October Sleevers - Who else

[LivLogic 13]

yes. I've been on a modified Optifast diet since last Thursday. I start a 2 wk optifast only diet on the 10th. I've lost 8 lbs since last Thursday. What about you?

Get it girl! I have been on a reduced calorie diet since the 30th, but won't be starting my Clear Liquids until a week before, or 10/17.

Get it girl! I have been on a reduced calorie diet since the 30th' date=' but won't be starting my clear liquids until a week before, or 10/17.[/quote'] I won't be on clear liquids at all, just Protein Shakes. Of course, I have to be NPO after midnight, but no surgery til 1:45pm

I find what works for me to keep my mind off of not actually eating is to keep busy. All the things I've procrastinated from doing are being checked off one by one.

So I just hung up with my surgeons scheduler..because I have to have a double surgery they are now looking to move me to another date other than 10/23. :-( maybe later...I just cannot even think about waiting one more day longer after all I've been through. The surgeon removing the cystic mass is the problem..but it has to come out it's causing too much pain and issues. *deep sigh

I'm so irritated. But I'm trusting God to handle this. My Bariatric surgeon is on my side she's not wanting to change it, and she says there's no way she's doing it 11/27 THE DAY BEFORE Thanksgiving like they wanted. The thing is there would be a skeletal staff there because if the holidays...No friggin way am I doing that.

Anywho, sorry I needed to vent...praying somehow this works out in my favor.

Update: I had my sleeve done thursday morning! Very hard at first lots of pain meds:) second say I got a fever and so much pain so here I am another night. So far everything is ok. I expected to feel very ful after fews sips of liquid but instaed I get pain and hiccups. Wondering if these things are normal?

Anyone else have this?

Anyone else have this?

I'm getting sharp pains today after sipping on liquids and I'm rubbing it down and then passing gas so I don't know not bothering me much. I just figure it my new stomach getting use to new activity...( Shrugs) It could be gas I'm about to go walking and see if it helps
