3 more days!!! Today I had a surge of energy. Probably all the naps I had the past few days. Did my last minute grocery run. Even though I already have tons of broth, power aid zero, Jello, pudding, popsicles, I grabbed more. 🤣 I also grabbed gas X just in case. Tomorrow I will get my bag ready. Started the Miralax regimen today per doctors orders. I do have to say the Advanced Impact AR drink from the doctor is so disgusting. I have to chug it and rinse my mouth with mouthwash. Anyone else have to drink this for a few days before?

Good evening I am 4 nights away from my gastric sleeve surgery. I am most nervous about the 3 weeks of liquids after surgery. I’m worried that I may get dehydrated or that I won’t get enough Protein in while I’m recovering. I know everyone says use a timer but I still feel like I am going to need to rest during the day time from the anesthesia.

1. How do I keep up with the fluids and get in enough sleep/rest?

2. How do people tolerate liquids for so long without feeling like they are starving?

3. Provide 1 inspirational phrase or a positive statement

My surgery is Friday July 13th. I’m having the sleeve. I started the liver shrinking diet June 28th Today is Day 5. I have been so exhausted the past two days and only want to nap. Anyone else feel tired?
