Congrats, mine is 12th as well - on my 6th day liquid diet... I've only been able to eat some carrots here & there per the nurse @ te Dr office... I have lost about 8lbs so far... I'm anxious but nervous @ the same time but ready...

I was supposed to start my pre-op diet on Aug.30th but haven't. It's not a liquid diet just cutting out carbs so I guess I'll start tomorrow with the holidays being over. I'm nervous, excited, anxious, and a whole lot more but I'm going to leave it to God. I've noticed I've been on this website way too much lately, lol. It's addicting.

I'm somewhat ready. I don't have a long pre op- just 48 hours but I'm also starting on Wednesday too. So tomorrow is my food funeral - ok I lied. I have had a six month food funeral . So I'm ready

I'm also sept12th sleever alittle nervous been on liquids since aug30 ready for surgery but nervous about going under

I'm sept 12 th also. Tomorrow I will start my 7 th day of the preop clear liquid diet with protein shakes for meals. I haven't had any food other than jello, sf Popsicles, and broth. It really hasn't been too bad. I'm also pre admitted and ready to go!

Me too!'

Sept.8th for me

I'm September 11th have done a week of pre op shake diet(with a few minor cheats) over the headaches and weakness down 12lbs!!!! Only 1 more week to go!

Im also 12th, I am very excited and scared all at the same time. I am on day 7 of 14 for pre op diet, also with just a few slips. I have lost 11 lbs so far I am hoping for another 9 by next wed but the weigjt loss may have slowed down some not sure yet. I was averaging 1-2 lbs a day so we will see. Good luck to all the sept 12 sleevers. I pray we all have a safe and fast surgery/ recovery.

i am a wreck guys. they already change my time got my paper work in for disablility i am so ready. i v e cheated so many times on this liquid phase. but i met the dr 10lbs lost pluse 6lbs. i want to lose more we shall see.

I am ready but i am also nervous. I know that GOD is going to take care of me because he aint through with me yet. I am pre-admitted and HUNGRY...lol. My surgery is Sept. 17. My family was/is not happy with me doing this but they are supporting me because they know that i have made up my mind. I have learned a lot about myself during this pre-op diet

1. i am truly addicted to food and will have to work on my mental everyday(as i do now)

2. I know that i have strong will power and will be able to get through this successfully

3. i will not be able to do this without my surgery.. i know that it will really aide in my weightloss....

4. I AM PRAYED UP AND READY!!!

I go Sept 11th... My doctor said we didn't have to do a formal pre op diet, just to do whatever diet we've been most successful on thus far... I stopped eating solids today, just in case. Hopefully by Tuesday I'll be completely cleaned out and my liver will have gotten small enough to not cause any issues.

How's are all the Sept 12 sleevers doing?...its down to the wire NOW!...soon we will be on the losers bench! How are the early Sept sleevers doing postop?...
