    Hey guys! I'm doing great! Sorry, this new stupid format for the forum never tells me when my threads update!! So frustrating. I'm sure I'm not getting in enough protein or liquids, but I'm more or less satisfied. Protein shakes are the devil and i rarely bother choking them down. Sadly caught a cold and have to get wisdom teeth out on top of everything! SOOOO excited for next week when I get to eat chicken! I could sing! Then I might be getting in too much protein in a day hahaha. Gonna cook super healthy, easily digested protein and chew chew chew. No more gas, my incisions look CRAZY awesome, they might not even scar except maybe my drain.

    I am doing better and better each day. First couple were tough, no gas pain but my sleeve was inflamed and was causing me to throw up. They gave me a shot of anti-inflamatories and things got much better. Wasn't able to move comfortably for a little while, but now rolling over, sitting/standing is a lot less troublesome! I can even sleep on my side now my incisions look REALLY good. If I have any scars at all, they're gonna be minor for sure!
  6. Alright well anytime I have asked for advice on the canadians threads no one even bothers to respond with a hello let alone give advice but I'm desperate so I'll ask again any way. I can't find an Incentive spirometer anywhere. The only places that will ship to me are in the states and will take too long to get here. I desperately need one. Where did any of you get yours?! I have checked every pharmacy in the city, contacted respiratory clinics, online searches and I am BEYOND frustrated!

  8. Hehehe I think you're confusin me with someone else I'm from Canada I used to weigh every day especially during my preop diet. But now I don't want to put that pressure on this early. Oddly enough, I'm not even really curious either >.<

    Thank you everyone for your concern!! It's been busy and hectic, yesterday was awful, started my journey back home at 6am and didn't get home until 1am the following day. Three flights, four airports and touching dirt in three different countries. It's been overwhelming, emotional and tough in spots, but overall I shouldn't complain... I feel awful for Karlily!
  12. Best of luck I was sleeved only 3 days ago
  13. And can't keep fluids or medication down. Going to OCC soon in hopes they can help. So far I'm the only one in my group with this problem and its been a bit of a struggle!

    Well, I have had zero had pain this far without even doing much walking... But I've been vomiting... It hurts and sucks a lot to do that.
  16. Gatorade or Powerade? I can get it down, but I keep puking... I hope that passes and is normal >.< first day post op so everything is still pretty fresh

    Thank you both so much!! I fly out Monday morning
  23. Pre op liquid diet, Day 8 of 15. I lost 6 pounds the first two days then stalled the last five days. This morning I got on the scale and was happy to see the stall broken, down almost another three. I weighed after my BM and shower and figured I'd weigh again after I dried off. Dry hair and feeling like I was gonna be a full three pounds down, I stepped on the scale to be bewildered by a two pound increase, half a pound difference from where I have been the last five days. I was dry, naked and hadn't eaten or drank anything yet and so I am now ready to freak out, give up and eat all the burgers. This b******t makes no sense! I am on the verge of tears all the time. I have done low carb diets in the past and lost 38 pounds in two weeks. Now I'm on liquids for 15 days and losing nothing. I'd rather make sensible choices and lose the weight then this pointless suffering for nothing. I know it'll help for when I'm out of surgery and blah blah blah but ffs I'm BEYOND frustrated. If I'm denied surgery after all of this I might kill some one. At this point I don't need support, I need a gosh darn lobotomy.
