mmgraham102602 10 Posted July 18, 2013 Thank you! I was incredibly tired the first two days home. My only "issue" was taking too big of a drink and it being uncomfortable for a few seconds. But now I don't have that. 1 nmck reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

IndieGirl 42 Posted July 18, 2013 Who all is on their liquid diet? I started mine Monday' date=' I could have waited till today to start it, but my son is gone to camp till tomorrow, so I thought it would be easier to start it when he wasnt home and I wasnt having to cook for him. It has worked out great. I was told if you can make it thru day3 or 4, you were good. So far, so good! I can only have Clear Liquids, broth, tea or coffee with sugar free sweetener, SF popsicles, SF Jello and 1-3 Protein Drinks (EAS AdvantEDGE brand only). Then on the day before, I can only have clear liquids and have to do a colon cleanse.. Fun day that will be....lol[/quote'] I'm on my 10th day and its still difficult but I'm down 10lbs so that's a good thing. I get sleeved on Monday. Can't wait to get it over with!

flyme_places 99 Posted July 18, 2013 Getting closer. I go in for my pre op with the drug nurse today, then surgery tomorrow. It's kinda weird I don't feel excited or nervous. I'm in a nice state of calmness right now. 2 qnz234 and nmck reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Patti K 98 Posted July 18, 2013 Hello everyone im new on here my surgery date is set for july 22 . Pretty nervous and excited at the same time. Anyone having problems with family support? My mom is not so happy bout me having surgery my sister also . The only real support i have is my husband would love to hear from anyone thanks for your time Corina, I am the opposite...my mom and sis are all for it but my bf (who suffers from severe anxiety) doesnt want me to and he is always theeatening that he is going to call the hospital and tell them I am not following their rules or that I am taking steroids so they will stop the surgery. Lol I just laugh him off and say GLAD there ate HIPPA laws! The hospital cannot even tell you I am a patient there! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
flyme_places 99 Posted July 18, 2013 What's a "drug"_nurse? I meant anesthesiologist. Drug nurse sounded much better :-) 3 Nursebarbie, moonlitestarbrite and nmck reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
