Same for me! How is the liquid diet going for you? Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

I'd love some broccoli lol. I also had my gallbladder removed so I'm wondering if that's why I'm still in pain.

I had my surgery June 13! I feel fine other than soreness on my left side and the only gas pains I had were in my shoulders as well. To be honest Im over the shakes already and would love some tuna

14 lbs since the surgery on the 16th? Or since the pre op diet began?

WELL I've lost 14 lbs. The slower I sip they say the less the pain will be I don't feel like I've lost anything but that scale made me happy. The stomach incisions don't bother me at all. I guess it's the behavior mods jennyw

We are surgery sisters. Mine was the 16th as well but I'm not in as good of shape with pain management.

J16 - good luck to you tomorrow.

Yes,we are on the same boat..My surgery was 6/17 and I feel like I didn't really go thru intensive surgery...I had a little acid reflux and sore throat but that went away same day. But the dry mouth sucked! I am feeling just fine and normal...just trying to make sure my Protein intake is on point and all my liquids are where they need to be! Congrsts on your new journey!!

I hear you.Mine is Thur and I have a little lump in my throat. I am still more excited than anxious though.
You will do fine. Take some deep breaths and let the fear go.

On my way home. Slight discomfort. But will be worth it!

Just left my first post op. All is good and down 14 lbs jennyw

My surgery is set for tomorrow and though I have been fine with the idea of it for so long I suddenly feel terrified. It's good to see people who have already come through it in good spirits here.

I'm on my 4th day post op and the small scars they left look like little cuts that's healing!! The hospital stay was good they had me there for one night and that's all really you need! They had me on bed rest for the night and in the morning they had me walk down the hall a few times and use the bathroom on my own!! They then did an X-ray to see if I had any leaks which I did not! Then they brought me my first meal which was broth, Jello, Water, tea and ice chips! The hardest part of the whole thing was the dry mouth, it was horrible. Lol!! Today I'm up and around like nothing happened. Just had some vegetable broth and got full off of a few sips!! Not feeling hungry at all! Was 247pds two weeks ago and my scales just said 225pds and I feel more energized and healthy!! Good luck to all having the procedure, it's going to change your life. For the best.

Best to you for tomorrow maggie143!
And to you Dahliairis if you got approved!

Well, last night I was trying to take my meds for nausea and poof. Before it could kick in I got sick. It was not comfortable. I thought I was doing pretty well, but not as well as i thought.

Im having surgery on june 28th. Mixed emotions here. I have a toddler who wants to be held by only me and I am mostly scared about how the change is going to affect her as I wont be able to pick her up, I have been trying to change the way we do things, but it just turns into a meltdown for her. Luckily, her dad is here to help me and my mom will be here when he is at work.
