i'm having mine on June 25th as well :-) I started my week of pre-op and I feel like I am STARVING! LOL (i know it's mental... and I know this is soooooo worth it.) Im excited and a little scared too, but I try to put it out of my mind... :-)

I'm the 25th, too. My doc doesn't do a pre-op diet. Just asks that I not gain a whole lot between my consult and the surgery. Had a 4 hour pre-op, hospital registration meeting yesterday. They bring in all the folks scheduled for a given week at the same time. Then they had a taste test of some high Protein items, Vitamins, etc. I didn't think I was nervous, but I'm not sleeping and wanting to eat anything I see, which tells me I am. Every so often I just think "what the heck am I doing!!" But I still believe its the right decision. So glad to have fellow sleevers to talk to!!

I had surgery on 6/25 as well. Still on the liquid postop diet. Can't wait until I can chew something!

I hear you about chewing!! I find myself getting so confused about what I can and can't have at this point. Living on green tea!

I am soooooo sick of this flippin liquid mess!! Arrrrgh!!! It feels like I've been "drinking" something and not "chewing" something for forevvvvvvver!!!!! I find myself still "desiring" unhealthy stuff though ... ( and truly realize the WHOLE world revolves around food...... That I CAN'T have!!!????). Ready to get to soft foods sooo badly, but in the meantime trying to figure out healthier alternatives & put that food devil -->????, that sits on my shoulder, the heck OFF!! Pray for me y'all ..... Yesterday was TERRIBLE..... Felt like crying as everyone ate delicious food for the 4th.*le sigh*

Every time I try anything thicker than Clear Liquids it hurts. Guess my tummy is still swollen and I'm asking too much of it by trying full liquids. Not sure which is worse - real hunger or head hunger! Trying to be gentle with myself and not get discouraged.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
