Just found out that they had a cancellation for the 20, was expecting a September date so I am BEYOND thrilled!!!!! It's less than two weeks away and I'm literally dancing around the house. Guess its time to start cleaning my closet that I've been avoiding for the last two years ????

That's my day too! I'm excited but also scared. And of all things, I'm still worrying that I should do RNY instead of the sleeve.

I'm already starting to think of the 20th as my new "rebirth day"! Why are you unsure/doubting your choice of the sleeve? If you don't mind me asking ????

Hello everyone! I had my sleeve surgery on August 20th as well. How are you all doing? How is the liquid diet going? I am trying to find "other flavors" because I am getting tired of the same, but I am doing what I have to do. Following the instructions faithfully.

Hoping everyone is doing well! :)

I'm doing really well. I feel great but I do want something to chew. Blended Soups are ok, but I can't wait to get to soft foods. How long are you on liquids for?

What is RNY?

I was sleeved on 8/23 and I don't feel that I am losing enough. I still eat a lot, just like the surgery never happened.

      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.
