Hi Angel11!!

I am having my surgery on the 19th. I have been doing the liver shrink diet for the past three weeks. I am super excited about finally having the surgery. I started the process back in January of this year. It doesn't even seem that long ago. I hope all goes well for you!!!

Im getting sleeved on Monday, Sept. 18th. Two more days of this 2 week liquid diet. Every day on it seems to get harder & harder. Now I just want to get it over with. Hope I do as good as my other Sleeve buddies! Good Luck All!

I'm not sure what staples she had out, but the ones in our new stomach stay in. I don't think I have any staples that will come out--my teeny tiny incisions have mostly healed.

I am scheduled for sleeve surgery sept 15th and excited to see so many of us on here! I'm day three of liquids and plugging along. Keeping my eye on the long term!




We are surgery day twins! I lost about 12lbs on preop diet- put a big smile on face. Surgeon and anastheliogists even commented on my upbeat attitude! Dry mouth during overnight in hospital was awful. I have this coming week off work, trying to stay hyrdated and getting some walking in. How are you doing? How are you sleeping?

Well I have 7 more days to go. On the liquid with veggies. I'm having some serious weakness. Did anyone else deal with this. I don't even know what I'd feel like if I wasn't taking vits, Iron and B12!!! Not having hunger pains, but dang getting out of bed is hard in the morning.

All the best for your surgery tomorrow! My only advice is to be excited and positive. Honestly pain was minimal for me and recovery so quick!

Hi! I have been on a liquid only diet. I have felt the very same way! Protein Shakes, popsicles & broth, only go so far. My surgery is tomorrow :) Hang in there! This is very hard to do, but, hopefully it will pay off for both of us :)

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
