I am looking for others who have a surgery date scheduled on 12/12/2016. I am starting to get nervous, but this has been in the works for over 9 months! Full-sleeve ahead. I am thirty years old, live in the Pacific NW of the US, and have been over 200lbs since I was twelve. I am looking forward to this second chance.

I just had mine 11/14. I was nervous too. You'll do great. Your surgery is scheduled on my birthday so sending good vibes your way. I was down maybe 4-5 days. Im 7 days post op and feel great no pain meds etc.

Start my liquid diet on 11/28 also. Surgery is on 12/9. Thanksgiving this year is going to be last real food for a couple of months. More nervous about the unknown factor of how I will do through the early stages. Type 1 diabetic so have hope that this surgery will help in getting this under control.

@@Gypsymama, let's stay in touch. We will have the same WLS anniversary and I think that is pretty cool.

@@Mothra62 keep pushing thru. It has definitely been tough especially when everyone else is eating, but we are all strong enough to push thru to the end.

I'm the 12th as well! I have a 2 week liquid diet and I'm struggling more with my emotions than not eating. This journey is life changing in so many ways than just physical, but I am already so happy I'm able to do it!

Teeman, day 3 on liquid not too bad. I also put the smokes down the same day I started pre-op diet. I would ha e to say that I am wanting a smoke more than food.

December 19th 2016... I shall be Sleeved! Let the journey begin!!

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!
