So nervous and now reading more My doctor didnt tell me to take any kind of cleanser

Did you all took anything enema? Or anything

No, no cleansers of any kind. Although my stomach was a wreck last night because of nerves, I think I cleansed ok :( I'm headed to the hospital soon, I have to be there by 0530 and I live about an hour away. Surgery is at 0730. Good luck to all!

I am sleeved! I went in his moning at 5 to check in. They started surgery around 7am. I got to my room around like 10:30a. I was sleeping (if you could call it that) until around 1:30p when I took my first walk. It is painful getting in and out of bed but it is to be expected. In fact I have not had anything unexpected so far. Minor gas pains today. Hoping they don't come tomorrow with a vengeance. So far so good :D. Oh and I lost 10 pounds on the preop which puts me at 50 pounds lost over the last year.

Good luck to those being sleeved tomorrow. May everything be smooth!

      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.
