August sleeve buddy?

Looking for an August or near sleeve buddy. I have tried several times to post and it would not let me.

I am in San Antonio getting my sleeve on August 10th if my insurance approves. I am waiting patiently but I just want to know. I have started preparing. I gave up carbonated caffeine sodas- I am a week out now. I am eating yogurt to get use to it and find my favorites. I bought a shaker bottle for my protein drink and ordered the trial pack of unjury. My preop diet starts 7/27, one week from today. Tell me about your preop plans and surgery date. I can use any tips you have to offer.

Hi my surgery date is August 13th. I start my pre-op diet July 31st.

I "officially" started my 2 week pre-op liquid diet today. However...I did a "trial run" last week just to see how difficult it would be and pinpoint my triggers. It actually went pretty well and gave me some idea of the shakes I actually enjoy and not just tolerate. I tried some mocha shakes first thing in the morning, a strawberry/banana for "breakfast"...broth for lunch and dinner along with 2 shakes. It helps to keep busy and/or fast forward through all of the food commertials on TV! :D I have figured out cooking is not much fun when trying to stick to a liquid diet. But on a good note my honey has decided to cook for himself or eat out for a few weeks. :)
