Yes it will get much easier. I remember someone telling me that. I was like " I doubt it" Let me tell you it does. Right after surgery you don't want to eat. Your body is sore and you are having to recover, the last thing your really want to do is eat. I know it sounds funny but hang in there.

You will be fine. Try to have some "me" time and put all your positive thoughts forward. This is all very positive for "you". Just think, by next year or even sooner you will have a totally different outlook on life. I never had any pain prior to my surgery but make sure your MD is well aware of your needs. You know your body better than anyone else!!!
Take care

I wish you lots of luck with your journey. I was sleeved on Sept.2 in Tijuana and am super happy with my decision.

please go back to your MD. It sounds terrible. There might be something wrong. Ask them to do another x-ray or another bariem swallow to rule out an leaks.
Take care

i totally agree with your blog. I am a nurse and I feel like people are looking at me thinking....Hmmmm... I don't really want to take health advise from her. I'm not sure why we do this to ourselves? I get my sleeve in 5 days and I am getting a little nervous. Keep blogging, I really enjoy the updates.

Hi there. I am going to Tijuana Mexico on Sept 1. I am sooo excited to have my surgery. I live in Canada and my only option (other than paying 18000 here) is going to Mexico. I have spoken to several people who went south to have their surgery done and are very happy with their results. It you have any questions, don't be scarred to ask. Good Luck on your decision!!!

I am about a week into my two week pre-op diet of liquids. I also miss food. I have been having a lot of tomato soup. I am trying to keep my eye on the prize. It's tough....lol.. I'm with ya

Good luck in school!!! I look forward to your next blog

My Doctor is also very strict. I will be on only clear fluid for one week and then full fluids for another week, Only then can I have jello and soups. All Doctors are different. I know it seems painful but the longer you let your stomach heal the better off you will be. Good Luck

i am sooo sorry for your loss. My thoughts and prayers are with you.

That IS a GREAT idea about the mini raviolis. I will have to remember that when it is my time.

I loved your blog. I am starting my pre-op liquid diet tomorrow. I have a very CRAZY 5 year old to keep up to. I'll think of you if I want to kill... lol
