Ta been almost 24 hrs since my sleeve. Here's a quick update.

Last night was pretty rough with nausia most of the night and into this morning. Turns out it was "motion" nausia and once they treated that it swim s to be subsisting. I'm now walking 3 laps every 30 mins. Things seem to be progressing well.

Excellent! I was sleeved on 03/13/2013 in Baton Rouge at OLOL by Dr. Brent Allain who is in my opinion the best in the buisness.

Let's keep in touch. I am a die hard LSU fan as I can see you are too. I would be more than happy to answer any questions you may have.

I have lost nearly 60lbs in 7 weeks!

That's right! Walk, walk, walk! : ) My biggest complaint was burping up the trapped gas. The infant gas drops mylicon helps. I stayed 24 hours in hospital alone and it was no fun but all the discomfort will soon pass and you will be feeling great very soon. WTG! Congrats!

Thank You! I was determined to take this to a whole new level. This has been a huge blessing to have this opportunity that I see so many are having complications with insurance to have done.

It feels so good to have given away 3 and 4X shirts. Dropped 2 pants sizes. Had to cut my belts shorter. My barber did not recognize me when I walked in Thursday.

      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.
