Sleeved june 27th ... went from clear liquids to full liquids yesterday. I am allowed to juice as long as there are no chunks. SF chocolate pudding (even though allowed) did not sit well. Thinned cream of wheat or oatmeal without fruit (I put it in my nutibullet with a lil unsweetened almond milk)... success! -

My mother in law just sent my husband and I one in the mail! Got it saturday and went straight to the store to load up on spinach, kale, strawberries, broccoli, carrots, apples and pears. Does anyone add protein powder to theirs? I'm new to self made shakes, but usually drink the premier protein shakes from costco. Can anyone recommend a website for recipes, sample menu, etc?

headed to this sleep study
qweenie86 replied to newlife27's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I deprived myself of sleeping more than 6 hours the two nights before my sleep study. I got there around 730, they hooked me up, watched an hr of tv and didnt even make it to the 10 o'clock news lol. Good luck! -
It depends on ur surgeon, some drs dont make u but mine did

I asked my nurse the same thing about being put completely under, but she said that it's not a procedure that requires you to be. They gave me just enough anesthetics to feel like everything was in slow motion and felt really relaxed. It was over before I knew it. The worst part was getting poked 5 times for the IV so drink plenty of water before fasting.

Recently dx with sleep apnea
qweenie86 replied to Phoenix79's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Still havent set my surgery date yet, but I'm in the first month of using my cpap with a full face mask. Some days are better than others, but for the most part I'm feeling better when I wake up. I was getting restless legs before bed and horrendous headaches in the middle of the nite. I also wake up to the noise of the mask un-suctioning from my face so I just make it tighter and fall back to sleep.
