Got my Surgery date today! Its going to be on April 2nd, 2018 day after Easter... can't wait!!! I wanted it this month but this gives me an extra week to plan!

Doc says he is doing a triple on me...Duodenal Switch, fixing hiatal hernia and taking my gall bladder out too! Lord!!!!

So I will be on 2 week liver reduction diet, 1 week shakes snacks and lean and green and then the dreaded liquid week 5 shakes a day! ughhhh! lol cant wait for that lolol NOT!!! Since I know I don't have to start this until 2 weeks before my date , but I feel like I should start early on the lean and green that way i can lose a little more weight before my date.

While I was at the doctor's office I picked up all my shakes stuff and snacks and b complex and that isopure stuff. Anyway wanted to share with everyone. I am beyond Excited!

Any April surgery buddies out there?

My surgery is April 9th!!! So excited! How r u doing on the liquid diet?

Surgery scheduled for 4-17!! (Pending insurance approval.) Don't have to do a pre-op liquid diet. Have lost 64 pounds since I started this journey last October. Nervous yet excited at the same time. Here's to all of us April sleevers and bypassers!!

Mine is April 3rd, I started my 2 week liquid diet today and I have a horrible headache and I'm sad. I haven't ate anything I wanted to but I tried to manipulate my husband to co-sign my bs. I've been told after the 3rd day it gets better. I keep reminding myself if I slip, I'll resent myself so much.

Nemo you do not have to have funerals for all foods. Think of it as a lovely vacation they are taking, they will be back. Just like people they may return to you more thin tan and relaxed. And you'll have a more adult relationship, no more frantic chomping, you may even be able to hold a conversation with dinner,partners and such. You may even find out the taste of things instead of bolting so fast you almost choke on mouthful. Such a strange new world you will be living in, but,you know I want a condo myself there!

Well said. Thank you.

April 14th for me!!!! Glad to have buddies [emoji4] I am going to need some serious help/encouragement during the 2 week liquid pre-op diet.

Man I'm on day 2 of my 2 week pre op diet. I was so grumpy last night and wanted to eat my sons burnt pizza my husband fixed for him. I almost cried when my husband held me accountable. Today isn't as bad. I'm realizing what satisfies me more. It's more mental hunger than physical. I've started logging my "foods" on my bariastic app to get used to it.
