I didn't see an OCT thread, so let's make one! I just got my date today and it's 10/9! Any other October dates yet?

My surgery got moved to 10/23, a day earlier than originally scheduled. My pre-op education class is on the 10th and will start liquids on the 16th. Holy moly!! It's getting real!

Best of luck to all of us moving to the post op side this month!!

Me, too!

Yes--October 19!!!

My surgery is scheduled for October 20th!! I started my liquid diet on Friday.

Not October but is 5 days ago close enough???

I had my sleeve surgery 9/26/17. So I am on my post op liquids. Aside from the first night......surgery is going fine. And I feel better each day. No appetite, a little hard getting my protein and liquids down. But it's getting better.

Same here for me!!! I am a bit anxious but very ready to do this. Did you do a liver shrinking diet? I had to for two weeks. [emoji55]

So I am finishing up day 5 of clear liquids only... I wanna eat food so bad [emoji31] My diet only allows protein drinks, broth, sf drinks, sf popsicles, and sf jello. What I've found is that it's ALL in the mind for me... my stomach isn't hungry (really!) but mentally, I'm craving everything under the sun. 9 days to go! Omg

I feel ya. I’m on day 5 too. Same diet as well. I’m want to eat so bad but I’m not really hungry. I think it’s just a mental thing of chewing. Seeing others eat doesn’t help...

I did a 5 day pre-op, it was the hardest part of my journey. I don't want eat much now because of the pain of being only 5days post op, if I drink too fast or too much it hurts!

I just got insurance approval on Friday. Going to schedule my date for sometime in October tomorrow!

October 17th!!!

I am the 17th of October also
