July Master List



Recommended Posts

Update... After double checking my blood levels, blood sugar, and doing my leak test, no bleeders were found. The surgeon came in to let me know that she did irrigate me quite a bit during surgery because I did bleed a lot, but not at a dangerous level, and she feels that that is what is draining off. The amount, and frequency of draining has lessened considerably today. I've walked a bit, and am sitting up in a chair now. They started me on Isopure at about 2PM. So I'm finally no longer NPO! My gas pain still hasn't been bad, and I haven't had hardly any nausea. The incision on my left side burns like hellfire when I stand or even move though! Thank you all for your kid words and thoughts and prayers! LaVale, I'm sorry we won't have our surgiversary together too! But I do hope they get you in and done SOON!!

Well, I'm back from vacation and I enjoyed my last real meals. It's kinda weird to say goodbye to everything you eat...like this is the last time I'll ever eat 4 slices of pizza again, or a big ol' plate of sausage gravy and biscuits. Anyway, I start the pre-op diet tomorrow and I'm looking forward to it, sorta. This trip to the beach definitely made me happy with my decision to have the surgery. There were so many of those uncomfortable fat days! I just kept thinking ahead to the next beach vacation and how much better I'll look and feel about myself.

I'm glad to hear how well everyone has done with their surgeries this month. Good luck to those who are still waiting to go.

Thanks! The sooner the better for me. My doctor is so hard core....if you loose the amount of weight he wants or if there is any problem at all...he will cancel you on the spot. I literally got someone's spot who was sitting in the waiting room with me that day of pre-op. Helps me stay on track! :-)

I will be sleeved on July 25, getting nervous but still excited, this site has been the best!! Still trying to figure out how to use it fully, tried to get a ticker up and could not, I guess my kids will have to help me, LOL, thanks for the forum and good luck to all you July firecrackers!

Decided to copy the June sleevers! Someone mentioned that we should have a master list of everyone who was sleeved in July just like the June sleevers. I will gladly take this on :) Please let me know if you need to be added to the list, removed from the list, or if your date is wrong. I will update as often as possible. I just gathered dates from posts in the July forum

This should make it easier to follow up with each other, compare progress, complain together, Celebrate together... all that good stuff :) For some reason, it would not let me update the original post to add any more people? It's very strange, so here is an updated list of all our July Firecrackers. Wooooohooooo!!! smile.gif Please let me know if I need to add anyone or change any dates.

liquid is going Ok, I am doing 2 shakes and one small lean and green meal, that was the choice I was given and it is working and getting easier as long as I remember to drink my Water. I am getting excited and nervous and I am really thanking God for this website because it helps to calm my fears so much. I wish I could figure out how to add all the wonderful graphics everyone has on their profiles. I have my pre op testing tomorrow so I am really getting close. Good luck to you and all my July Sleeve Sisters!

      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.
