Got sleeved this morning and I'm now in my room recovering. I won't lie it was rough for me. I woke up very sick and disorientated. I was so dizzy. But then things turned for the better and they gave me awesome drugs! I felt better quick. Can't stop sleeping and after just a sip of Water makes me feel very full.

Feel better. It will get better. Stay positive and when you are cleared to walk do it. I transitioned a lot from the bed to my chair. Good luck with your leak test tomorrow! You are on your way!!

My bp and diabetes was still a little high while I was in the hospital. It went down by the time I left the hospital to my first 2 week appt. but keep hydrated, very important.

I'm trying to stay hydrated but I have no interest in eating or drinking. I have to down my 4 little shots of Water within an hour lol. I'm feeling much better and actually haven't needed a lot of pain management today.

Sip, sip, sip. I'm sure it sucks!! Glad you're feeling better!! What's your start out weight and goals? I am 5'8" 291 44.2bmi. I'm shooting for 180 which would still put me at "obese" but I don't want to be too picky and I just want to be comfortable again.

I'm 5'6" my starting weight was 283 with a BMI of 43 I think. I would like to get back around 160 or so but 180 doesn't sound bad either just as long as its back in the 100's! Lol. The main thing is for my bp to go down and get off my meds.

I am 5'6" and started out at 183. BMI 43 I think. I would like to get back down to around 160, anything in the 100's! Lol The main goal is to lower my bp and get off my meds.

      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.
