Hi everyone I get sleeved on August 30th. I'm really excited as things get close. My pre op appointments are on 8/26. I have an EGD on 8/17 and I start my liquid diet on 8/16. So the next few weeks will be busy for me. I told only a few people because I know how judgemental people can be. But the most important people know. I have prayed for a successful journey and I believe I will be a success.

Good luck to all of the remaining August Sleevers! Thoughts, prayers and best wishes to all of you! Be confident in your decision and the gift you are giving yourselves.

I'm 4 days post op and I'm feeling stronger every day. Tonight I took my 11 year old school shopping at the mall. I gave her a 2 store limit but I can't even believe I'm able to do that yet! I bought a SilveRado charm Bracelet today and I'm going to add a charm for every 10 pounds lost. Looking forward to a full bracelet!

Thank you so much for sharing. I'm kinda freaking out about my surgery, and it's awesome to hear you're doing so well :-)

LovinLife - it is great to hear how good you are doing 4 days postop! Congratulations! The Bracelet idea is cool. A "journey" memory. I like it....

Hello All, Thank you to everyone for the well wishes. I got back from Mexico today at 1am. I am feeling fine, just a little weak. Everything with the surgery went great. I had alot of gas and back pain. I was a total baby when I had to do the leak test! YUK! I also have post surgery depression. Some people get it from the anesthesia. I cry for no reason at all.:) But it should go away soon. My incisions look really good and it no longer hurts to drink Water. I'm trying hard to get in my fluids but its not easy.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
