After 6 long months plus two more because of scheduling conflicts, I finally have my date. Anyone want to buddy?

I am ready! Surgery on 2/15. Began pre op diet Monday. Handling it pretty well. Love the protein shakes! Have pre op appointment Friday. Counting down and ready!

Hi songsmith! I am having my sleeve done February 15th also. I am so excited but a little nervous my dr. didn't mention any pre op diet. Have you started a pre op diet yet?

Hi Shiloh 2004! We have pre op spot. the same date as well as our sleeve on the 15th. ????. Good luck to you!!

Hi jjrb72! Oh yeah! I totally am ready to get this done! Good luck to you on your upcoming sleeve!

I'm going in for surgery 2/17. Started diet today. Definitely need buddy/ies.

I'm also 2/15!

Pre-op appointment today.

I'm having my surgery on the 15th :-) would love a buddy to help get through it...I'm on day 3 of liquid diet,been told to drink I pint of milk a day and between 8_12 yogurts 60cals at 120g pot that's all!

My surgery is 2/16. Started my 2 week preop diet yesterday which consists of protein shakes, broth, SF jello and SF Popsicles. Days are ok but evenings with the family are rough!! More nervous about the preop diet then I am the surgery!!

Newbe312, we are going to be so successful at this. My pre op visit didn't amount to much. A bunch of medical history, an EKG, blood work, and x-rays. I have to be at the hospital at 7:30 AM on the 15th, and my surgery is scheduled for 9:30. My surgeon wants me up and walking as much as possible on the day of surgery. I supposedly get out the next day in the afternoon. What about you? How are you doing on your pre op diet? My biggest problem is finding the energy to exercise, but I try to do it every day. Best of luck to you! Thoughts and prayers are with you!

Hi Shiloh 2004! My preop visit was spent going over what to do for preop diet and getting ready day of surgery. I won't find out until Friday what time the surgery is scheduled for. I have to call between 2-4. Just started preop diet today. I only have to do 5 days...Missing my morning bagel but I know I can do this!!! And we are going to be successful! How is your preop diet going? Best of luck on surgery day!! I am sending hugs and prayers for a speedy recovery!! ????

Yes, I began my pre-op diet on Feb. 1. It certainly hasn't been easy, but I will make it. 4 days and counting until surgery. That's when my new, healthier, happier life will begin! Can't wait!

5 days and counting for me!!
