My date is the 18th. I've been doing surprisingly well on the pre op diet til today. I had an all day pre op testing and education with nothing to eat or drink since last night. By the time I got done I was so hungry, shaky and had a bad headache so I pulled into McDonald's and got a sandwich. I'm so upset that the whole reason I cheated was because of the testing. I'm getting right back on it tonight but I'm so frustrated.

Good luck! I'm on the 18th too. Just did all my pre op testing yesterday. I know everything I need to at this stage but I am feeling so unprepared for some reason

Congrats!!!

I was Sleeved dec12 and went from around 237 to 219.2 this morning .... Down almost 18 pounds in 13 days ... I am a bit fatigued and still on full liquids but I know I'll feel better with time. Trying my best to keep a positive mindset during this very emotional time.

Merry Xmas Sleevers. Newbie. I am having surgery tomorrow 12/26. I am excited & nervous at the same time.

Went to an open house the 1st week of November. Met with doctor on 11/27. Im a very busy person and with my schedule it was either try and do it at the end of December or wait until June. I wasnt really down for waiting. So got everything done, appointments, psych eval, insurance approved all in 3weeks time. Crazy!!

Starving at the moment. Started Pre-Op stuff today. Just Clear liquids until midnight tonight, and then nothing until Friday, hopefully after the Upper GI looks good. The broth is ok, but Im sure by the time I have my post-op appt on 1/6, I am going to be going nuts!!

Anyways, needed to lose 15-20lbs by surgery. Lost 20lbs in 3 weeks. No fast food, a little exercise, healthy eating, no pop, just Water, Vitamin Water Zero & Powerade Zero. Cheated this past weekend seeing as this was going to be the last weekend for quite some time where I would eat real food....gained 5lbs. haha But I think I will be back down tomorrow morning to by 20.

A little nervous for tomorrow. I have never had a major surgery before, let alone gone under anthesia...so just weary of what to expect. Glad I found this site though. This will help Im sure!!

Welp, made it through the surgery on Thursday. Friday was a blah day. Started drinking Water, but that was about all I wanted to have. They tried some Jello and broth, but it wasn't agreeing with me. Today, much better! I feel pretty good and my incisions don't hurt as much.

      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!!

      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?
