My surgery date is September 12, 2014, in Tijuana, Mexico. I'm absolutely scared to death. I'm in the middle of my two week high Protein low carb diet. I start the two week liquid diet next Wednesday. I'm having anxiety over the liquid diet. I don't know how I'm ever going to make it. I'm keeping my fingers crossed that the Grace of God will give me the strength to make it.

My date is September 16. I have all of my approvals and pre-opt testing done and I have lost 20 lbs since June. Now All I have to do is wait for the phone call on the 15th telling me the time to be at the hospital.

I'm lucky that HUMC (a center of excellence) is only ten minutes from my house and my best friend and favorite cousin are coming with me to keep me entertained.

Now, if my nerves don't fray through in the next four weeks, I'll be all set!

Hello, I'm new, and looking forward to learning about the gastric sleeve surgery. My Sleeve is 9-15-14. Anybody have any hints on how to deal with being hungry while on the 2 week pre-op.

Good Luck to all.

Hello, I'm new, and looking forward to learning about the gastric sleeve surgery. My Sleeve is 9-15-14. Anybody have any hints on how to deal with being hungry while on the 2 week pre-op.

Good Luck to all.

I haven't been hungry past the first day or two. I'd honestly prefer not to eat at all. I have to force down my three shakes a day and one salad. I'm supposed to be allowed sugar-free Jello and popsicles as Snacks, but I honestly haven't wanted a snack since the very first day.

That's not to say it's easy at all. It sucks SOOOOO badly. I feel like crap all the time and have NO energy. My stomach always seems unhappy with me, but not "hungry," just acid and gas, which is probably the reason i never want to eat anything.

My surgery is scheduled for September 9th. I am so ready for this change and a new me. Trying to stay positive but my doctors office staff is driving me crazy. Wanted to get the surgery done this month is I could be healed before my kids went back to school, I was told by my doctors nurse that it could happen, turns out my doctor is on vacation the whole month of August. There were so hold ups on the approval process they wanted more documentation which I gave to my doctors office but they never followed up on it. I ended up calling the ins company myself several times ti it got resolved. Now my surgery is scheduled for sep 9 or so I think. I got a message today that I have a post op appt on sep 5 with a different doctor! I'm ready to scream and yell at these incompetent people but first someone has to return my call. Smh! Thanks for listening. I needed to vent

      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.
