After my surgery I started periodically having these horrible pains that would last 15 min to longest 7 hous moaning pain afer I ate certain things. I thought it was from surgery and that it was from not being careful about what I ate so I didnt go to the DR. ( I also had a big ded uctable.and it was right before end of year at its worst}. It was a very sick Gall bladder and it could have killed me when I finaly went to DR My liver and pancrease count during the attack was almost 10.500 normal is under 300. I had emergency surgery on thursday and feel great now. I just wanted others to be awre so they are not in the same serious position. I have never regretted my sleeve surgery I amdown 60 LBs since june : >

I am day 6 on pre op diet 7 more till im sleaved Im so excited to be through with that part. I cant wait to hear from mellifrits, she had her sleeve today by the same DR I have, hope all went well Im sure she is resting. I have lost 21 Lbs on my own and pre op which feels great, I can wear things that I havent been able to wear, and some things are getting to baggy (Darn :thumbup1:.) I went through my closet today ,Im going to run an add for plus sized clothes, I probably have enough to start a consignment store ha ha ha I like clothes a little :tongue_smilie:. Im excited about cleaning out my closets I have clothes I have saved in smaler sizes( only my favorites) now I know I will get into them soon the rest can go no holding on to them :closedeyes:

I had those problem a bit, it was like it would stick in my chest im 1 week out and its gone : >

I am 1 week post op , at this time I sip little bits all day , if I do more it is very uncomfortable for a few sec.

Hello Joanie,Today is one week post Op Dr Rodriquez at INT nothing bad to say it was an awesome experience , day 2 I thought why did i do this to myself not a regret since , I feel better than i have in so long, my family and friends are shocked that I had major surgerie 1 week ago they have been saying that since day 3 because we went to the coast 3 day post op, to go to costco and visit friends and its been that way since. My brain doesnt work quite as well because of diet loose energy just a bit at times......Full liqueds tommorow. the Hospital nurses DRS were unbelievable. are you sleeved or sleeving ? there is a blog that I went into detail about DRS

have a great surgery.

Im week one I feel great no regrets here. Have a great surgery.

Super doesnt mean bigger, Its different, less invasive and reversable. I had mine wed. and I have not felt this great in years. I was only down and rough the second day, I have been on the go since.

IF i had one it was in and ou and I ws un aware of it. they dont hurt anyway.

Hello I had my GPS wed the 21st in TJ by Dr Rodriquez and I think a panel of DRs. The 2nd day was my worst day I slept most of the day , I have been on the go since 3rd day post op, nobody can believe I just had major surgery. i allready have so much more energy and feel great My clothes are getting loose im down 20 LBS from pre diet and post diet. My experience in TJ was awesome, My DRS and Nurses treated me very well I have nothing but good to say. Dr Rodriques saw me going to get my post op X ray and gave me a big hug , 2 Drs came to my motel at 10:30pm day 2 post op just to check on me and make sure I was taking my meds, they thanked me for trusting them. My anisthiesioloigist held my hand pre surgery she could tell I was nervous, All the belight staff (Patient facilitators)were great, My personal one that I had first contact with was very sweet and helpful, a little absent minded, but all the others I had contact with were awesome and very knowledgble.the hospital INT was modest but sufficient. My driver Roberto was a kick kept life interesting almost feel like he is a bud................... so my experience gets a 9 3/4 out of 10

I fly out tommorow to have my surgery,I cant believe its time allready "yes" Im so ready, im so excited I only worry about my child he is 15 Ive had him since he was 3 I am his emotional support he is my Baby, and he is worried about me going :tongue_smilie: but he will be fine. Its funny because he is a little toughy on the outside but he is still very fragile on the inside. I will post when I can. :closedeyes:

Glad everything is going well for you. I fly out tommorow, its the big day : >

I bought super whey Protein shots, Im saving them for my liquid week 26g protein no mixing they come individule or box of 6 . I got them at wallmart. I dont know what they taste like 1g carb

glad you are feeling better, your home and recuping. Take care thanks for the update

The eggs cook in the broth that was confusing : /

I did soup today mushrooms ,chicken broth and eggs . boil broth and mushrooms then add 1 or 2 scrambeled eggs. ( I used a can of mushrooms) it would be good without the mushrooms if you are not able to eat them. hope your day was good : >

Its ok I was just worried about you. Take care of yourself and get well. How was Dr Rodriquez ? were you in INT hospital if so how was that ? I have less than a week next wedensday : > I cant wait but a LITTLE NERVOUS. Im thinking about you glad your recuping.

HOW ABOUT MUSHED UP POTATOE SALAD. POTATOES ,EGGS ,MAYO A DAB OF MUSTERED , NATURES SEASONING. YUM .REGULARLY I WOULD PUT D PICKES AND OLIVES ITS THE BEST
