that's the right attitude. do it for you. if no one supports you there come here. my daughter didn't want me to do the sleeve. she wanted something that was reversible. I was going to do the lap band for her. I didn't. reversible isn't an option, I have fought my weight all my adult life. hubby and son are supportive. co-workers that know are too.....

good luck and don't sweat the gas stuff. I did. I was lucky and had none. I hated waiting to get leak test done the next day so I could get a drink.

Who's feeling/ felt starved during the liquids stage?
jane13 replied to bringingsexyback1's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
I haven't felt that way too much. I have heard my stomach growl. I am not taking prevacid unless I feel heartburn, which I haven't felt yet. the worst for me was the thirst waiting for my leak test Thursday a week ago. I would've licked the condensation off the window if I could've. that sucked.... -

I was sleeved at 8am Wednesday and left Thursday night. I had a reaction different than @@makemyownluck mine sped up. they ran multiple tests to be sure there were not clots. -
@@jackiemc1987 I am thinking forcing yourself to eat wouldn't be right either - I don't know. Maybe you should post on another forum here like the veterans

@ JustBeth13 have you heard anything since your last post? I am going into surgery tomorrow.

that's a scary thought - never heard that one. Hopefully someone will be able to answer that. I can ask the surgeon RIGHT before I go into surgery :[

it must be in the air, I couldn't sleep last night either....surgery should be over by tomorrow at this time. I am excited and scared too!

do you have any other comorbidities like pre-diabetic, high blood pressure, sleep apnea? I don't have Aetna but I will keep the candles lit here for you in Florida!

Congrats! I should hopefully be out of surgery tomorrow at this time and I hope to feel the same way

I am craving it like I am pregnant. I love PB and I have really missed yogurt & fruit the last 12 days - pre-op diet bites ;/ just sayin' Anybody else out there struggling with one particular food on the pre-op????
