Having my GS surgery in March

After careful consideration I have decided to have a Gastric Sleeve Surgery. My date is March 19 and I would like to connect with people who already had their surgery and people having their surgery in March. Thank you all for your support. Many blessings to all.

I am on 3/3... doing well on pre-op.. excited about my surgery. I am ready, its been a long time coming and I'm ready!

How are your pre-op diets going? I started mine 3/17 and as of Friday I am down 6 lbs its much easier than I expected

I'm on day 5 and doing much better now. The first couple of days were rough as I had a headache I couldn't get rid of and was just feeling soooo crabby. I'm doing great now and as of this morning am down 5 pounds. At the moment I am allowed a dinner of 4-6 oz of lean protein and a cup and a half of green veggies. Starting Wednesday I go to liquids only. I'm hoping that won't be a huge deal since I've already detoxed off of the carbs/sugar. My surgery is 3/5 and it still doesn't seem real to me yet.

I'm on March 14 in Mexico with Dr. Ortiz!

Hey There! I wish all the best with their surgeries coming up soon! I am on my pre op diet right now and its kinda of a challenge with having to cook for my husband and 3 kids! but I'm doing it! My surgery is Sat march 8th in TJ! I am so nervous and excited! We are driving to the border & getting picked up there! I can't wait to stay at the Marriott and go out and check it all out! I have been on my coordinators Facebook page meeting & seeing all the people so happy after surgery, looking fabulous and cheerful! They are all getting exceptional care! I have spoke to a lot of the patients and seen their pictures and videos! They also all get taken out to shop and hang out with the staff! I am so happy I am not jumping through Kaisers Hoops to get approved for my surgery. I have researched for months and feel so confident with my decision! Prayers are sent out to everyone in our Journey to a healthier US! God Bless.... B)

My operation is scheduled for the 3rd March, I started my pre-op diet on the 17th February but thankfully its not a liquid diet, I am allowed 70g of carbs a day so I can have a poached egg for breakfast with a slice of toast, 125g of Ham or lean deli meat with salad for lunch and then turkey, chicken or lean meat for evening meal with 30g of pasta or 40g rice (dry weight) with plenty of green veg so I consider myself really lucky as the drop in carbs caused me to have headaches and be shakey for the first couple of days but I feel great now thankfully and looking forward to beginning my new life.
