Anyone Dec 17th sleevers want to connect? Our date is rapidly approaching!

Surgery planned 12/17 for VSG. I’m somewhat new to this forum and enjoy reading posts but see that many of the threads are pretty self limiting-

I’m looking for a few people with dates in the same week as me to really connect, support and keep each other motivated over the long run.

Suggestion? I’m willing to create a group text chat or any other type of chain email communication for us to stay connected as we begin the journey!

  • Hi I’m getting the sleeve on December 17th. It is revision surgery - band out and then sleeved. I’d be nterested in a chat group!! I’m new to this forum so I’m not familiar with this platform.

My surgery is on the 17th as well. On day 8 of the liquid diet... which I can't stand!!!!!! This has to be the worst part of the process since the hunger is suppose go away after the surgery.

Oh wow, I have a week pre-op diet but can have solids- just needs to be low sugar, low carb, high protein - it’s actually so much food I feel stuffed!

Best of luck to you!!!

At this point I’m looking to connect those who are having the sleeve within the month of December so we all are on the same page ?
