I understand completely...I had surgery atv730a and they released me from the hospital at 130p....it hurts me to take a deep breath feels like I was hit in the ribs....but my main issue is getting in the fluids....

You need the deep breaths to help prevent possibility of pneumonia.

I've done all the per-op necessities,I'm just waiting on my insurance company ,how long did it take for your insurance company to approve and contact your Dr.? It has been since April 18th that my Dr. Submitted the paperwork to my insurance .I would really like to have a early June surgery . I'm getting a little anxious I guess.

My authorization took 3 weeks which is extremely rare, most often it is a month or more. Hope your's is fast too

Gas has been unbearable but it get easier when you walk. Not eating much but I am not Hungary. Just trying to force my Water down and Protein shakes!!!! Doing better than yesterday. How is everyone e else?

I'm doing well... Two days after surgery....gas bubbles can be a pain...liquids go down and bubbles coming up at the same time sucks...glad to hear your doing well

May 20th' date=' 15 days to go, seems like a long time. They have me on what they consider the fast track, 2 1/2 weeks of pre op education. Hoping I can lose the required 15 pounds by the 19th doing the shakes? Not too confident <img src='http://www.bariatricpal.com/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/sad.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='' />[/quote']

I'm actually not using insurance. I'm going to Tijuana. By the 24th I will have waited about six weeks. I started liquids last Friday and its been difficult. When do you start?

[MicaNicole 25]

@KTB1128Wow,I also quit smoking 3 months ago,that I must say was harder than this liquid diet BUT it feels amazing to know I quit and now I'm better because of it ... well my liquid diet consist of this Protein mix "UNJURY", its not too bad I chose the chicken broth flavor for lunch and dinner and the vanilla mix for Breakfast, also can eat oatmeal, sugar free pudding or Jello and raw vegetables :/ not too bad lol its a mind of matter thing , YOU CAN DO IT,just pray and remember your doing it to help towards a successful surgery
