Hello. Anyone with the same or close surgery date wanna go through it together, share experience on here?

I just realized the last shake had way way to many carbs! Thank god it was only a sample

The very low carb thing is required to shrink the liver. If your doc says low carb, definitely go low carb! Mine basically has me on a three week modified atkins: two shakes, and a lean protein for dinner. I cheated with a banana today and will again tomorrow for breakfast, only because I want to make sure my potassium levels are good for my pre-admission blood test tomorrow (gotta stay on that potassium and calcium!)

Hi I'm new to this site today. My sleeve is scheduled for July 16. Would love to be involved here just trying to figure it out. :-)

Welcome. Love to hear about you!

Hi. Well, I started my journey January 28 this year I've lost 59 pounds on the medically supervised diet and have decided to move forward to the sleeve on July 16. Very excited to continue this path. I'm 50 years old and live in the area.

Do you count your protein shakes in with your liquid intake? I drank 32oz of water and had 27oz of protein shakes.

Thank you ladies!! I have been drinking more then I thought ☺️

Hi auntie Linda I'm the 16th too

July 23rd here.....i sure would like a pal. I am scared! Scared of surgery in general and how the pain will be when i wake up, I also worry about nausea.

Hello

I am scheduled for July 21st. Will be having my broken band removed - the tubing broke lose. And at the same time a sleeve. Excited and scared at the same time.

I start my two day liquid diet tomorrow and surgery Friday!!!!!! I am soooooo ready! I already started my lifestyle change and I am very happy with it. I won't lie, there's always temptation. Then I think about why I'm doing this and overcome temptation. Good luck everyone! We are all doing this with goals in mind. Stay focus as you reach your goals. I am truly happy for everyone! Any pain nausea whatever issue we have, we will overcome. Stay positive!
