I of course have many questions and would like for February Sleevers to join together for this adventure and life changing decisions we have made to better our health and lives. I think it would be awesome to find other February Sleevers to share our experiences good and bad.

So how are you feeling? I can't decide if I'll be more worried about the food changes or excitement that the procedure is so close!

I wonder why your page says NO slim fast or ensure? Hmmm? So I had to buy food from my Dr's office and a majority of it is disgusting. I've been kinda cheating and drinking an Ensure for Breakfast or lunch the last few days because I just can't tolerate that gross food 3 meals a day. I have researched other diets online and none are as restrictive as the ones they're giving us

How much sugar in Ensure? I drink premier protien. 1 gram sugar and 30 grams protien.

Went to Sam's and picked up some Premier Protein! I've got like 3 different types of protein powders that I'll be trying out to see what I like best. My doc has me starting my 2 week pre-op on Feb 2. 4 protein shakes + 1 lean meat and 2 cups green veg at dinner.

Driving myself to FL on the 16th for pre-op and surgery is Feb 17th!

I'll be you tubing for encouragement to other "older" women! I'm 50 with two pre-teen boys! I'll post when I get one loaded

Hey haven't you heard fifties are the new thirties? Lol I'm turning 50 in March.

Im excited as my date is quickly approaching. I'm also physically tired. I expected the tiredness because it's the first day of the preop diet.

I'm on day 3 of 2-week pre-op diet. Not bad at all... 4 Protein shakes and two Lean Cuisine or Healthy Choice meals (certain ones). 2/13 VSG - starting to get a little nervous!!!

Woo hoo I had my sleeve today and doing great [emoji2][emoji2][emoji2] been up walking the nurses station non stop. There was excruciating gas pain for the first few hours after surgery but now it's like a dull pain in my chest, neck and shoulder, been burping too which they said helps with the pain(seems too) no actual gas from the other end!!!!

Just got my surgery date today! February 20th! It's crazy how some of my friends are happy for me that I got my date. While others who I thought I had their support won't say anything. At least my family is supportive!

I'm also scheduled for February 20th.
