Hello, my surgery date is on April 22nd and i have been waiting for this day since last summer. I live in NJ but my surgery is at Columbia Presbyterian Hospital in New York City. I am currently on a two week liquid and raw veggie diet. The days are speeding by fast. I have no idea what I am getting myself into. I have done my research and have read the forums and prayed from time to time but reading is different from actually having the surgery and experiencing post op and beyond. This is going to be a new journey for real. I pray that I stick with what I need to do to succeed. I am very thankful to the"Bariatric Pal" app. Is there any other person having the surgery on the same day and/ or at the same hospital?

I'm struggling with the diet but following the dr's order. I have lost 7lbs so far, which is rare for me. I can't believe I'm having this surgery.

Hello All! Surgery Date April 26th! I’m sooo excited and nervous lol. So, I can totally relate. (First day of pre-op diet [emoji51][emoji31])
I am excited and nervous also. I need this surgery though. I understand that it's a tool. I must stay focused.

Unfortunately I did not lose much weight prior. One day, I would lose 2 lbs and then gain 1 lb.

Since Jan I lost 19lbs but it was a real struggle! My goal during preop diet was originally to lose 10lbs but I'm hoping to lose more now! You're doing great being down 7lbs in 5 days [emoji4]

Exactly. Yesterday, I drove my husband to Sonic for ice cream. Before that, he told me that he would do the diet with me. Lol
