Let's Try Again for Florida Sleevers

Hello to all,

I am having my sleeve surgery on March 11th and I am very exicted. I am just checking to see if anyone else in the great state of Florida is also having surgery in March. I live near Sarasota and have lived here for about 3 years. I moved to Florida from Pennsylivania and I am loving the beaches and beautiful weather. I started my pre-op diet 7 days ago and have lost 12 pounds so far. If you are interested in making a connection let me know. Hope to hear from you.

Hi there and good luck on your upcoming WLS. No my dr. did not have me do a 2 week liquid pre-op diet. I see that some doctors do. I am amazed at how different these doctors can be. I past week in a half I have been on a liver detox diet using regular food that my dietition told me to eat. Since I am in my last week before my surgery I am not allowed white potatoes, caffeine of any kind ie: coffee, tea, diet soda and candy or anything with chocolate. So, I have been drinking water, decaf coffee and tea, water with crytsal light and caffeine free root beer. I sure hope this helps, Since you are still a month away I am sure your surgeon or the dietition that works with your surgeon will be letting you know what to eat the last 2 weeks before your surgery. I sure hope this helps you and if I can help again please let me know. I am here for you. Cheryl

Can anyone tell me how to do the cute images with BMI on your posts?

Thx!

How are you doing with your sleeve? Did you go to Dr Sebastien? I did. I also live in your area as well. Let me know if I can be of assistance. I'm 13+ months out from my sleeve and almost at goal.
