February 18th surgery!

[amandastearns 79]

I got my date this week and it's coming so fast! I have so many emotions going on, I don't really know how to react. My surgery obviously has been submitted to my insurance (Cigna) and I'm terrified I'll be getting bad news. I lucked out and I don't need to do a pre-op diet but I was instructed to continue trying to lose weight. Is there any other sleevers close to my surgery date?

Congratulations! I know exactly how you feel!! My date is 19th!! I had been researching this and wanting it for 5 years! Now that I have my date, I'm panicking!! I'm not afraid of the surgery, as I had a previous lap band. I know what I'm getting into. I'm worried about failing! It's a confidence thing, ya know? But each time I watch a youtube video, or read a story, I think, YES!!! I can DO this!! Crazy, right? I'm on a liver reducing diet. Day 3. pretty slim pickings. It's really good to do a liver reducing diet, as they have to push your liver out of the way to do the surgery. Just stick to your reducing diet. Cut out as much fat and sugar as possible and limit your carbs. I get to have 3 fruits a day, unlimited salad and veg. Only 2 oz Protein at lunch and dinner. You'll do great! If you're on Facebook, let me know, I have started a private page! keep in touch!! Tracy
