Where Are My April 2012 Sleevers?



Recommended Posts

Today has been a little worse in terms of pain. I had that excruciating gas pain that I have been reading about. Hopefully the walking will help to get rid of it. I am finally sipping on baby cups of Water. they said I could go home today if I can get enough liquid down and if I want to. We'll see. I made the mistake of hurrying home when I had a c-section. Don't want to rush it but missing my kids!

Happy to hear from you! Yes, the gas pains can be worse than the surgery itself. Don't rush going home! I, too rushed going home after c-section, it turned into a big mess. Got a big ole infection do to not proper resting. When I'm home, I feel like I need to do stuff. Good luck and take it easy!

Less than two hours to go

Good luck to you!

I'm getting sleeved on the 16th. I too have gone through the emotional rollercoaster about this decision. I've read positive things on this website, but I also have read some scary stories. I can only hope and pray for the best. For those of you who have shared your stories, good and not so good, thank you for your continued support to us newbies!

      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.
