Yay Xombae! Sleeve buddies! How have you been coping with wedding and the pre op diet?

My preop diet is pretty lax (egg whites, turkey deli meat, chicken, white fish, Protein shakes) but being at work in the lunchroom with everyone is a little tough. I'm noticing everyone is eating everything I can't have. And as far as the wedding goes, it's just a small courthouse wedding with a few family members so stress is low.

No, but my plan states specifically no fruits or vegetables. I'll post it on here when I get home.

Okay, it's different in the UK. All i had yesterday was a cup of hot chicken stock for Breakfast as I didn't have any milk for shakes and 2 bottles of Water. Then had steam stirfry veg and 2 cod fillets when 8 got home from the hospital. How did your pre op go. Did they swab you for MRSA?

Nope, all I have left to do is a blood test the day before surgery.

It looks like mine will be the first or second week in November and I was thinking I could start a Facebook group just for us November sleevers.

I tried joining the group since my sleeve is November 23, but it says no more members are being accepted. If it is okay, I would still like to join.

My surgery is November 4th, and 4 days after my wedding. My status with my insurance company is still pending, but the center I'm going to for my surgery said not to worry since they're out of network. (but I'm paying in network prices)

I'm the 4th as well!!,

AnaDana I started preop diet today and I came to bed early to try to fight the hunger. Not sure if I'm really hungry or if it's all in my head. I know I have to succeed though. Here is what I have to do for mine. attachicon.gifImageUploadedByBariatricPal1477445355.305700.jpg

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞

        I may have to have gall bladder surgery during my weight loss surgery. Not thrilled about it either but do not want 2 recovery times. Just want it over with.

        Thanks for your post. I may need to rethink my decision... :(
