I am scheduled for 11/12 and I have tried many diets and have failed. I am going in to this very hopeful and praying i can stick to it. i would love a buddy

I was sleeved, 8/3, live in California but born and raised in the Bronx. Where do you live. I am 5'4" starting weight 253.5 day of surgery, today 224lbs. Pre op 268. Losing slower then I would like, but it is what it is. I say the surgeon did his part, I am doing mine and that's all we can do. I am very strict sticking to the plan. Trying to get my activity level increased.Ask away any questions I will be open and honest. Good luck

My surgery date is November 17. Not exactly the 12th, but close!!! I live in Texas Good luck with everything!!

@sbg224 how was the pain afterwards?

Starting my pre-op diet on Monday and wondering how I can survive liquid diet for two weeks!!

JustMe2015,

I start Tuesday and I feel the same way!! Kinda scary!! I can have 5 Protein shakes a day and broth, so hopefully that will help. I plan to go to bed really early for 2 weeks hahahaha. What can you have?

I can have Protein drinks, clear broths, 1 serving of sugar free yogurt per day ... Water / diet Snapple ... think that's about it!! .. same thing for me, no late nights .. just survival!! :-)

I'm going to be sleeved on November 12th as well in Houston, Texas. It would be awesome if we could help each other survive the post-op craziness.

I an scheduled for November 17th and could also use a Buddy.

Hi Pammy0425! Where are you located in Houston or somewhere nearby? Be great to talk in person but if not we certainly have a plethora of other options! Let me know!

I'm actually located in South Carolina.

Never been to South Carolina before but heard it is beautiful. I'm having quite the day today...truly believed it was Thursday so didn't wear jeans and then forgot to bring my laptop to work...so not good....

It will be ok. Take a deep breath and don't sweat the small stuff. That is my motto????
