I would like to schedule my surgery for the first full week in March once my insurance is approved, any other March Sleevers in the building?

Good luck! (And to all of you going in today!) Hope everyone who has been sleeved already is feeling well!

It's 4:15am...must be at the hospital at 5:30am. Kind nervous but excited. Dr has 3 surgeries today. And of course I'm #3!

I'm having the sleeve march 11th! Very excited/nervous. I'm only 19 years old!

How exciting for you. I wish I could have had this procedure when I was your age. Best wishes

March 28th in Paris, France. Hope to get down to 120 lbs.

I sent you my info . Your on the liquid diet? I lost 40 lbs before my liquid diet then when I got on it I cheated and gained 10 pounds but that was 9 days ago when I went to get my blood tested. I had my last blood check yesterday and I had lost 15 pounds in 9 days from just liquid no cheating. The best thing to drink is carnation instant breakfast. With skim milk. It's the best one I've had. The other ones taste like protein lol ish! Your not only hungry mentally but you physically get hungry. I felt sick for awhile. But now I'm just pumped to get it. Stay strong don't cheat! My doc said you will know your livers shrinking if you lose a significant amount of weight during the liquid diet. Hope it helps (:

I'm very excited. And very thankful that I get this opportunity that god has givin me. (:

Save the best for last....Good Luck

Im not on a liquid diet, its just high protein low carbs. I cheated ONE time a few days ago but I had lost since then and it was VERY small amount. I decided for these last few days I am just going to do clear liquid and hope it gets me where I need to be by Tuesday.

I am on Day 9 of Pre Op diet, I still get hungry and it is still hard. I think it is both physical and mental. The not chewing part is weird to me. I guess because I am so used to chewing it feels weird not to chew. I feel different. I think your body goes into some sort of weird place after 9 days of no real food:). My job is ordering BBQ take out today since it's payday. I'm usually the first one to place an order and when I declined, people asked was I OK? LOL. Little do they know!!! Went to Pre-op appt yesterday lost 7 lbs in a week. March 13 can't come soon enough. I also get gas easier now. I have heard ppl are very gasey after being sleeved. Do you think the pre-op diet has anything to do with the gas? Good luck to everyone being sleeved today and speedy recovery to all March sleevers!!
