Lucky... The dry mouth is a worse feeling than the pain I feel from the drainage no matter how much water I swish with, it becomes dry within 10 minutes. Tomorrow is a new day though

Ahhh yes I have been swishing my mouth with water too. And you're right! I'm not looking forward to the constipation

Hi there! I HIGHLY suggest waiting to get pregnant until you have dropped all of the weight. It is extremely dangerous for your baby while you are losing weight at a rapid pace

Thank you!!!

Wow! Good luck to you. My surgeon only requires me to have a liquid diet of 5 days pre-op. I couldn't imagine 2 weeks

I would definitely see your doctor ASAP

Mine is tomorrow morning!

I am 24 years old and have struggled with my weight since I was in the 2nd grade. I was raised on happy meals and diet soda. I struggled with an eating disorder in high school because I felt 'fat' next to my friends. I weighed a healthy 150 at 5'6. I now think back and wish I never even started my unhealthy eating habits. At my highest weight, 257 lbs, I decided to look at the Gastric Sleeve surgery. A friend of mine did it and had amazing results. On Wednesday, I will be having my surgery. The past several days on my pre-op diet have been extremely tough. I'm used to eating what I want and when I want it. Unfortunately, my fiancé eats what he wants, usually fast food. He wants to be supportive but is having a hard time changing his eating habits. I have lost 11 lbs since Friday morning (9/28) and I am extremely happy with my decision to have the surgery. I know the journey is just beginning but I am definitely ready for a healthy new start!
