll be done soon.

Good luck everybody mine is July 16 sleeve dr v in char nc ????
