I've got my Date Oct. 19, Anyone close to that?

Just wondering if there is anyone in the area(Michigan) who had a date close to mine or anyone in general for that matter that we could help each other out along the way :-) Its getting to the last few weeks and my nerves are starting to get to me.

Yay, I finally found a Protein drink that works for me which I'm stoked about because its been a long 6 mos trying all the different brands and flavors.

Is it strange that I made sure to up my life insurance policy just in case something bad happens, for some reason I am only thinking of the bad and not the good that can come out of this! Suggestions?

Thanks!

Hi! I'm in Michigan and will be getting sleeved Oct 21st!

I just scheduled for the 19th. Prep diet starts in 4 days ???? excited and scared.

Hello. I am having surgery on Oct 19th!!! I do not have to do a preop diet. Just maintain my weight where they wanted me to be and I am. And the night before surgery I cant eat anything after 6pm.

Nervous-excited- ready for this new adventure. I need to go buy some loose shorts and teeshirt for the stay and some slippers. I have bought some broth for the first stage then some puddings and cream Soups for the second stage. I want to be ready. Hoping I dont have to take 4 weeks off. but we will see. I want to be safe and heal. Good luck to all. Hope we can connect with our journey on here. hugss

My liquid diet starts tomorrow. Surgery October 15th

I'm scheduled for Oct. 22nd. I have to do a two week liquid diet. Just finished all my pre-op tests today.

For the people who are doing a 2 week diet what are you about to consume? Also I saw someone else who had an October Facebook group, if I created one would anyone like to join also? We could ask questions and such and help with support, recipes, workouts, etc. please let me know.

I'm scheduled for 10/26 down here in Texas. I'm definitely feeling a mixture of things...but I'm mostly excited to start this next chapter in my life!! I spent my childhood, teens, 20's and half my 30's being overweight-super morbidly obese. This ends later this month! I'm finally taking control! I want to set a better example for my daughter!!

I got my surgery date today. My surgery is the 26 also! I'm in SC. I'm happy n nervous all at the same time! Start the pre-op diet on the 12th. 2 shakes n one meal a day!! ????????????

Hi, I'm having the sleeve 10/14. I just created a Facebook group for October sleevers support. It's secret so nobody can search it or see the posts. If you'd like to be added, message me your email.

I am having my sleeve done on the 22nd, and I am also from Michigan......good luck on your journey!!!
