In less than 10 hours I will have my sleeve.
Quickly replied to Quickly's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Welp.. I had my sleeve Tuesday the 8th and Today is Thursday the 10 th. The first day is the worse. Thank goodness for pain meds. I started at 274.6 the day I started pre-op liquid diet (14 days). The day of surgery I was 260.3. Today two days later I am 255. Its difficult journey, but every hour it gets better. Hopefully, I will discharged in the morning tomorrow. -

Freaking out... scared and happy at the same time. Is that even possible? Got to take a shower before bed with hibiclens. I hope I can sleep. -
Omg... waking up hurt!!! Thank God for PCA Morphine. The worse of my pain is just below my Diaphragm. Lots of gas. I vomitted once, felt better after that. Every hour that passes I feel better!! Thanks for all your support. Good luck to all of those preparing. If I can do it, anyone can.

I chose the sleeve because of no changes in absorbtion of vitamins etc.. Thanks for all your support. I am getting in the shower one last time to wash with hibiclens and off to the hospital. I will keep you all updated. Good luck to all of you and your pre-op's... (its really hard to sleep the night before). -
Thanks... I was really concerned about thanks! You made my day

You can do what ever you let yourself do. Good luck. You WILL do it

Ok... I have a question. I have my surgery tomorrow for the sleeve. My dream is to run a 5k. My biggest concern is, how do you stay hydrated, considering limited sleeve space when drinking your water. My plan is to start running with my daughter 6 weeks post op.

I know you can not drink 30 minutes before and after a meal. How do you pace this say... at a resturaunt and you want to join in on a glass of wine?? Just wondering??

Thanks... I often, in the past, liked to go out Dinner and afterwards chat with friends over a good glass of wine. I have my surgery tomorrow and I was thinking about that. Super duper excited and ready. Been on 2 week clear liquid 3x a day protein drink. Today is my last day before surgery and I know that I will be on liquids for another 5 weeks. So, I am looking forward to a nice dinner and a cup of wine... Lol Thanks for your input -
Great!! I am sure you will do well. Speedy recovery .. (mine is tomorrow)
-
Hang in there, it gets easier. Just avoid being around food as best you can. I have been on 12 days of the liquid pre-op 2 more to go. The first few days are tough. Get sugarless gum and sugar free italian ice. They have array of sugarfree gum flavors... I know post op I can not chew gum, but its helping me pre-op. Geting that chomping feeling ... good luck, it goes by fast!

Day 11 of clear liquid sugar free with 3 protein drinks a day and.... I am also cranky, but calm myself by doing the count backwards from 10 thingy, it helps. Yes..
