I am scheduled for June 8th and have just 2 more pre req appointments left. No worries here. I'd love to hear from others. Hw 234 height 5ft4. Cw 219 and losing...

Hello everyone, my surgery date is June 5th CW 212, CH 5'2 goal weight my surgeon predicts 145-150 which is my size about 10years ago before I becase preganant with my daughter. I have been looking back thinking how great I felt with that weight (145).

We will see and best of luck to everyone!!

June 8th! 5'7 210 now goal 140!!! 21 days and counting! I can not wait! Good luck everyone!

I'm June 9th! Highest Weight was 260 and I'm down to about 235. I'm hoping to lose another 5 before surgery.

My doctor said an ideal goal weight would be 140-ish. I'd be happy just to get under 200, haha

I hear ya, I am sure I would be thrilled with 150. The lowest I ever got on a diet was 157, so I definitely want to be below that.

Is everyone here required to do a liquid diet? My doctor is not requiring it for some reason.

Some do some don't. Some surgeons want the liver to shrink smaller so they can see the pouch better.

@@carebear42, I am not required to do a liquid diet, just low fat/carb, high Protein for 10 days to shrink my liver. I am pretty sure I would die on a liquid diet :-)

I have to start full liguid only 4 shakes a day and clears till surgery on the 9th. It's a small sacrifice to make....I hope.

I'm having a sleeve on June 1. Weight 227 ht 5'4". I have been on my liquid diet for 5 days now. ????

I am June 8! Very excited! Two weeks tomorrow also a little nervous. I am having a revision band to bypass. I cannot wait to start my weight loss journey.I am in Texas Corpus Christi to be exact. Any Texans here? Good luck to all June surgerys!

I'm June 1st 5"1 about 240 now. I just want to get into the "normal" BMI which for me is 132 If I can keep it there or below I'll be happy! I really wish I knew what size jeans that would be?

Not much longer! I am June 3rd. Of course now I am getting a sore throat. I CANNOT get sick! Ugh. I am so excited though. This WLS has consumed my every thought. I'm sure I'm driving my hubby crazy!

@@carebear42, isn't is crazy how it consumes your life? A friend of mine had bypass back in February and I do not remember her talking about it as much as I think about it, so sometimes wonder if it's just me. I think about something related to it, every single minute of every single day!!

I am not nervous yet, but I wonder what the night before is going to be like. I can imagine I will get little to no sleep.

This was my last full weekend of freedom (before my pre-op diet), so we did go out to eat quite a bit, just hitting up those favorites one last time :-)

Yippie more June dates I am also scheduled for June 9th. May 27th is my last appointment,,,I think I will be put on Protein shakes then.......... I have a severe bleeding disorder so they have been giving me platelet tranfusions weekly to prepare me for June 9th.................... I am barely 5''3..........so I am not sure about a goal weight.....
