Any August 14th sleeves ?

Hi all, just wondering if anyone is getting sleeved on August 12th I'm in Australia and am hopefully going band to sleeve in the same op. My doc ordered 2 week liquid optifast diet, I started a week early ! Lost 4 kg already. Want to be in the best possible shape with the smallest liver possible for my op ! Anyway if your getting sleeved on August 14th let me know and we can keep a track of each other and see how we go !?

Hey Keish_lorraine ! I'm now the 12th of August, just one day after you ! Where about are you from ? Are you band to sleeve or straight sleeve ? I've been doing really well on my pre-op diet, but had a lapse today,I had 2 vodka and oranges and a BBQ pork bun, Back on the wagon today ! My official 2 week pre-op diet starts on Tuesday next week. My dr says I can have 2 optifast a day and a high protein, no carb / fat dinner per day, like steamed fish and veggies. One minute I can't wait for the op, next thing I am dreading it and want to call it off ! How about you ?

Hello! Sorry for the late response. I'm from Wilmington, Delaware. I'm will be getting straight sleeve surgery. This is my first major surgery, so I'm really nervous. I'm on Day 9 of the liquid pre-op diet. I'm required to have 8 servings of Optifast daily. It's not that bad, but I can't wait to eat real food again.

My surgery is just 6 days out. I had my official hospital check-in yesterday. The nurse called to get some info about my medicines and stuff. She gave me instructions on what to bring with me. This is really going to happen. I'm so nervous yet ready to start this new chapter in my life.
