Greetings June sleeves! I had my sleeve yesterday, June 3rd! All has gone well. My surgery was in the morning and I was up walking in the early afternoon. I have only been allowed ice chips so far. I have not experienced any hunger since Sat after the bowel prep. Right now I am just thirsty. I go to Tue surgeons office later this morning for a leak check and then on to a 2 1/2 drive home.

Congratulations, I am so glad that you are doing well. How is the pain? I am a big baby when it comes to that!

Hey Juners! I was sleeved yesterday morning!!!! I just passed the leak test and spoke to the doctor, he said the surgery went very smoothly. I have been walking the halls since yesterday afternoon, it really is the "secret" to get rig of the crampy gas pains, then all I am left with is the incisional pain. I am trying to eat some chicken broth right now, it is actually comical.. I take 1 small spoonful and have to burp 3 times...

      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.
