May Sleevers?

  • Popular Post

So finally got my date and it is May 11th. Are there any other May sleevers out there who want to join me in this journey?

I also invite the veterans to join and guide us May sleevers through the process.

    Well, I'm having the sleeve done on May 1! I was originally scheduled in November 2016 but had to cancel last minute due to complications from diabetes. Hey, so I'm in a Facebook group for November 20

I have to only do a pre op diet for a week and that is also protein shakes for breakfast and lunch and low carb dinner. I do a liquid diet for a day before my surgery.


omg, there are so many May threads! Mine is May 2nd. So nervous, and yet so happy and excited. No pre-op diet for me, but that's not a brag. I'm actually considering doing one because I worry my liver will be large and make surgery more difficult. It's just so hard to convince myself when it's not required, plus I was given on information so I am not so sure what to do. Honestly, the one above doesn't sound so bad. I already have a shake for lunch, and a usually my dinner is low carb.

I just got Approved and my surgery date is May 2nd. YAYYYY! I go Thursday for a 2 hour nutrition class then next Wednesday for my pre-op testing at the hospital. Can anyone tell me what this testing consists of? I start my 2 week pre-op liquid diet this Sunday.

I would love to hear how it goes. Mine is three days later on the 5th

It's odd the only pre op diet I have is for the one day prior to surgery. Does anyone else have this?

I have none, so maybe not that weird? Mine is nothing after midnight...I guess every doctor/program just has their own preferences.
