Hi Susan - I'm a May 12-er also. Good luck, from Dallas area.

Just had a pre-surgery pulmonary appointment. That spawned two more appointments....*sigh*....1 - A sleep study and 2 - some further breathing testing.

At least with all of the pre-op checks I feel like I will have been evaluated well prior to heading into surgery.

Hello, my surgery date is May 12. Just waiting on insurance approval.

Hello to you both - Susan and Sean. I'm a May 12th sleever too and am in the Dallas area. Surgeon is Dr. Kim, though. Just started the liquid diet today - no solids, just BariEssentials shakes and non-calorie liquids. The shakes are making me so queasy, though, and I'm constantly on the verge of being sick. I've done some research online and it seems as though most pre-surgery diets permit solids. Are y'all on pure liquids? Lauren

Today is the first day of my 3 week liquid diet. I'm tired and gassy. Is that normal on the first day?

I just started my liquid diet today and I'm also really tired. Not so much gassy as nauseated. Yuck! Hard to watch the kids eat pizza for dinner tonight, too!

I have my preop with my surgeon today and it's less than 2 weeks til surgery. Did that keep me away from Girl Scout Cookies? No it did not.

I have to say what makes me nervous is not the procedure itself but anticipating post op pain, post op feelings if deprivation and concerns that I won't be able to handle the post op diet. Anyone else feel like that?

Also I'm obsessing on Vitamins. What brand, how many milligrams, what type.... I wish I could be like you guys and clean house with anxiety instead of getting stuck on details.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.

      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!!
