Being Sleeved In 3 Days!

Good morning everyone! I am 3 days from being sleeved and getting really excited! I am ready to get this journey going into full swing. I have been on my pre-op since 7/2/12 and going good for the most part. I am finding it hard to get all six of my protein shakes in - usually about 9 or 10 before I get the final one in! Also having trouble getting my water in. Some days I do fairly well, and others are horrible. I just get busy with the kiddos and taking care of the house that I just don't do it. I have lost 13lbs since July 1st so that makes me happy, but can't help but wonder if it would be more if I was getting that last shake in earlier or if I was getting all of my water in? Any thoughts on this?   Looking for good tips/advice/and take-alongs before I go to the hospital on Monday. What made your hospital journey easier for you? What would you have taken/not taken? I look forward to reading your suggestions and tips.     Good bye for now.

3 Days Post Op

Well, I am 3 days post-op and feeling pretty good. The first couple of days were really rough but they are getting much better. It looks as though I will get to go home today! That makes me very happy Gas pains haven't been too terribly awful - just here and there. I am struggling getting the green kool-aide down but I am trying hard. I so bad want to know if I have lost anything yet - but don't want to get caught up in the #'s. Hope everyone else is doing well on their journey!

2 Days Post-Op

Hi everyone! I am 2nd day post-op. Yeah, I have been sleeved! Yesterday and the first half of today were extremely rough. But things have started to even out this afternoon and am finally getting a little bit of clear liquid down. I hope to get to go home tomorrow but they haven't had me up walking yet so may be another day or so. I am very thankful to have this opportunity to change my life and become the mother I want to be and that my children deserve. I love reading about everyones journeys so keep the info and advice coming.
