Just got my date 12/3. A little sad to be on a preop diet for Thanksgiving but we gotta do what we gotta do.

I like the Premier protein shakes. Peach is my fav!

I find out my liquid diet details on 11/17. Im anxious so I can get started early. Surgery 12/8 at noon.

My surgery date is 12/2/20 (if COVID doesn't shut it down). I started my 2 week liquid diet today as I know it'll take a day or two to get used to no solids. I bought a top rated protein shake jug, so I am hoping all goes well. Chicken broth will help, but I'm a late night snacker watching TV...it's going to test my will power for sure.

Wrong forum, sorry!

December is getting close!

I still don’t have my official date yet. :/ They just keep saying it will be before the end of the year. Well said, I haven’t heard from them in a week. Part of me wants to email/call but I feel like I’m being a pest! I may contact the girl I originally started talking to, she seemed to have the inside scoop. ??

In a way I want to get there, in another way I’m kind of dreading it. Because of the recovery period... and I am 65.... but other than the obesity I’m in fair health.

I am having my lap-band removed and laparoscopic gastric bypass surgery on 8 December. I started my presurgery diet this past Sunday. I am excited and nervous at the same time. I will be in the hospital for 4 days. I have to report to the hospital the night before.

Hi everyone! My GS surgery is on Dec 1st! So excited!!!!

Im starting to worry about COVID. I live in California and the numbers are starting to go up again. To be expected after Halloween and with flu season but I would be really sad if they cancelled. Especially after the liquid diet thing. No joke it is hard.

I am also worried about my surgery being cancelled. So much can change in three weeks.

MN Governor said he isn't shutting down elective surgeries, I hope that even of he did, it wouldn't be for a week or 2 with my surgery 2 weeks from today. Fingers crossed.

I just got my call!!!!! Surgery is scheduled for December 9. I'm so excited!

Hi new here and sleeve surgery date is 12/3. Almost a year to get everything done and approved. Day 4 of my pre op diet which is mostly liquid. I’m allowed an Atkins style meal for dinner. It’s been interesting so far. But looking forward to the bigger picture and new start.

CW 254 (thanks in part to the pre op diet lol)

Same day here but yes we got this!

Hey 12/3! A year! That is a long time to prepare but I know it will pay off in results.
you don’t have too much longer so keep us posted. We will be here to help you and help each other get through this stuff. It won’t be easy but it’ll be worth it! Let us know how the pre-op diet is going; is it pretty hard?
