  1. Hi, Congrats on your surgery! I was sleeved June 27. I felt like I was hit by a bus ....lol but everyday gets better. I'm 9 days out and I feel great. My stomach muscles ache but its tolerable. I was soooo gassy .....it was horrible! It will pass. I couldn't drink ice cold drinks for about a week. They had to be room temperature, it really seemed to help. Good luck to you!

  9. Hi Carolinagirl! They dropped the 6 month wait, I've researched the surgery for about 2 yrs. But my first appt with my dr was May 2. Things have moved very fast! Liquid diet isn't so bad. Good luck to you.
  10. Hi. I am new to the site. I also have Horizon BCBS. I am being told that there is not a 6 month diet requirement anymore. I am curious, how long did you do a supervised diet? was it supervised by your primary doctor?

  11. Hi Dee, my liquid diet was supposed to be 3 weeks! But, my dr. called me last Friday said start your diet! I'm so damn excited, I can hardly stand it....lol I feel like I'm starting a brand new life. Definitely keep in touch!
  12. Hi Becca! Awesome....we are having surgery the same day! I'm having 3 protein shakes a day, sugar free jello and popsicles. I haven't had any cravings, thank goodness! Good luck!
  13. I got the official phone call Monday, I've been on my liquid diet since Saturday. It really hasn't been that bad! I'm so excited, I can hardly stand it. Reading all the forums on here have really given me lots of encouragement.
