I would really like to have a friend or friends are that going through the pre-op process or was just recently sleeved. Someone I can talk to often, and even work out with. Support each other.

Let me know if interested. Thanks.

Lmao, I can just picture myself talking to my supervisor..."hey, I need a little time off for personal health related reasons"

Supervisor: is everything ok

Me: oh yea nothing serious, need to have surgery but nothing big

Supervisor: ok how much time do you need

Me: 12 months

Supervisor: blank stare

The nurse from my surgeons office called me today to ensure I knew what to do the day before. I told her I cheated a few times on the diet, and she told me I will be ok. So I feel a lot better.

Of course you'll be ok dear lol

Today I weighed 244.5 lb. At my preop I weighed 249. I am trying to shed another 5 lbs before surgery. But the scale isn't budging lol. I don't know how much it will matter that I lose 5 lbs, but I will feel so much better to show I at least tried the preop diet lol.

How is everyone doing?

Yes I did. My surgeon is Dr. Holover. I am feeling ok. Unfortunately I fell off the preop diet a few times. How are you doing?

My doctor is Angstadt but they are from the aame office. I'm doing okay, had a few slices of turkey. I figured if I had to have something it was not the worst thing to have. The past 2 days I seem to be feeling a little better, guess we get used to it after a certain point. I'm down 11lbs as of this morning so that positive at least.

Are you nervous? Everyone keeps asking me that but I don't think I really am.

Not from queens but saw your surgeon's names. I just had sleeve surgery with Angstadt on 8/21 at st Charles. Dr Garber removed my lap band at mercy in may. Good luck to you both!!! Hang in there on the liquid diet!
