My surgery is on Monday and I've had a sore throat for the last 2 days. No bueno! I don't feel sick and haven't had a fever or any congestion so I'm pretty sure it's just my allergies combined with the gross air since California seems to be on fire these days. Hoping this gets better by Monday!

There was a lady who has a coffee shop who wanted to start a Charlotte support group. Does anyone know who she is?

I was sleeved on Monday 9/9, came home yesterday! On full liquids. Doing good at getting in fld but not the cream Soups or yogurt, only able to do one of the 2 tbsp. Drinking chocolate Shakeology with skim milk for my Protein Shake which one 8 oz shake comes to 25 grams of Protein. Immediately after surgery I had severe nausea but that subsided with meds about 4 hrs post op.. Had a little nausea today but took a Zofran. Pain has been very manageable which has really surprised me and so far I'm

Taking only 2 doses of pain meds a day. I walked around the house today and also to the end of my drive and back then unloaded and loaded the dishwasher and I was tired . I feel like I am doing well with a good recovery. One thing to mention is I gained 8 pounds since surgery being pumped with all the fluids, that was kind of hard to take but as of this morning had already lost 5 of that. My stats are below:

Please share how the rest of you are doing!

Highest wt-271

Wt before pre-op diet: 268.2

Surgery day: 257

4 days post op-259

      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.
