Hi - I am new to the site. My sleeve surgery is scheduled for March 10th. Anyone else here set for March? I am super anxious but also looking forward to it. I had a lap band in 2009 and a slip in 2014 that required removal. Curious as to what your pre-op diet looks like. I am on partial liquids now and full liquids for two weeks before the surgery.

Nice to meet everyone!

This is uncanny! And your stall atart d in the se week as well. Maybe it is normal after all.

My surgeons office said it was very normal. It can be as early as 2 weeks or as later but apparently 3rd week is super common.

The stall is HARD! I've been on these forums for months before I had my surgery so I feel really prepared. I knew stalls would happen, but now that it's here, it's hard not to mentally beat myself up or question what I've been doing. I'm so grateful for these forums!

I had gastric sleeve surgery March 2021. I had food stuck at the stomach opening and ended up at the er and then an endoscopy was done at midnight. Don’t want to do that ever again.

OMG - May I ask was it something you ate that you shouldn't have? or was it the opening of your stomach was small? That must have been so scary - I am sorry you went through that.

I am down 57! I know we're not supposed to compare ourselves, but it was reassuring to know someone else is just in step with me! Congratulations on your loss!

How is everyone doing? Sadly, my hunger has come back much quicker than expected as have my cravings for carbs and I am HUNGRY! I simply make sure I have protein close by or veggies or fruit. It is difficult some days. I had my yearly physical yesterday and my primary care said she was concerned I was loosing to much weight too fast. Just curious what everyone else is experiencing. I do find I am following exactly what my dr and dietician recommended.

Had my surgery on 3/31 and as of today I am down 68.2lbs. I have struggled with finding food terribly appealing and get full fast. I have carbs now and again but find I get full even faster that way and I know they are empty calories so I keep it limited
