Looking for 10/13 surgery buddies

Hi everyone!

My surgery is on 10/13. I have gone to all my appointments and fine everything required for surgery.

I'm feeling superrrr excited and can't wait till Monday.

Ps. This pre-op diet SUCKS, but I'm sticking to it 100%.

What's your story?

  • Hi Marielbx, I'm with u on the 13th. Like you, getting really excited! I've had to do a 2 week liquid diet; I think yesterday was hardest for me, I was just hungry ALL day!! I got through it though,

  • I'm also on the 13th!!!! Super excited, but nervous. I got all of my test results back this week. My vitamin d levels were low, so I started taking a supplement. I didn't have to do a pre-op diet; I j

Tomorrow is our big day!!!! Did anyone have to lose a specific amount of wait prior to surgery?

I did not. I had to go to supervised weight visits though for 6 months. Did you have to lose a specific amount?

Sadly, my insurance decided YESTERDAY that they need 3 more months of nutrition classes. I'm very upset, sad... So dissapointed because I've done EVERYTHING. I've been doing my liquid diet & all.

I gave myself Friday & Saturday to cry about it & although I'm still upset I'm staying to get over it.

My surgery has been rescheduled for January 19,15.

With that being said I want to wish ALL of you the best of luck tomorrow! Please keep me posted on your progress!

I am so sorry they decided at the last minute to cancel your surgery. =( Keep us posted on your progress!!!

Im sorry that happend I have not heard about that happening before especially a few days before.

I had to lose 10lbs before surgery but gained 12 during the 5 months of nutrition visits. So it turned into 22lbs. I am going in for the sleeve tomorrow if I lose the last 2.5 lbs today????

Good luck with those last 2.5 pounds!! Hopefully it will come off or be close enough for your surgeon to just give the go ahead =)

thanks, I am trying all the tricks I know ????

OMG, I'm on my way to the hospital!!! Did anyone sleep last night?! I sure didn't. I'm super nervous. Let me know how you guys do today and good luck!

I think I got 3 hours of sleep. I'm freaking out a bit. Leaving for the hospital in an hour. Can't believe it's already here!

And good luck to everyone today!!!

good luck today everyone

Good luck today!!!

On my way to the hospital too. Not too freaked out yet but I still have time ;)

Scheduled for the 21st. How did your surgeries go???

Well, I'm finally home from the hospital. I had to stay two nights bc I was having an issue with nausea. Things are going pretty good now though. Still feel sick if I don't pay attention when I'm drinking.

How is everyone else doing?

I had mine Tuesday and I'm still in the hospital. I am completely fine (no nausea, pain, etc) but the doctor wasn't around today to sign his orders which is why I'm still here. In fact, I have not seen him once since the surgery, which is extremely disappointing. I want to know how everything went!

Anyway, I'm kind of sitting here like "what did I just do to myself?!" But I know that feeling will pass and I'm happy the surgery is over.

Hope everyone else is doing well!!!
