Alright December Sleevers, I'm hoping that this title brings more people in so we can follow and encourage each other through our journeys.

I am 40. I'm 5'4" and about 308 right now. I'd like to get to a healthy BMI which would be around 145. I'm hoping for a December 4th or 5th date with Dr. William Johnson.

Everyone introduce yourselves!

So excited for you, missmee! Looking forward to hearing from you after your surgery!

Surgery tomorrow. Tried to keep my mind off of it today, but now I'm sooo nervous. I guess it's because my mom just drove into town to be here with me so it's becoming more real. My prayers are with those who are getting sleeved tomorrow too!

Will be thinking of you tomorrow! Positive thoughts your way! Looking forward to hearing from you!

Hi everyone! My surgery date is December 18. I start my pre-op diet on Wednesday. I'm nervous and excited

Surgery in am, gotta be there at 530 am.... nervous!

Wishing you lots and lots of luck and a speedy recovery!

Prayers for all the Dec 2nd sleevers!

I was supposed to start my two week liquid diet tomorrow but went ahead & started today. I stocked up on about 4 or 5 different protein drinks so hopefully I will like one of them. Surprisingly, since I'm so overweight, I am a very picky eater. Not sure how well I'm going to do on this diet! Yikes!

Hi everyone, I'm new here and my surgery is scheduled for 12/17 in Charlotte NC. I just sent a request to be added to the FB group; liquid diet starts on this Tue for me and I would love to have others to talk to on this journey...

Hello!! My surgery is in the morning, finishing my 7th day of pre op liquid diet. You will find a lot of really helpful posts here to get you through your pre op diet. Welcome and good luck to you!

Hi all, I'm hoping I can join this thread, as I was given a surgery date of December 17th and would like a support group to officially join! I need to go back and catch up with all of the comments, but GOOD LUCK TO ALL having their surgery this week!!!

Prayers for all the Dec 2nd sleevers!

I started mine of Saturday and it is going surprisingly well. I had enough time to wrap my head around it. I have found that I really don't like the Body Fortress Whey protein in Strawberry from Wal-Mart (my NUT suggested it). I also really don't like the Premier Protein from Sams (a LOT of people on here like it and I was sure it would be wonderful!). I have found that I LOVE Unjury Chocolate Splendor. I also have had chicken broth made with Better Than Boullion paste. Today I tried the Swanson Infused broth Mexican Tortilla, and really, really disliked it. I also generally don't like yogurt but can eat it when necessary. However, buying the light versions, bleh. I tried the Dannon Light and Fit and the Dannon Light and Fit Greek, and really don't like either.

So far I am happy with Unjury Chocolate Splendor shakes, unsweetened applesauce, chicken broth and lots of water. Fortunately I don't need a wide variety of foods.
