How far post op are you? My surgeon said if I just have to have a coke. I can after 3 weeks. He said fill glass with ice and pour coke over it and let it sit for at least 20 minutes while the Ice melts and water dilutes and bubbles leave. I had quit sodas about 4 months before surgery. It was a tough item to give up because a sonic cherry Dr Pepper was like therapy from a awful day at work. :-). Good luck!

10 pounds in one week is awesome! Don't sell yourself short. liquids to prevent dehydration is the most important thing to focus on. Stay upbeat.... :-)

Praying for those being sleeved today and for those recovering. Thank you Jesus for the surgeons, nurses and support staff. Lead and guide each of them. Thank you for your healing hands. To you be the glory!

Good evening ladies and gents. Update. Surgery 12/21. All is going well. Today has been very light pain only enough to constitute 1 pain pill around noon today. Thanks for all the prayers, well wishes and the after surgery virtual flowers. Tomorrow we fly home. ThecruveJ was a great sleeve buddy and her traveling friend who had surgery 10 months ago was truly a God Sent. Kim..... Thank you...... ThecurveyJ. Keep in touch. Let me know you make it home safe. Head out to walk a few laps and the sip sip sip. Merry Christmas!

Yeah! Have been cleared for ice chips and walking.

I am back in room. Sleepy! I had a hernia that was also repaired. My hubby is aging tacos. They smell I amazing. So far so good. Woot woot.

Let's get this party started! Prayers for all slivers today!

I am your surgery buddy! I am so ready to be on the losers bench. Praying and hoping we have a good surgical experience and a smooth recovery.

Advise..... Woke up. Head hurting, throat, and snot ( yuck).Coughing, ears aching. Surgery Friday. Any things you ca take pre surgery? Wondering if surgery will even happen. Yikes... Not good.

Hey MoodWhiskey. Glad things are going well. Wishing you a speedy recovery. I'll be sleeved by Dr Alvarez on 12/21. So so nervous. Take care and stay in touch. I look forward to keeping up with your successful journey.

All I want for Christmas is: A smooth complication free surgery on 12/21. Memories with friends and family. Peace for all the parents that lost their babies in the school shooting the other day. A pair of sexy panties instead of granny style. Ha!

12/21 sleeve date. Excited, nervous, scared, excited! I have been doing a lot of reading on this site for the last couple of months but have never posted anything till now. I will be sleeved by Dr Alvarez.

I am scheduled for a vsg on 12-21-2012 with dr Alvarez. My nerves are about to get the best of me. During al this process I hurt my Back and see a neurologist Monday 17th. I'm afraid I may have to cancel my appt. I have a herniated disc at my L5. I will be stuck between which surgery fo I have first. Any thoughts? If I am able to keep my appt I will probably see you walking in the halls. I wish you a great surgery and speedy recovery.
