Hi I know I'm pretty early to ask ,but is there anyone getting sleeved in November?

I'm traveling 7th Nov having surgery at the OOC with Dr Ortiz and then traveling back the 14th as he wants you to stay until the drain is out.

Hoping there are some others out there.

Yep, 1st November is my date (done in Stockholm, Sweden where I live). Curious about this drain you mention? I have not heard or read about any drain for the op I'm having done?! Why and where is this placed? :confused1:

I too am having my surgery in Nov, at OOC with Dr. Ortiz. I am doing my surgery week of Thanksgiving.. I have been on this site daily readying everything I can. I almost changed surgeons but decided to stick with Dr. Ortiz, he seems the most qualified. It is such a tough decision. I am ready to do it now , I hate having to wait. I love readying everyones post, there is sooooo much support on these forums its amazing.. Good luck and I hope to keep up with your success..

The doctor's place a drain tube under the skin in the abdomen through one of the ports used for surgery, so any fluid/blood can exit the body. My doctor removed mine on day 3, I think as long as your not draining a ton of Fluid they can remove it rather quickly. The rest of the Fluid then is absorbed by your body.

I had one on each side of my stomach when I had a Tummy Tuck. I got those out around day 7.

Hi Ka,

Are you going to INT Hospital in TJ?

I have also been eating like mad!! I ate a big ice cream cone tonight, it was good!:cursing: I dont think I have to start my preop till 2 weeks before, When are you starting yours?

I am very nervous and still really worried about leaks and stuff.

I hope everything goes good for you as well.

I'm sure I will put on another 10 lbs befor I go on my diet.

Talk to you soon,

Lisa~

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
