Hello Everyone!

My name is Alia, and I will be having my sleeve done 23 August 2012. I am very nervous, yet excited at the same time. I cannot wait until the day arrives, so that I can begin my new life.

Today is the first day of my 2 week liquid diet. I am doing great so far.

Is anyone else going to Mexico for their sleeve the same time I am? Nice to meet everyone, feel free to say hello, and add me to your August sleeve list. :)

Newbie to the site, but loving all this info I get from everyone. I'm an August sleever as well. Aug 21st is my big day with Dr Srikanth at St Francis Hospital in Federal Way, WA. So so excited, thankfully nerves haven't kicked in just yet. But I can only imagine how I will feel on surgery day.

Has anyone started their liquid diets yet? I have, and gosh, I never felt so empty before. I have been trying to fill up on Protein Shakes and broth. After I eat, at that particular time, it does fill me up, then shortly within 4 or 5 hours later, I am empty again. I hope everyone else is doing well with their diets whilst preparing for their surgeries. I am so thrilled about this journey that I am about to embark on. I cannot tell everyone enough, how long that I have waited for this upcoming event to arrive. Does everyone else have the butterflies yet?

I start my liquid diet tomorrow. My dr requires it 10 days before surgery. I did this a couple weeks ago as well and definitely had the empty feeling too. I drink a ton and ton of Water to keep me full and try to keep myself occupied so I'm not thinking about the whole not eating part. I don't do much broth because it actually makes me feel sick after I drink it. Which is weird cause most people say it helps with the nauseousness and keeps them full. But then again when have I not been an odd ball. Lol my dr said if I get that hungry I can always add in a 4th Protein Shake. No butterflies yet but I know they will be coming. Getting so so excited. ????

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?
