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!

March 3 for me, no pre-op diet, just have to start clear fluids the day before, come on Wednesday

We’re surgery twins!

March 18th

I was scheduled for March 4th but was rescheduled for attending my mom funeral on February 23rd. Covid. Probably better to give me more time to get the grieving under control.

My condolence. Praying for you and your family.

March 25th here!!

12:30 tomorrow is fast approaching. I will update when able. Good luck to all March peeps. Here we go!

Good luck to you, I am on Wednesday and must admit I am a little nervous, how about you?

Not to bad. I keep reading success stories and reminding myself this is a long marathon and not a sprint! We’ve got this! Best of luck on Wednesday.

Not really nervous, I've had two previous C-sections, but waited to long to have this done. This was my last resort and just feel like I failed to get to this point, but I have battled this for 20 years, managed to drop 40 pounds on my own, but had to start taking medication to control my blood pressure and that was the turning point for me. Just ready to get started. Good luck to you, will check up on later this week.

I picked up regular and bone broth from Trader Joes and some sugar free jello cups from walmart (generic). I also bought some bottled clear protein (like a gatorade but with protein) on Amazon. I am going in in a little over an hour ? Good vibes and prayers to everyone on your procedures! xo

I’ve stocked up on:

McCormick Bouillon cubes

Outcast foods Unflavoured protein and other flavoured kinds

Vega Brand protein

Simply Delish Jel Desserts and Pudding mixes

I’m vegan so if anyone is looking for plant based options there is a few ?
