Well, as it turns out, I haven't gained approval yet, so the 16th is definitely out for me. In fact, it's unlikely it will happen here in December at all.

Best of luck to you all next week and in the coming weeks!

Hi I'm getting sleeved on the 16th also. I'm so nervous today that I'm sitting here eating something that's definitely not on my liquid diet! Good luck everyone.

On Monday I will be at the hospital at 5:15 a.m. - happy for the early time - better to get up and get it over with! I'm in NC - so weird to think that people all over the country are feeling some of the same feelings I am!

Good luck to you all!

Ready for Monday! Was super busy at work today, thank goodness! Have to arrive to hospital at 5:30 am, it's 45 minutes from my house...not sure how much sleep I will get Sunday!

I cheated after getting home and had a slice of deli turkey... Chewed it to mush and thought of spitting it out too. Figured it couldn't do too much damage. Crossing fingers! This liquid diet has not been easy, but I have given it 98% and I think that isn't too bad! As of this morning I have lost 6 pds. Started liquids Monday morning!

Wishing all my fellow 16th sleevers a peaceful weekend and a good experience Monday!!! Get your toes done, but leave big toe unpolished for anesthesiologist!

My daughter is heading over to pick up the perishables and some crackers and such that are not going to be eaten!

My husband and mom will be at the hospital during and daughter will come when she gets out of work.

I had a headache every day for about a week when I started my pre-op diet. I read somewhere that if you eat a lot of carbs then stop that can cause headaches. I was a carboholic.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

        So proud of you Cat. Getting into those smaller size clothes is half the fun isn't it?. Keep up the good work!!!!

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

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      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! 😞

        I may have to have gall bladder surgery during my weight loss surgery. Not thrilled about it either but do not want 2 recovery times. Just want it over with.

        Thanks for your post. I may need to rethink my decision... :(
