How long were you on the full fluid stage before you were allowed to move on to the puree stage?!

Is there anyone who did NOT have to follow a pre op diet?

Is there anyone who did NOT have to follow a pre op diet?

Can anyone tell me which protein shakes they were having right after surgery? Right now I use premier protein or body fortress with skim milk.

So you were having milk in the protein shakes while on clear fluids?

What are you mixing it with?

I was informed you CAN have gum, but it can NOT be bigger than a piece of trident.

Is anyone still smoking or has anyone started smoking again?

What surgery did your friend have? The bypass?!

Did anyone quit so they can this procedure? Does anyone still smoke and its less than 6 weeks before your procedure?

I don't plan on smoking again. Like I said I only had about 5 cigarettes since feb 18. I don't crave it.

Your hungry? Or you want to smoke? My surgery is Wednesday.

They haven't told me they are doing a nicotine test. And I've only smoked 5 since feb 18 so I'm guessing I will be ok. My surgery is april 24th I last smoked one last Wednesday because I've been so stressed.

I quit smoking cigarettes feb 18th but I've had a few since then maybe about 5....

Has anyone had their gall bladder out or a c section? If so which was more painful the c section, gall bladder or the sleeve?!

Has anyone not had a strict pre op diet? What kind of pre op diet were you put on?

Now down 11lbs*

Don't feel bad about the 9 my Dr told me to loose 15lbs pres op but since I quit smoking in Feb I gained 20. I'm now 11. My surgery is April 24th and I am having the hardest time with my pre op diet. I'm supposed to have 3 protein shakes 2 apples 6oz of lean mea with as many non starchy vegetables I want

I had a c section and mmy gall bladder out. I'm scheduled to have a sleeve on 4/24 and so far I thought the c section was my worse. The gall bladder was easy for me.

How soon after the surgery are you able to walk up and down stairs? My procedure is 4/24 but I have stairs where I live

I'm scheduled for april 24th....i am excited but now I'm starting to get nervous

Thanks! When I had a c section I was going up and down the stairs 4 days out
