Haha, no problem! I removed it.

I'm not telling people either. Very few people know. My name came up in a google search the other day on these boards, and, since I have a really "unique" first and last name, it would've been way too obvious. I requested that the person who posted it also remove my name.

I was sleeved 2 days ago on April 3rd. So far so good. Pain is now controlled with plain tylenol and levisen. Can't get the Protein down yet but am able to eat SF popsicles and sip flavored waters. Tried Carnation Instant Breakfast yesterday but was so tight I was miserable after taking only 2 ounces over 45 minutes. Doc said to focus on getting liquids down and then add Protein Shakes when some of the swelling has lessened. Plan to try Protein Shake again tomorrow. Have been outside walking 2 times today, little further each time. I am cold all over but it is warm outside, I hear that this being cold can be part of the change that happens pretty quickly post op. Stomach muscles are really sore but not really what I would call pain. I am using the heating pad on my stomach and it helps a lot. I am not hungry at all. Urinating was difficult for the first 24 hours but has gotten much easier once I got home last evening. I did not have a foley catheter in the hospital. Good luck to all April Sleevers that are still waiting for surgery. This isn't so bad and the results will be so worth it!!

I'm thinking about starting a Facebook page for all of us April sleevers to keep each other accountable. If I were to do this' date=' would anyone be interested in joining? Sometimes it's difficult to keep up with all the messages on the original April thread. Just wondering. :)

EDIT: I went ahead and made the group. It is a "Secret" group to protect the privacy of those of us who aren't telling friends & family about our procedure. No one outside of the group will be able to see the group itself, who is a member, and the posts therein. To be added, please pm (private message me) the e-mail address you have associated with facebook, and I will send you an invitation right away. The invite will be from Khloé. :)

      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.
