My surgery is scheduled for 7.14.21! I'm so excited and nervous. Especially because Day 1 of my liquid diet starts tomorrow (JULY 4TH) where I will be surrounded by hot dogs, burgers, and alcohol. lol

I have my VSG booked for 27th July -- impatiently counting down the days 📆🤩 Meanwhile I am doing all the research I can on how to best prepare myself mentally for this huge change.

What is everyone else up to in these exciting weeks before? @MoreThanWords @Steveo2ray @CzarinaQ @motherofboys @LizzLosingIt @Sammys_VSG_Evolution @laurenantics @Karriekuddles

Mine is also July 27th. I am going to Endobariatrics in Mexico. I have been on a "food parade", taking in all of my favorites before I can't have then anymore. I think I in doing all of this, I am making the pre-op harder on myself, but I do realize this is not an option after July 12. When does your pre-op start and where are you having your surgery?

I am worried about the liquid diet too! I've been reading that the first 3 days are the worst, and after that it gets easier? I"m sorry you have to start on a day being surrounded by food, but I suppose post surgery, this will be our path?

I’m on the food parade too!! My surgery is July 20th and my liquid diet starts the 6th. So I’m having my favorite foods and bc I will be on a soft or puréed diet for my 40th bday we are celebrating with a cake this weekend. However going shopping for my liquids is going to be a reality check I’m sure!!!

I started shopping for my pre and 1st week post-op as well. I may be eating all the food now, but I figured the more pro-active I am in preparing for the things I need starting 7/12 the better I will be. I realize that planning has GOT to become part of my process with food. It's the not planning that leads me to eat the wrong food, and that's how I got to this point. Good luck with your surgery, keep us posted on how you do!

I waited until last minute. But I’ve been trying to mentally prepare by looking at stuff and making a list of things I could have. Good luck to you as well!! I will you as well!!

Yeah it's going to be super hard especially because it's being held at my cousin's house who has a pool and everyone knows the pool makes you hungryyyy 😞 !! You're right, this is our path. My motivation is the nerves and fear that I have to wear a bathing suit tomorrow vs how I great I will feel and look next year.

Mine is July 15 and I am getting anxious as well. I am just remembering why I am doing this and trying to focus on the positives, but sometimes I have moments of panic. Are you doing anything special to remain focused and calm?

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?
