So I have my surgery date for the 6th October 2014, sososo excited! Yet strangely nervous. I'm kind of in the "food funeral" stage at the moment, feel sort of guilty. So I have 2 months to slap myself into gear. Anyone else with an October date?

started my 2 week liquid diet yesterday!vsg oct 6!!

I'm less than a month out now (October 22nd). I think the waiting game is the hardest part.

My date is Oct 15th, nervous as well!

I am 10/23. Good luck!!!

I started out in the October sleevers forum hoping for an October date, but still start my pre-op diet on Oct 24th. My surgery is officially ON for the 4th of November. Good luck to all the October sleevers! Of course, they'll keep me in mind if anyone cancels their surgery for October, but at least I know I'm finally on the schedule. Prayers for all for a safe surgery and speedy recovery.

I admire your confidence. If I joined the forum based upon when I thought I'd be getting it I would be in June lol

I'm two weeks away, started pre-op diet today (low carb diet)! Excitement continues to build, I'm so ready for October 7th!!

My surgery is scheduled for Oct. 9. I am so excited! Have to start my pre-op diet tomorrow. Four shakes a day and a low carb meal. It is finally feeling real.

October 8th.

October 20th

October 6th and I completely feel the same about the "food funeral" I really don't feel strong enough for this 2 week post op diet

You will do great, ItsJessica!!

I felt the same way. But once I started seeing the lbs drop (5 and Im on day 5) it made it a little easier. Im scared of the liquid phase and traveling with my husband and only liquids to sustain me (Im Oct 5th!)

I'm on day 4 of the diet and I'm cheating a bit. The soups I'm eating still have the bits in them and I don't have strainer so I eat it all. I know once I start the clear liquids, I can't eat them only broth so that helps. I'm seeing the lbs drop though. 5 in 4 days. I'll get it together, I have to.

October 20, 2014 is my date .Laynie, we are on the same date!!

So we are :-) I am getting nervous excited
