October Sleevers - Who else
MedinahMongo replied to clefofcividale's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
Congrats! I was also sleeved on the 15'th at University of Chicago medical center. I had a hard time with the pain meds, they were making me sick. 18 hours post op I was on liquid Tylenol and I haven't had issues since. Today I am trying to get all my water in and I got close to all of my protein. Can't wait to see what tomorrow brings. -

So, I'm thinking of starting my pre-op diet early. My surgery is scheduled for October 8 and I want to get my body used to the changes that are coming. Does anyone have an opinion one way or another on this? -
15 months post op (PICS)

OTR- looking great, keep it up! I am going in on October 8 for my sleeve and I have concerns about maintaining muscle mass. Id like to ask 2 questions : first, how long did you wait until starting to lift weights? Second, did your skin bounce back well or do you have some hanging? I'm about the same size (frame at least) that you are in the before pic and I'd like to know what I can expect. Thanks in advance for any advice or tips. -

My pre-op diet is 10 days and consists of a protein shake for breakfast, lean cousins for lunch and dinner, and 4oz fruit 8oz vegetable thought the day for snacks. My liquid diet won't start until post op.
