Wow! 8/6 is gonna be a busy day! Congrats on your date. I've had mine (8/6) for about 2 months and that's a lot of time to percolate on it. Thank God for this board.

Wow! 2 months! You know, I was a little surprised I didn't have to wait longer.....I figured I had more time--but feeling very grateful for the 8/6 date...

I've been playing with Protein Drinks for awhile now...I don't have enough time for a food funeral LOL If I do anything, I may have a meal with Chinese food...I've heard sometimes it doesn't agree post WLS.....not always a healthy choice anyway, so not a big loss LOL

I am new to this site my date is aug 6 im stressing on the two week diet before any pointers would be great!

Welcome! The folks on here are terrific! I really enjoyed this post on attitude, his message is good for everyone: http://www.verticalsleevetalk.com/topic/87330-attitude-your-secret-weapon/page__hl__attitude

this is my plan for the 2 week pre-op diet: understand it fully, make sure all ques. are answered...have everything in the home....make sure there is no excuse that could possibly set yourself up for failure....my day is unpredictable, so I will be sure to have plenty of shakes/water for the day in a cooler whenever I leave the house

probably a little militant, but it troubles me when I read about people not following the pre-op diet 100%....logically, it doesn't make any sense...even worse, I'm scared that I'll find myself in the same boat....

I've purged my cabinets of anything I won't use post-op....setting up an area just for the 2 week stuff...food I have to have for hubby will be out of my sight....

Welcome!

Welcome!

Great idea on purging the cabinets.. I have already started a little.. and dedicated a shelf for 'Mom's Stuff' no one is allowed to eat my stuff.. that way I won't feel the need to go out and buy more..

Getting sleeved 8/15 in Miami. Very excited yet nervous. I started a journal and plan on documenting this metamorphosis of body and mind. Bucket list of food I want to eat and just going with it. One day at a time ...!

I hope I will get a August surgery date also. I decided to travel to WLA instead of the local dr. in my area so I can get in earlier. The Palmdale doctor is taking almost a month off for vacation and some of Sept. surgery schedule is already booked. I see the surgery next Thursday at Kaiser WLA. My drink of choice was juice, so I finally gave it up and drinking more Water. Unfortunately, I still crave it. I have a teenager and adult daughter in the home and that is all that they drink, although it is 100% juice, I know eating my fruit is better for me.

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
