This whole process has been REALLY fast for me. I decided to do the sleeve one day had an appt the next week and 2 weeks later I'm having surgery ( sept4th). Anyone else similar to me?

Same thing for me. the decision and the surgery is all happening in the space of about 6 weeks. I feel like if I don't commit to it right away, I won't do it.

Hi everyone I am new to this as well dde0a I am also a September sleever! Surgery date is September 18th with Kaiser Southbay Ca. My birthday is on September 29th so this is a great birthday present for me!!!!!!!! I don't have to do a 2 week liquid diet, but my Surgeon did ask that I loose 10 more lbs by the 12th of Sept when I have my last appt with the RN. So I was wondering if anyone can give me any tips on how to loose the 10lbs or more by then. I am so excited for my journey to a healthier me! dde04

Congratulations to EVERYONE of you.. We are almost there.

Hiii my fellow September sleevers! I will be sleeved on September 17. My liquid diet begins on September 3. I'm nervous and excited at the same time.

My liquid diet will consist of the following:

  • Water, crystal light, unsweetened tea
  • Broth, canned Tomato soup
  • Sugar-free popsicles
  • Protein shakes (Muscle Milk, InvisaWhey, Slimfast)

It's going to be an interesting 2 weeks, but I'm ready!

We will be sleeved the same day! Best of luck to you. When do you start your liquid diet? Maybe we can be support buddies. I know I'm going to need some support to get through two weeks of a liquid diet. I start mine on September 3.

September 17 for me!!! I am so excited. Best wishes to everyone. :)

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!
