Just looking for people on the same date!

I am one day before. Having it done in Mexico:-)

I'm January 14th! Do you have a pre-op diet?

Yep! A two week clear liquid that includes protein shakes. I'm pretty used to doing shakes all day long then a semi-low carb dinner. I had a stomach bug over Christmas so I decided to go ahead and start liquid diet yesterday. But this morning my little boy made breakfast so I had an egg sausage and cheddar cheese. Jan 1st I've got to go by the rules! I'm just apprehensive about headaches I may get cuz I'm very susceptible to those and about nausea that I've read about on pre-op diets. We're tough surley we can do it!

Sounds pretty similar to mine. I'm planning to kick it on on Jan 1, too! Crazy to think that it's coming up so quickly. I'm going to tackle the headaches with coffee, lots of Water, and advil if necessary!

What shakes do you like? I have some premier Protein here and just ordered a few new kinds from supplement warehouse.com to try. (They have some great closeout deals!)

It seems like forever for me because I started this journey in March and was approved in September. But I'm very thankful that is almost, really, finally here! I have EAS Carb Control - any flavor, Nectar Caribbean Cooler, Nectar Vanilla Bean Torte. P.S. I am not picky at all whatsoever so I hope it stays that way post op. I want some Premier but have to drive 40 miles to get it in bulk, to expensive in my town, I will look at Supplement Warehouse. Never heard of it before. Thanks!

I'm having surgery January 14, kinda nervous about 2week pre-op diet????

My surgery is 7th jan and I'm 4 day in to my pre op diet, absolutely petrified about the op ???? (uk)

I found you ????

@@downsizingdiva I wanted to start a January 15th forum myself but this thing wouldn't let me! It's awesome that you made one. Gets me even more excited!

I am also being sleeved on January 14, in Mexico. Would like to hear from others.

Surgery on January 12, 3rd day into pre-op liquids. It's not too bad. Headache on day one but other than that, very doable!! Stay strong!! It will be worth it!

I'm scheduled for jan 27th so keep me posted please, nervous about pre and post dieting and surgery frightens me but it must be done

I have created a group on my fb if anyone wants to join, it's easier to follow. I have been posting things about myself and will post through out my journey.

Scheduled for jan 20th! YAY!

Feeling very anxious, and all I want to do is eat! I am heavy because of many different reasons health, bad eating habits and genetics. But I have never been a big eater and ate all day. Sometimes I can eat one meal a day and be good. But since I know I have to do the preop diet all I can do is think about food and eating. Uugghh ????
