Calling January Sleever????

[Zzzombrie 86]

I'm scheduled for Jan 7th with Dr. Ariel Ortiz. I have to switch from Atkins to 3 shakes a day with unlimited veggies tomorrow. I've got 5 lbs left to lose before surgery. I've also been having some trouble finding an incentive spirometer at the stores. Where'd you find one and how much did you pay?

So today is my first day on my official preop diet it is going just fine although I thought I was tired before oh man I'm really tired now. I feel like someone put a sleeping pill in everything I drink. I think it is kinda due to lack of carbs but I will get through it and just deal. I hope you ladies are having an easier time then me about it. 3 wks and one day til surgery ugh hurry up December!

Welcome to the world of a narcoleptic sister! Well sort of. Definitely the tired all day part. I'll probably be catatonic when I start my liquids tomorrow.

2 wks and 5 days left I'm ready soooo ready that I don't want to do anything else but that!

Tentatively scheduled for the 12th. I got approved by my current insurance toward the end of dec. but come January we have a new insurance. So here is hoping that the approval gets transferred easily enough.

Merry Christmas January sleevers!! Have wonderful holiday. If your one of the lucky ones ( like me!) pre op dieting, don't think about the food just the family and friendships you share!!! Here's to the last holiday in these "fluffy" bodies!! 2015 is gonna be a great year! Cheers to you all... ????????

For those of us on Pre op don't sweat that you can't be gluttonous on Christmas and for everyone else in general THIS is the year we can actually keep our new years resolution of losing some weight! Happy holidays!

Merry Christmas ???? January sleevers! Everyone on preop diets you got this just think of the benefits. And I agree we are actually keeping our New Years resolution ????????. I have been so blessed to find this forum.

I won't have any trouble watching what I eat this Christmas. I've got some sort of stomach flu. .I think I'm going to just go ahead and try to start liquid diet since I have to on Jan 1st anyway....Merry Christmas!

Wishing everyone of us January Sleevers a very Merry Christmas. My wish for you is to enjoy time with family and friends, stay safe, healthy and an amazing post-op experience!

????????????⛄️ good luck!

mmm so this morning I was doing nothing and got an itch in my belly button and noticed a small lump in my belly button a painful one. I think I might have a umbilical hernia...this will really suck if I have one cause I can not have surgery with it. I will have to push mine off for awhile. Guess I'll know before my date is set.
