You will be fine. Just keep breathing and know that you are starting the rest of your life tomorrow. The sleeve was the best decision I made and I know it will be for you, too.

Just keep breathing and relax.

Good Luck tomorrow. I am a few days postoperative, but have been on Lovonox since the surgery and am not having any problems. Your physician will carefully monitor your levels and adjust. The surgery is minimally invasive so blood loss is minimized. My weight and situation are similar to yours. Just keep your physician informed and be aware of any minute changes in your condition. Don't wait to call your physician if you think there is a problem.

Keep a positive attitude and let us know when you are back at home. This journey is amazing! Prayers are with you.

      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.
