Hey! Mines is September 10th

Are you ready for tomorrow!?!?!

Too all those now on their pre-op diets...I am on Day 17 of my pre-op diet. You read that correctly, Day 17. I have to do a 28 day liver shrinking diet. 4 protein shakes, 1 lean and green meal, and 1 serving of sugar free jell-o. No matter what your pre-op diet, it gets better! The first 3 days were tough, but now I am smooth sailing through it!
11 days to go for me! Pre-op surgeon visit this Friday and medical clearance with my primary on Monday.

28 days [emoji33]

I have today and 4 more days to go on my liquid diet. This is no fun. LOL> I'm soooooo tired of sweet stuff. The broth is my only saving grace and the Popsicles to chew on. I can and will complete this though!! You are all doing great. Less then a week to a new beginning!

Me too! Surgery is on Monday?

Hi everyone!! I’m having a conversion done from a sleeve to bypass and scheduled on 9/23. Didn’t feel real until I had my final follow-up appointment yesterday!

Hi! My surgery date is September 9th. I'm so happy to be a part of one of these threads now! I'd love to have some surgery buddies too. [emoji3]

WOOOO, happy surgery day, good luck!

I am having revision from sleeve to bypass on September 18 (due to GERD). I start the liquid diet tomorrow. It doesn’t feel real just yet.

Wow same! I had my sleeve in 2017 and due to GERD I am now scheduled for a bypass on 9/23. It really didn’t feel real at all for me until my final follow up yesterday which is when I got freaked out.

Just got my date 9/30..?

Just had my surgery! Recovering and walking and sipping water. Wonder how many other folks are in the first week of recovery?

Sept 22 anyone else ? Would love a friend ...pm me

I just got set for a 10-21 Sleeve but don’t see an October thread.

I had my sleeve in August 2018. I am so ready for the GERD to get better! It feels real now that I'm a couple of days into the liquid pre-surgery diet. Odd that my GERD hasn't been too bad on this part as it was really bad pretty much right away after the initial surgery. Happy to be a surgery buddy!

I found pickle pops to be SUPER helpful to curb my sweet cravings. I found a small pack of them at the store and just ordered big box for post-surgery.

Whoops, that should have been, to cut through the sweets overload.

Well, I am a week out and I can tell you fellow bubbly guts folks that my GERD is GONE. Like, zero!
