Looking for november buddies. I got my approval today. Im so excited!!! Nov 4th here I come!!!!

Thanks everyone it is so greatly appreciated. ...I have a very small support group....so ive looked to all of you as extended support I never knew that people like u exsisted ...im trying to stay calm I asked my Dr. If could get something for anxiety he says no...to me my anxiety may get the best of me......sitting in the waiting room with j u st me and my thoughts. ...thats nit always a good situation......smh

11 days til I start mine ... I'm so glad my surgeon doesn't make you do a liquid diet he just puts you on a vegetarian low fat diet for 2 weeks prior to surgery...I'm still gonna cut way back with solids

3 more days and then I get sleeved on Friday 11/1. I'm now ready!

7 more days. Yay 11/4!

You will do great my prayers are with you

Thank you! That means a lot to me.

I can't wait to be there, when I get my approval my dance party begins

So liquid diet sucks. I knew it would but mannnn lol. My preop diet says I'm allowed 3 shakes a day, 64 oz of water and I can have up to 4 pounds of steam green veggies per day.

Now I know it says I'm allowed, but I feel like the veggies are cheating in a way. Someone free my guilty conscious if I eat green food! I just wanna masticate something

3 more days and then I get sleeved on Friday 11/1. I'm now ready!

Me too words cant exolain my nervousness and anxiety

I totally agree. I was emotional and anxious the last few days. Now I am good.

I have surgery on 11/4 and woke up with a cold. I'm not on special diet just high protein low carbs but don't know if I can take meds so close to surgery date. Anyone know of safe meds to take!??

Defiantly ask your surgeon you don't want anything hindering your special day.

Yeah that's what I thought. I am terrified this cold will set me back and I am so ready to have the surgery done. Thanks for your input ☺️

We'll here I go! First thread post for me. I go in the morning for an EGD. Begin my 2 week liquid diet on Nov 12 and go under the knife Nov 26. Going to be hard missing the holiday celebrations gathered around food. I just have to keep telling myself that this needs to be done so I can be around longer to enjoy more holidays to come with my kids.

Tomorrow is day 5 of my pre diet.,.cant believe I've made it this far without cheating...not one single morsel of food...no longer have a headache like day 1...I'm ready for 11/4 to come!!!!
