Any Oct 6 Sleevers out there?

I am scheduled to have my sleeve done on October 6th (started the process on March 1st, 2015.) I'd love to have a "surgery buddy" who is having the procedure the same day or very close to the date. Anyone interested?

I have been taking Mirolax in the mornings and it has helped keeping me regular. Any of you have issues with being regular with your BM. My RN said if if I'm not going every three days I should take Mirolax.

are you ever regular? Oh wait I was thinking normal!

Hahaha love it.

I'm on a business trip so I've just been accessing this site on my phone. I was able to log in on my laptop and now I am giddy! Just remembered that I put in the ticker on how many days till my surgery and it made me happy! This has been postponed so many times that I am thrilled that it is FINALLY almost here! I don't even mind that this is the 3rd time doing the liquid diet--- I am getting to be an old pro! Looking forward to all you seasoned veterans getting me through the initial stages after surgery :D

You are going to do great!

I want to see a full body of water!

Does anyone know how to update your profile. I can't seem to figure it out. I am on my phone, don't know if that makes any difference.

I was wondering the same thing. I can't update my ticker

I went to my PCP Tuesday. He did blood work . .he called today with results. He started I have steatosis and severely D3 deficient.. I called my surgeon. He said that just means I'm malnourished and I'm working out too hard. I'm burning more calories than I need to lose for my body to function. ..WTH my D3 i can take a pill for I have struggled with that for years.

Abs can't you take a higher dose of multi vitamin to compensate for the lack of food

You have done so well pre-op on your weight loss! After surgery, look out!

I looked up steatosis and that is fatty liver right? Well duh, I am thinking that we will have that fatty liver until we lose more weight and we are no longer obese?

When I change my weight on the TOGETHER WE HAVE LOST XXXXXXXX lbs ticker on the bottom right corner of this page, it automatically changes my ticker weight.

If you are on the phone app, I don't think you can. You would probably have to just go to the regular website on your phone's browser.

I don't have a fatty liver I asked my surgeon. Some people have it even when they are thin.

liver was normal before surgery. Dr said it was from malnutrition. I have got to get more protein/calories in with out burning them all during Cardio.. my weight today is 152 pounds.
