I was just sleeved yesterday. I'm being realised today. Follow the diet and what your drs tell you. My dr was so pleased with outcome and my recovery has been great. I'm extremely sore and sore throat. But they keep reassuring me that I'm doing great. Good luck Feb sleeves! You all are going to do great!

Follow the liquid diet plan your drs have given you. I'm so happy I did. I had my surgery yesterday with no complications. It only took an hr and half. I'm extremely sore but I'm doing great. I will be released today. My dr was so pleased with how far I've come and in my recovery. My throat is sore so I've had popcicles and ice cold water. That helps so much. I had some discomfort with heart burn in my chest and grogginess from anesthesia. I'm still pretty high from the pain killers they have given me so I hope this helps and makes sense lol Good luck guys! I'm in the biggest loser club!!

My surgery date is Feb 1st too. I am day 11 of the 2 week pre op diet and I cheated on day 8. I ate 4 bites of cottage cheese. I felt so guilty that I called my husband crying lol I read that it takes 48 to 72 hrs for your body to absorbe food which made me feel a little bit better. But we are all human and it happens. I wouldn't start a habit of chewing food and spiting it out. But if you are doing it more then I would see a therapist to talk about it. Good luck!!

On Day 11 of my liquid diet. It's been rough. I did semi cheat on day 8. . .I ate 4 bites of cottage cheese and then cried lol Feb 1st is so close. Tonight I am packing my hospital bag because my surgery is at 9:40 am on Friday. My husband bought me a shirt that says Downsizing in Progress to wear the day of surgery. lol He gets me haha I'm so anxious and excited at the same time. 8 months of hard work and 47 lbs already gone. Congratulations to all the Feb Sleevers!!!

I'm on day 7. . .I felt crappy the first few days but it got easier. . .7 more to go. . You got this! I keep reminding myself that healthier and skinnier you is waiting to show up to show out 2019. Good luck!

On day 7 of my liquid diet with 7 more days to go and I've lost 15 lbs so far just being on the diet. I'm really excited about the weight loss. I haven't cheated on my diet. I've stuck to 5 protein shakes, 64 oz of water, 2 Jell-O cups and 2 bowls of broth. But I'm so ready for Feb 1st to get here.

Warning this rant is a little TMI. lol Weds I started my monthly flow and I started my liquid diet today also pre-admission testing today as well. I have 13 more days to go for my pre-op diet. I told my best friend to do a wellness check on my husband this weekend. lmao It's coming to the end of the day and my stomach wont stop gurgling. Its a loud gurgle sound too. It started happening about 5pm. I've had some looks from people because of how loud it was. haha I've had 4 protein shakes, 2 jell-o cups, 2 servings of broth and 50oz of water. My next protein shake isn't for another 1hour and I still have 2 more cups of water to drink. I don't have any food cravings but my stomach says feed me!!!! lol I've had the poos all day with a nasty headache. Just keep telling myself that tomorrow will be better and the day after will be better and the day after that will be better. haha Just feel like crawling into bed and waiting for Feb 1st to get here already.

Surgery Twin!! Good Luck! I'm nervous about the liquid diet. You ladies are going to do great! We are almost there!!!!!

I am jealous and excited for you at the same time!! Good Luck!!!! You are going to do great!!!

My surgery date is Feb 1st. I start my liquid diet on Friday. Its right around the bend

I could not imagine the grief that your family is feeling. I am so sorry for your loss. Such a tragedy to loose someone so young. Sending prayers to you and your family.

I would consult your dr about the pain. Sometimes loosing that much weight the skin sets differently on your body and actually can pull causing pain or discomfort. Hope you find relief soon.

You look great girl!! Congratz!!!!!

My dietitian told us if we want coffee and instead of creamer to add a scoop of vanilla protein to it with some Splenda if it needs to be a little sweeter. But I like the hot chocolate idea too.

Getting closer to our surgery dates! I just ordered my protein shakes online for my liquid diet on Friday. I was able to get Boost Smart Calorie at Walmart for $7.84 for a 6 pack so I ordered 11 and plus side its being delivered to my door. My Dr's office charges $22 for a box of protein shakes that has 7 servings . Thought I would share my deal finder in case anyone elses Dr's office lets them have Boost Smart Calorie for the liquid diet. Good Luck!!!! :)

I don't know how long I should actually take off of work. My surgery is on a Friday so I took off the weekend and that Monday. How many days or weeks did you guys take off. My Dr said it was up to me how many days I actually take off because I do not have a strenuous job and no lifting is required so he said a few days then I should be okay to return.

Congrats!!! its almost here!!! you are going to do great!!!!

I have a desk job as well. I wear a bulky lab coat and scrub pants. Maybe i'll go buy some yoga pants to help for the first couple of weeks. I do have a coworker that is on stand by incase I need more time off which is super sweet of her to do for me.

Congratulations!! That's wonderful!! My drs office told me to take a picture of myself every month because you can really see the difference when you can't see it on the scale. Keep up the good work!!!!
