So I'm booked in for my gastric sleeve on the 14th March. Nervous excitement.

Meeting dietician next week for get the pre op diet. She reckons for me it'll be 2 weeks.

I've already started cutting out things on a weekly basis. So hopefully by the time I get to the beginning of March the pre op diet won't be such a shock.

Anyone else booked for March? Would be great to have a sleeve buddy.

FINALLY approved! I got a big packet from my surgeons office with post op diet info, but pre-op just says "only clear liquids the day before surgery". Does that mean I don't have a pre-op diet?? I'm not complaining, just confused lol.

Side note: February sleevers had a Facebook group. Would anyone be interested in a private group like that?

I'm also Australia in Tasmania! 24 march

Hi I'm booked for March 21st not sure if my post has been seen as it's my first time..I'm having mine done in Luton n dunstable has anyone else had their surgery done there x

Not in Luton but getting mine down privately in East london / Essex area. I'm having mine exactly 1 week before too.

Have you had a pre op diet from your surgeon.
Got mine on Friday. It's pretty tame. Had the option to do liquids or low carb food. And only for 10-14 days before the operation.

Decided I'm going to try and learn a bit more about nutrition over this period, so that when I do eat again I'm only taking in food that's beneficial to my body. Really want to use this operation as a reset in my way of thinking about food.

Sorry for ramble

Private or even secret Facebook group would be awesome.

Hi evie I'm getting excited yet nervous ..I previously had wls 33 years ago I had 20yrs of being my goal weight. Since then was severely malnourished and my weight continued to rise. And lots of problems I'm having a reversal of original surgery and a sleeve to replace. They no longer do the type of surgery I originally had. I havnt rcvd my previous op diet yet they said it would be a 10 day one too. And choice of low carb or liquid diet..doesn't sound to bad aye hun like you it's a good way of rethinking what your eating x

I would be interested in a private FB group
