I did it! Got sleeved this morning. I feel pretty good. I really want ice chips. My mouth is so dry! I just noticed my lymph nodes are swollen, but I'm not freaking.

Over all, I'm pretty happy!

Got sleeves this morning! One minute they put an one gym mask over my mouth and the next minute I'm done! Yeah! Relatively low pain... Not as much as I thought. No gas pains until after my last wall, but it's not too bad either. Only glich is they won't give me broth or SF Popsicles, which they said we could have in the pre-op class. Only ice chips. Other than that, feeling great about my decision to do this! Hope you are all feeling well and recovering quickly!

PS - looks like I'm down 15 lbs from my 2 week pre-op diet! Yeah!

Official sleeve sisal. However I am stoned and high as a kit

Same here!! Pain has subsided a great deal with the help of the liquid roxi. I've managed to get in roughly 18 ounces of Fluid as well and several wallks. Wishing happy thoughts and speedy recoveries to all!

I may get to go home tomorrow. My morphine pump was giving me a headache so they were going to try an oral pain killer. Doc said it would be a liquid but when it arrived it was a pill and I was afraid to swallow it!

I've had apple juice and ice chips and walking and sleeping. How's everyone else doing?

I'm good so far. I can't take much off the lunch tray other than the Protein powders and Water. Everything is has made me nauseated. Pain has been tolerable for the most part. Shoulder hurt pretty bad yesterday but it's better today. I've walked 3 times today and hopefully they will let me out tomorrow.

I'm home and feel great, but I think I'm just happy to be home. It'll sink soon enough when I freak out about getting my liquids in. I downloaded an interval timer app and set it for 15 minute intervals to make sure I drink 2 ounces each time it rings. Lets see how long that lasts! Lol GREAT JOB EVERYONE!

Feeling awful! Still in hospital for at leased another day. Apparently he had to hand sew a part cuz the stapler was misfiring and that section is very narrow. Been regurgitating spit balls the whole night. I just want to be back home.. Regretting this so badly, I miss my kids like crazy.

      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.
