Anyone scheduled for surgery in January 2018? I'm booked in for the 12th. Would be nice to chat to people in the same stage x

I do not have a pre op diet so I feel horrible for so many that do that one!

Sleeve tomorrow? I am so ready. I have lost 100 lbs 3 times only to regain. This will be the permanent tool I needed.

Wish me luck.

And to everyone waiting, please hang in there. It is going to be worth it.

Ok then , we are in it together. My surgery is 3 weeks on the 23rd. I have one more week of real food - won't over do it because I meet with the surgeon on the 9th and I'm sure he will weigh me lol.

My preop diet is the liquid protein shakes for breakfast and lunch and then a sensible dinner.

I was weighing in at 229 a few months ago but have been taking Vyvanse for binge eating disorder which is a stimulant (therapy as well) and also taking Saxenda which is a weight loss medication. Victoza is for diabetes and Saxenda is a double dose of Victoza marketed as a weight loss product. I am down to 206 now. I am doing the gastric bypass for a chance at health. I have been overweight since I was 5! I don't know what it is like to eat normally or even be thin.

I am 54 and have diabetes type II, kidney disease, fatty liver disease, gerd, asthma, neuropathy in my feet, glaucoma suspect, cataracts, depression, anxiety and more. I take so many medicines it is ridiculous and borders on embarassing lol.

I am praying that that this surgery and my good behavior will help me to be healthy for the first time in my life.

I will remember you all in my prayers. Let us know how your surgery went and how your are feeling.

I wish you well Healthy Angel!

The doctor only requires one for some patients and I guess I lucked out!

Same here. I live in Switzerland. I'm getting the sleeve on 1/16 and there's no pre-op diet. Just the day before, apparently. I'll talk with my surgeon next Monday when they open again after the holidays to check.

Good luck! I've done the same as you... Losing 90lb several times and regaining. Looking forward to this permanent solution though as everybody days, it's not the easy way out. Let us know how it goes with you!

I’m scheduled January 16th, can’t wait!

I don't have one either. But ive been practicing lol
