I finally got my date today! I will be getting my surgery on March 9th!!! I am so excited and 100 things are running through my head! Any advice from people who have already had the surgery? Any one else getting theirs done in March??

I was approved yesterday. I start pre-op liquid diet on 3/12 and surgery is scheduled for 3/26. This is the year of shedding. I lost my mother in December after a horrendous battle with brain cancer. As much as I love her, she added a lot of negativity to my life. I quit "closet smoking" on January 15 - cold turkey. I'm slowly weaning off my psych meds. Now it's time for the physical weight to be shed. This is MY year. Good luck to all!

Deetz71 sounds like you've had quite the year! Congratulations on making yourself a priority! Wishing you much deserved success!

How's it going March Sleevers.

I am scheduled for surgery on March 25th. Anyone else out there having surgery on that day?

March 23rd here. I still haven't found a surgery buddy.

I got my dates confirmed. March 16 begins my liquid diet, March 17 pre-op and March 30th surgery. OMG, I can't believe the wheels have been set in motion. In a matter of weeks, my life will change for the better.

Hey @@MaryC94 I start my liquid diet also on the 16th and my surgery is the 30th as well. I finally found someone on here with the same date as me. Have skinny dreams I have.

Had surgery Monday just got home now feeling pretty good. Just had my first protein shake, went down pretty good

Hi @@sassycas45, how ironic! I was just thinking I don't have a surgery buddy, like I've been seeing on the forums. This is great that we have the same dates and same goals. What are you doing to prepare?

I'm on the 24th..

@@MaryC94 so far i have been stocking up on the Premier protein shakes i also got some whey gas x chicken broth my preop is liquids and vegetables. I also cut back on lots of food in the past 2 weeks decaf coffee fat free creamer etc... what have you done to prep thus far?

I'm on the 24th too! Almost made it through day two of pre-op diet. I lost 1.6 pounds yesterday which is a nice bonus!

I start 2 week pre-op diet tomorrow, surgery on the 19th. Nervous as ever but cant wait to have ankles again...lol...no seriously though..it'll be nice to eat absolutely nothing and feel stuffed!

Tomorrow I will be going to Mexico for my sleeve on Friday! So excited!

I'm sooo excited for you!! Please let us know how everything goes! I will be headed there on the 22nd for my surgery on the 23rd. I hope that you are able to rest. I imagine you are a ball of nerves. Come back and share every last detail!! Good luck!
