May 15- I can't wait to begin my new life!
When is your May date?

woo hoo!!!! Mine is May 25th it seems like forever. Do you have any pre pre-op diet plans? I am torn between eating all of the foods I love and loosing as much weight as I can for surgery. How long is your pre op diet? Mine is 1 week and I am worried that I will not be able to eat liquids only. Any tips you have would be great.

I do- my instructions are one one week liquids- same as you probably.
I'm trying to lose some excess that has snuck on since the holidays- so I've been doing protein shakes at least one
A day- and walking more as I have seen suggested here. I've dropped 15 or so and I really needed that in order to
Feel good in my swimsuit and dress clothes for these events!

My day is may 4,2012 i can't wait...........Thank you Jesus

hi! i have a confession...my date is not may. it's july, but i joined in the hopes of hearing some people's experiences that are going first.

do you all have dr. almanza?

i had rny bypass in 2005 and i have regained 40 pounds and stretched my stomach back out. i am considering a band over my bypass or revision to a sleeve. is anyone revising? or has revised?

as far as doing the liquid diet for a week, i have done that. my advice would be to keep slap a picture onto the fridge of what you WANT to look like...helped me back then. also, try to mix it up with broth, protein shakes, watered-down natural juices, and sugar-free popsicles when you get bad urges to eat. good luck!

Hello all!
My date is May 25th and I cant wait. I guess I'll see you there Mindy! I am also torn between eating the things I know I wont be able to once I get the surgery and trying to lose before the surgery. So far eating is winning...lol. I had lap band surgery done in Mexico, so the thing Im most nervous about is the recovery....not looking forward to it at all. See you around.

Hello May sleevers, my date is the 29th. So far on pre-op lost 7 pounds, hoping to lose at least 10 by the procedure date. Little nervous due to my situation (enlarged spleen and liver cirrhosis).

How's everyone doing? <3
