Hi! I'm Nov 27. The day before Thanksgiving. I will have a lot to be thankful for. :-) I am a bandster at the moment and will be revising to vsg. So I already have some experience in wls. I live in Bolingbrook' date=' IL.[/quote']

Hello my name is Teri and I have my sleeve day before Thanksgivings. So don't worry hope to here from you.

It's actually in Plano at Presbyterian

I will be at Plano Baylor!! Congrats

My surgery is November 25th and I am so nervous and scared. I have never had surgery before and I do not know what to expect. I am excited about the new chapter this surgery will bring to my life. I cry every time I think about itdde02

My surgery is the day before Thanksgiving so try not to worry to much but I understand

Today is my 3rd day on the 2 week pre op diet. I have lost 7 pounds as of this morning. YAY! Im doing good' date=' Hungry yes but still Im ok! Good luck everyone starting today. YOU CAN DO IT!!![/quote']

7lbs in 3 days?? That's is awesome!! What is your pre op?

November 8th.... Yes so excited

Anyone have any advice on this 3 week liquid diet? No warning they just called this afternoon and said start now.....

Keep busy, don't go to restaurants, carry more protein mix with you than you'll think you need, stay in close contact with the group here, and hold on tight. It's the hardest thing I've ever done. I am on day 9 of a 3 week pre op. Good luck!

Thanks....I'm going to do protein drinks the times a day and sugar free jello and take one day at a time....November 12th will be here soon!!!

Just received phone call that surgery is approved! Trying to figure dates out now!

Woohoo! Congratulations!

Hey there. I had the same concerns, but I joined the group anyway. I logged in as my husband to see if would show and it did show "recent groups" that I had joined. So I left the group until I can figure out privacy settings so that no one can see the group. It's a very active group and it seems to provide a lot of valuable information but I only plan on sharing this information with those closest to me and not my "68 friends" on FB.

If anyone knows of the settings I need to apply for it not to show at all to anyone, please let me know. I;d like to re-join but only if it is truly private and confidential.

Susan.

If you look at the left side of your profile and scroll down to recent activities.. then look for the small x on the right hand side you can click it and it choose hide option..if you do that to more than one post it will give you the option to hide all recent activity... none of my friends got a timeline notice when i joined. If you are still nervous then I agree with another poster, go ahead and get an ID just for the support site.. :)

Awesome advice......... Thank you

If you want to start something early try 3 shakes during the day (breakfast , lunch , snack) then a low carb dinner (about 400 cals) that will keep you under 1 k and should help you lose weight ..
