At the hospital. Will have my surgery in about 2 hours. Did all the blood work, ekg, and xray yesterday. Very easy and painless. The staff here are wonderful. I love Lucy. Everything is clean. Can't say enough good things. I will post form the loosers bench next time.

I got my sleeve. Now if only I could sleep. I am in some painand the only thing that relives it is standing or wilking. Well a girl can only stand so long. I am hoping the gas lets up gust a little bit.

Julienick77 how did your surgery go. Thinking of you.

CONGRATS!!! It's gets better everyday. My only suggestion for the gas is Gas-X strips. Some peeps here on the forum said it work wonders. Good luck!!!! :D

I love your name. It would be fun to have the surgery as a secret I think. Its not just a tool but a SECRET tool. I like that !! There is a certain satisfaction in keeping your business to yourself.

Hey girl, I'm back home and doing well. I lost my voice but other than that I feel good. I plan to go back to work tomorrow. I have a full schedule so lets keep our fingers crossed that I make it through the day. I only have a half day wednesday. My worst day was the day I came home from the hospital. I had not been taking any meds while in the hospital because I didn't think I needed them and I think the drive was a little too much. All better now. I drove 3 hours from my parents to my home today and that wasn't too bad. I've been having alot of Powerade slushes but can't take the Protein bullets. Hope you are doing well. Keep in touch.

      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.
