Any Oklahoma Sleevers

Good luck with everything' date=' Kimmy. The sleep study is NOT fun, but tolerable. You will just go home and go to sleep. Your six months will be up before you know it. Hang in there..... :)[/quote']

I liked the 2nd night of the sleep study... When they put the mask on. I had never slept so good

Hi fellow Okies!! I'm getting sleeved with Dr. Broussard tomorrow. I'm on my one day of Clear Liquids before the surgery, and I have so much more sympathy for the folks who were required to be on weeks of liquids!!! It's been just 8-10 hours of clear liquids and I already just want the surgery over with so I can get to some solid food again :) It's good to know there are several of us that have used WeightWise, and it seems like it's been a generally positive experience!

Good luck, OKSleever! I had a great experience with Dr. B. He did my surgery 3 weeks ago tomorrow. The surgery will likely be the easiest part of your journey. The adjustments it causes you to make, that the hard part...at least that has been my experience thus far.

Thanks for all the well wishes everyone!! Surgery went fairly smoothly; they found a liver lesion they think is benign but otherwise it went perfectly. Tolerating liquids really well, walking every chance I get, and hope to go home later today! Love WeightWise and Dr. B; would recommend them to anyone!!!!

Ditto to Kimmy's post! And personally I have my last appt with my NUT b4 surgery on May 2nd all of my pre-op appts are done and info submitted to the surgeons office so that after that appt they will be able to send everything off to insurance. We are thinking last week of may or first week of June for me... Every day my mood about it changes a little happy, excited, scared, ready to get it over with!!! I hope that I am one of the one's saying this is the best decision I could have made.

      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.
