Hello, my name is Sherie and I'm from Texas. I just got started last month for bariatric surgery. I still have to do the TNE, and see my dietician and psychiatric for an eval. I haven't got a surgery date yet. But hoping for the end of the month or beginning of February. I also have an appointment to see my cardiologist because they found something in my ultrasound. Hopefully it's nothing and I can get approved for the surgery. Getting excited. Can't wait.

Hi all! This is my first post in here. My sleeve date is Jan 18 as well. Just ending my first day of pre op diet and I can’t believe I made it. I’m terrified of the next 13 days.

Eye on the prize. You’ve got this!!

I’m scheduled for January 13th in Texas. On the 2 protein shakes and one light meal per day. 9 days until surgery. I would be so frustrated if it gets canceled. Sorry to those that were cancelled…. I keep thinking I will be rescheduled every time I watch the news.

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!

No, about doing the surgery. Im super anxious about having the surgery now.

Because of COVID?

No, its just about how my stomach is going to feel afterwards. Im worried about the pain and what if I don't eat enough and become dehydrated. I'm just super overthinking it all.

I had my surgery on 1/3. I can tell you it is not that painful and unless you don't drink any liquid otherwise you will not be dehydrated.
