Absolutely totally understand! I might do the same, I am supposed to be puree on Tuesday..a day or two shouldn't hurt! Thanks for sharing your progress I am glad you're doing well!!

Hi everyone! I am new here and wanted to see if anyone is having surgery on or near Feb 2?! I am having the gastric sleeve done. Since Covid is still causing hospitals to be overflowing they are doing my surgery as a day surgery. Has anyone had this done as a day surgery? I'm nervous and excited and still in shock that it's happening! I am a little concerned with it being a day surgery but I'm sure they know what they're doing. Any tips or tricks would be appreciated!

I have been wondering about this! I am day 11 post op sleeve and am dying to eat something of substance...puree would he heaven. I almost did it today and made eggs but I didn't. I am so afraid of doing something wrong and ending up back in the hospital.

Thank you sooo much for this. It is amazing how strangers can be so much more supportive than my own family. Seriously much appreciated ❤

It was rough. Very rough. I am in the regret stage right now for sure. After surgery my blood pressure was very high and I was on telemetry for my heart (I've never had issues prior). I was so so so sick and really struggled. I was discharged home and still sick. Today is day 6 and I am struggling mentally with the food breakup. I want food so badly. I know I will get over it and time will pass and I will be able to eat again, but it is mentally tough. I am feeling a little better, but would really love a burger right now lol time will pass and ill get better. And hopefully in a few months I won't regret this as much as I do now.

Thats awesome!! Congratulations!! I hope it continues to go well for you!

It is soo hard! My surgeon didn't require a long liquid diet. Only the day before. Best of luck to you, it is something that challenges you mentally for sure. Take care of you!

That is so good to hear! 8 definitely underestimated the first few days lol! Thanks for your support!

Yes everything will go smoothly! The staff at the hospital have everything down to a perfect science and will take great care of you and also it so great to have your husband be so supportive! Best of luck and keep us updated!! Thank you for all of your support ❤

Thank you so much ❤ I made it home from the hospital finally and am doing much better with keeping fluids down and not as much nausea. Thank you for thinking of me!!

Hey! So this was a lot rougher than I had anticipated. I'm on day 3 and still very naseaus and vomiting. Gas pains are terrible and I am doing my best to keep walking. My BP was very elevated in the hospital and I ended up staying instead of it being a day surgery due to the nausea and vomiting. I am only able to get 1oz down of protein shake and that takes me over an hour. I am able to keep water down but that also takes me so long. Hoping as the days go on things will improve! They have to! I am definitely in the "I wish I never did this" stage.

Well the day is here and all has gone as planned so far! I am waiting for my turn now.

Good luck to you too!!

Yay!! Surgery buddies! I meet with the nutritionist (for the hundredth time lol) on Wednesday morning and I am assuming will start liquid diet after that? They haven't instructed me yet to start but maybe then. I also am not doing well at all with dieting/lifestyle changes. I have been at this waiting for so long it starts to feel like it will never happen and I keep letting myself down in old habits and cycles. Hopefully as more real this gets for us and when it actually is happening that will get our momentum back! We got this!! Good luck to you!!

I hear you on that! They made me go through quite the program to get to this point and between it all I have been in and out of the hospital with back issues that pushed this off, so all together I've been waiting 2 years since I decided this was for me. I cried when I finally got to meet with the surgeon! Good luck to you and I'll make sure to post when I have mine done! Sent from my SM-N975U using BariatricPal mobile app
