So today is my first day of pre-op. Being in the UK it's bedtime soon so I've had my day and all has gone well!

I'm not really an eater so the lack of intake is ok with me. Water, Protein shake, water, water and 3oz of roast beef with a good salad. I'm sure it will get 'tense' as I head towards the op on September 13th (thankfully not a Friday!)

I had a great party this weekend where I drank for to much as I said goodbye to Alcohol.... For now.

So I'm starting my journey at 358lbs. Apprehensive, nervous not knowing what you don't know BUT double exited.

A lot of you guys have inspired me to get this done and if I get anywhere near your successes. I will be delighted.

Awesome Ollie!!! I look forward to seeing your success!!!

Holy crow!!! You get roast beef and salad on post-op Day One???

You must think us Americans are nuts putting up with these liquid diets for 2 weeks post-op!

The food went down well? And stayed there? Which surgery did you have?

My husband was 66, and was sleeved. He was at 230, and now 3 years later and so easy, is at at 213, 6'2". He has given up his lifelong habit of saving fat clothes of every size, and has become a clothes horse with more clothes than I could wear. He is active, boating, kayaking, and happy with the way he looks for the first time in his life. best wishes!
