Anyone else having surgery in April? Maybe we can find surgery twins here. I thought I could start it off by asking a few questions.

When is your surgery? April 4th
What kind of surgery? Revision from sleeve to Mini Gastric Bypass
Height? 5’8”
Starting weight? 285
Goal weight? 175

It is completely normal to be nervous. This is, after all, life changing! But I know we are all prepared for that or we wouldn't be here, right? ❤️

Me as mine is April 3. Last Wednesday got a call they had unexpected opening so had to start pre OP diet at that moment.

I don't know how much I will lose after surgery but I have lost 38lbs. so far I am just worried about the liquid diet 2 weeks before surgery

@Romanoloser we have the same date of 4/9, can you tell me what day you start your liquid diet please.. Or anyone else on the same day. Just curious if the didn't put the correct date:) Thank you all

I am on the same date, but sorry I can’t help. My surgeon doesn’t require it.  Just the day before surgery. Can you believe we are only 2 weeks out?  I’m starting to get more and more nervous.

Good luck, I am crossing fingers for April but I am waiting for insurance approval?

Me too although they already put me on the 2 week pre OP diet which sucks btw.

My surgery is 4/8 and I begin my liquid diet tomorrow, 3/25.

OK, so if you are the 8th and start tomorrow I think someone couldn't add and gave me an extra day ha ha. I thought my liquids start on the 26th which is 2 weeks exactly:) I didn't want to start on my long Monday at work.

My 10 day liver shrinking pre op diet starts tomorrow. It’s hard to believe I will having my revision surgery in 9 days. I am so ready to get it done and start living my new life. I have my shakes, crystal light mixes, sugar free jello and broths ready for the work day tomorrow!

I usually do well throughout the day until 3pm ish when I start feeling that head hunger. I’m telling myself to keep busy at work because when I am busy I don’t even think about eating!

Wish me luck!

Best of luck to you!!

I officially start tomorrow, I kind of started on Wednesday but only half ass. 14 days tomorrow Alwzla8.

Good luck, you can do it. !!

I did an unofficial pre op start Monday of last week but since I didn’t officially start until tomorrow I didn’t go too hard on myself. Especially this weekend when we celebrated my twins first birthday! I feel ready for this diet. I know it’s going to be hard but I can do this!

I just realized I was still looking at my original date of the 8th so really we have to start on Tuesday and 15 days lol?

Just got my date April 24th!!
