  1. 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??
  2. 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?!

    Preop liquid

    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?

  7. I'm only at the end of day 2 out of 14... Any ideas to make this easier? Or to make it feel more doable?

    Preop liquid diet ideas

    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?
  9. 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?

    Liquid diet

    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

    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??

    Got my date!

    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?
