I'm anxious now about not getting in enough Protein. Water, etc. But I'm learning to let it go and know I'm doing the best i can.

I was a mess with anxiety right up until I woke up in recovery and found out it went great! Two weeks later, i dont have a care in the world regarding my sleeve. I know as long as I follow the rules my chances of success are great.

Best of luck to you!

I too was anxious up until I got rolled into the operating room. :( I was scared and second guessing my choices. When I awoke in recovery I felt alert and excited!! I was in no pain and I was talking and laughing and just totally relieved!!! I am 6 days Post-Op...I feel amazing!!! I slept in my bed for the first time last night since surgery and had a great nights rest! I'm still on Clear Liquids but healing well and haven't had ANY nausea!!! I'm not hungry so I've been content on liquids!! I'm down 25 pounds and my hubby is saying, "Babe you're looking good" what a sweet feeling that is!! :D I can't wait to see surgeon on Thursday, hoping I've healed enough to move to the soft/smooth/puree part of the plan.

Good Luck to all of you, the soon to be sleevers, the new sleevers and the oldies!!! We are in this journey together and it's great to have somewhere to go and talk about our achievements and our bumps in the road!!!!

God bless you ALL!!!

      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.
