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.

I have a pre op diet for a week but it's just protein shakes and low carb dinner. My liquid diet is only for a day before surgery.

May 8

I will have my surgery on may 8 but the nutritionists told me only 1 week liquid diet. I am reading most people have 2.

I'm also May 11th!

May 8th for me

Me too?

I'm also May 11th!

How long is your pre op diet? Mine is only a week and that too high protein and low carbs.

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

I also was only advised to do a liquid diet the day before, but i decided to do it for 3 days instead. My surgery is tomorrow!!

Mine is just the liquid diet the day before surgery.. clear liquids only

We all have that. But about the 2 week pre-op liquid diet, my surgeon said it's optional and just to be ready psychologically. I don't have to do that, but have plan to start with stay on protein shake half day long for first week and all day long for second week.

Thank you! [emoji4]

Hi my op is booked for may 8th. Feeling very lonely as I have just moved to my husbands town and don't really know anyone. This journey is very scary when you can't sit down with a girlfriend and talk about it as much as I love my husband he is a great support but sometimes you just need another girl. Anyway wishing everyone luck I really can't wait to start living my life again. X

My first day of the 2 week pre op diet started yesterday. It was fine until the evening time. My stomach was growling. Chugged some water after having broth to try to fill it up. I sure hope this gets better.

May 3rd, start my liquid diet on April 19.
