Did anyone else have to practice chewing and not drinking for 1/2 hour before meals? I'm nervous about this!

I practiced twice and failed miserably. I've decided that I'll do better when I know there are consequences.

I've been trying to chew slower... so hard, need to be more mindful of this. Haven't started separating drink and food yet but thanks for the reminder.

Monday is my pre-surgery appointment and surgery on the 18th!

June 5th is coming fast! I have spent the last month doing the "lasts" like I do whenever I start a diet and have gained weight according to my dr.'s scale. I finally figured out how to do a ticker and am using my own home scale as my guide. I know that these are not "really" my lasts but it seems like such a long time before I will be able to eat normal (albeit) smaller meals again. I am really kind of nervous but so ready to take the first step...Dr. said to start the pre-op diet 5 days out but I started today...just want to get in the right mindset and try to lose a little before the surgery. Today wasn't too bad until I had an appointment in the afternoon and I forgot to bring a shake with me. By the time I was done my appointment' date=' I was getting the shakes and a headache and felt like passing out but I still had to stop at the grocery store to pick up the stuff for my diet...soon as I got home I chugged a Protein Shake and then made some Soup. I laid down to try and calm my head and fell asleep. Headache is now a little better Anyone else do the "lasts" like I did?[/quote']

I have been for the last month and I don't even have my date yet...bit I have alternated with shakes or regular soups....but I should know it by Monday I HOPE!!!

I'm a June 11 too. (Atlanta area) I am also excited' date=' nervous, and scared. This is a huge journey. I know it is the right thing for me and others to do, but anxiety is still there. I know WE can do this. Buddies are great. Wishing you a smooth easy first day of prep shakes.[/quote']

June 11th for me too!

Hi June sleevers! First off good luck to those of you going in the next few days I can only imagine the anxiousness and excitement because I literally almost threw up today when my revision date was confirmed. I am having the band out and sleeved all in one on June 25th. Still have an EGD and preop labs to do but then I am set so excited and nervous and some other feelings that are hard to put words to...

Oh and hello to my sleeve siblings!!
