Hi all.. I'm looking for reassurance I was sleeved April 15, tonight is my first night home. I'm sore. Tender. And taking Percocet every 4 hours like clockwork out of fear pain will be too much to handle. Suggestions? Advice? Feedback??

Hey all, anyone else scheduled for April? Is there any interest in starting a group for support? Starting w the liquid diet ... All the way to a year later?!

goldissa762 replied to goldissa762's topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
How's it going??? I was sleeved April 15. I'm home. In nasty pain. Trying to do everything they said. I'm surprised the gas hasn't dissipated yet! How r u doing? -
I'm on day 9.. 5 more to go. I know I read more than once it gets easier after day 4.. But I disagree!!! Today was tough, I feel like I want to give up. (I have no plan or intent to do so) I also have a cold which isn't helping. My surgery is 04/15/14. Please tell me someone out there can relate?

Preop liquid diet ideas
goldissa762 replied to goldissa762's topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
I can have up to three shakes/day But have only been able to get one per day down. I had some chicken broth. Maybe the decaf coffee is a good idea. Do you use that instead of water with powder? -
First day of preop liquid diet tomorrow and IM A MESS!
goldissa762 posted a topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
I am freaking out! I am anxious, panicky and overall freaked out! My sleeve date is April 15, tomorrow I start the liquid preop diet - I feel so nauseous, stomach pain and awful which I'm thinking is psychosomatic! I am starting to think maybe I should just diet harder or try something else. I'm 38, female, 5 feet and weigh 300lbs! Obviously, I need to do this... Am I having cold feet? Please someone out there shed some light for me and validate how I feel?! Did other people feel like this? -
Hey.. I am also being sleeved April 15.. Start liquid preop tomorrow - I'm 38, 5 feet 300 lbs. I am starting to panic!

Lol thanks for the humor! -
When on the liquid diet... Can you drink coffee? Eat sugar free ice pops? Or anything? Will I have enough energy to still work full time, manage two kids (ages 5 and 7)..and not be a royal bitch on wheels lol?

Sleeved yesterday
goldissa762 replied to mommyof3sweetboys's topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
It can only get better from here?? I'm not sure if that is helpful but it's the best reframe I can think of. I received my date yesterday (April 15) and I'm totally freaked out lol (after waiting 5 months I thought I was prepared) One day at a time, one second at a time? How long did you stay in hospital? How gross was the drink for the leak test?? -
Hi all, after 5 months of appointments, I have been approved for gastric sleeve surgery! My date is April 15, 2014! Honestly? I'm a mess. I didn't expect to be. I didn't think I would have the date for at least another two weeks. I know it's good to get it over with. But I feel like I'm falling apart. Intellectually I know I'm doing the right thing. Emotionally, I'm overwhelmed and feeling broken. Can anyone relate?
