That depends a lot on each person, overweight...I think it's better not to get obessed with the weight loss and focus on following your surgery plan. I f you do that I'm sure that you'll succeed 👍

With my surgery coming up on the 18th, I'm thinking about logistics. I live 2 hours from the surgery spot. Anyone know how long you need to wait until you drive that far?

Hi everyone
I am having my surgery on the 13th January. Already started the “Optifast” liquid diet, good way to get used to the reduced meals

Excited for you! Can't wait to hear how it goes

On Jan 3rd I had my sleeve and so happy that everything was good. Less pain than I thought but take into account that every person is different. Now, already at home, starting my first week diet post op.

Good luck everyone!

After you early Jan patients get your stomachs transformed (congratulations!!!!) And are feeling strong enough, I'd love to hear your recommendations for what I should have on hand for my first week at home.

Hello! Thought I would start out this group as I have a surgery date for Jan 4, 2022!! I'm so excited and a bit anxious for the pre-op diet - I will be starting it while on vacation - but what a great way to say Hello to the New Year!!

How are you doing? Pls update us. I had mine on Nov 1. Still cant make my protein/water goals and still hurts to eat. Still on puree and some soft foods. But im loving it! Congrats!

Hello! Unfortunately, my surgery has been cancelled until further notice (due to COVID). I have been reading and following the Pound of Cure book/eating plan; however, and I feel really great as a result of that. So I'm doing my part to lose what I can while I wait.

I wish I was on your level right now - but I'll get there, soon enough!

      It has hit me today, as I sit in my chair at work that I don't have my belly sticking out to where it would hit the desk. Oh and I can cross my legs more comfortably. It amazes me just how much I have loss in inches vs actual pounds, I have lost 24 lbs all together. But I believe in inches all over about 3 inches. I am noticing more energy and have pep to my step. My skin is a lot clearer. My watch band is shorter by 3 notches. the little things are what I am noticing. When I bend over I don't feel out of breath or I am going to fall over ( weeble wobble). 
      I am having a hard time with my sweet tooth, it is very hard to not want to get some ice cream or chocolate. Candy I can do without. I have no craving really for that, just chocolate and ice cream. I have gone as far as taking Popsicle and putting them in my mixer with almond milk and making like ice cream with that/ sometimes I have added un-flavored protein powder. 
      I feel better everyday. The energy is great to have with having younger kids and being able to have the energy to keep up. 😃

      If anyone has any advice on how to make your stomach feel better after you eat something you shouldn't have or at too fast, I would GREATLY appreciate it!! It's painful on both sides of my abdomen (like to the point I'm doubled over and using a hot water bottle in addition to medicine) and I'm really nauseous (the thought or smell of food is 🤢).
