I'm 10 days post op just tried Greek yogurt for the first time it made me stomach grumble. But today I got on the scale and I'm .4 lbs heavier.... What's going on with me?!! I've lost 28.5 lbs so far. I'm in such a down mood today I was so hoping to be closer to 30lbs today.

I was wondering how you were doing. 28.5 pounds is awesome! !

I'm May 20th! Having my Gallbladder out at the same time.

Pre-Op diet starts May 10th so getting my house in order...literally! Spring Cleaning my life; starting with the house! Closet is cleaned out...got rid of ALOT of clothes and can't wait to get rid of the rest as I shrink out of them!

Purchased my incentive outfit....cute pair of jeans with bling on the butt (this time people will be looking at my butt because I've got cute jeans on rather than granny jeans lol!) and a cute Vikings t-shirt with some bling as well. I'm going to wear those things at the start of Football season if it kills me lol!

Psyching myself up for the pre-op liquid diet...10 days. I GOT THIS!

Good luck everyone!!

Wow!! Tuesday...coming quick :-)

Are you from Minnesota or just a VIkings fan?

I will be one year post-op on Thursday the 8th. I want to tell you this it THE BEST DECISION I EVER MADE. Except having my daughter of course. I have said it before and I will say it again, I would do this surgery once a year if that's what it took to keep my sleeve. I don't regret it for a single second!!! Here's to all the May sleevers, you are doing amazing things for yourself, and your health!! Congrats. :)

OKAY MAY 5 SURGERY BUDDIES, 100% LIQUIDS TOMORROW AND NOTHING BY MOUTH AFTER MIDNIGHT. MY SURGERY IS SCHEDULED FOR 11:15 AM. SORRY FOR ALL CAPS BUT I AM SOOOO SCARED!. CONVERSION TO SLEEVE FROM LAP BAND OVER HERE.

My sleeve was not any worse than the lapband. The worst part is you will have some lingering soreness from the port removal. When I went home on day 3 I felt really good. I actually stopped at the grocery store and bought some supplies.

Yes 100% Liquids today, all ready for my surgery scheduled for 7:30am tomorrow! Good Luck Mat 5th buddies, God be with us all tomorrow! Let's keep this thread going with updates! Cheers!!

Good to hear @@piercedqt78, that gives me some sort of calm. Yes let's keep us all in prays @@Comeflywithme this is a journey that we will be in together.

Good luck to everyone getting sleeved tomorrow. You will be in my thoughts.

Thank you for posting this. It really does make me feel better. I'm 6 days into my preop diet wondering how I will ever be able to eat this little for a lifetime. But I guess having most of your stomach gone helps with this problem. :)
