Hey Everyone!

My name is Katarina, I'm 26 and I live in Minnesota! Just met with my surgeon today to schedule my VSG! I chose Tuesday, September 2nd, the day after Labor Day! My pre-op liquid diet starts Saturday, August 23rd. Wondering if anyone else is having surgery on or around this date? I would LOVE to have a surgery buddy! Someone who is going through what I am, when I am, so we can help each other out! Also, if anyone has an Instagram, my user name is liberianne_gal. I follow tons of amazing men and women who have went through Weight Loss Surgery and have fantastic stories! Can't wait to create my own!

Hope to talk to some of you soon!

Katarina :D

Does anyone with a 09/25 date have to do a preop liquid diet? Mine begins on 09/11. For those already on liquid diets what are you having?

Mine is 9/23 and I have to do a week pre-op full liquid and 3 days before surgery clear liquid only.

My liquid diet will start 9/18. Dr. Kim requires me to purchase it from him. I have my pre-op on 9/9, I'll let you know what I'm having as soon as I get it sweetie. :)

I'm excited, and nervous just hope I do well.

You'll do great...we all will! :)

Started liquid diet today and had my pre-op. Looking forward to September 10.

my is the same day i wish you luck and prayers

I wish I could get mine moved up from 9/23. I have to go to Illinois from 10/16- 11/3 and just wanted more time to heal at home, but doctor office didn't call me back and they need the letter in hand before surgery. My mail was sent to old address and being sent to me already but I probably won't have the letter in hand until Friday :(

Yerrika: thanks you will to each day is getting closer this time next week only 3 days to go then. Glad this next week is a short one for work.

Let's keep in touch. I have mines on the 19th. I haven't found one person that has the same date as me, but you are the closes. I don't know if you have someone doing this with you, but I could sure use the support. When do you begin preop?

Hi Everyone - My sleeve is set for Sept 16 and I just started my liquid diet today. Wondering if everyone's is the same. 4 Protein drinks/day (minimum 16 grms. of Whey Protein, under 150 calories, about 10 1/2 oz./SF jello, SF popsicles, Broth, and all kinds of green veggies - raw or cooked, no oils. If yours are the same - what brands of whey protein are you having? My doctor's office is closed today, but does anyone know if you can have different flavors of extracts - like banana, vanilla, etc? I'm in Michigan and Dr. Matthew Weiner is my doctor. So far, I have had one shake - the Unjury vanilla mixed with almond mile - unsweetened vanilla. Not bad. Yes, it is great to have support, since we're all around the same time. I wish all of you good luck (including myself)!
