[Dorian 683]

I haven't eaten anything yet. Just not hungry. I'm passing so much Fluid in my drains right now' date=' and barely passed any urine this morning. That was the first time passing since the morning of surgery. About to puree eggs and ham how lovely.but i feel fine still. Well see how Breakfast goes.

Bet it feels weird to not be hungry. Glad you are feeling fine, and hope the peeing picks up for you!

Forget the eggs they are so bland. But the ham is tasting pretty good. I'm shocked.

So' date=' did any one elses surgeon try to get them to change from RNY to the sleeve? My doctor seemed quite persistent, though said the choice was mine, and it didn't seem to bother him that I choose the RNY. He kept going on about doing a fabulous single incesion through the belly button, but seriously, I have a road-map on my stomach from 3 pregnancies, so regardless of how much weight I lose, I will never be showing my bare stomach in public. I am wondering if maybe he just wanted more practice doing the single incesion, lol.[/quote']

My surgeon did the same thing at my first appt. kept telling me I could do just fine with a sleeve instead of RNY. I listened to him but felt the RNY was still the best option. When I went for my preop appt last week I schedule surgery, he didn't seem bothered at all with what I chose. I do think you're right that they just want more practice with the sleeve. The coordinator of my program said it's like the "new" thing they're trying to get people to do. For me, it just didn't have enough proven benefits. Now surgery is Tuesday!!! Can't wait! Good luck to you!

I think they are looking for more statistics for the sleeve, so the more they do the more they know. I already had the band so my doctor said I may not be successful with the sleeve since it is also just a restrictive procedure. My prior band surgeon and my new surgeon suggested the rny. So rny it was.

I tried to stop my pain meds yesterday and was a bit uncomfortable. I ended up taking them last night because I couldn't sleep. I was groggy this morning, but feel much better now. I am going to try to help my friend find a dress at the mall today. It will be my first time wearing real clothes since the surgery. Hope it goes well. Going to try not to take pain meds today again.

I am doing the Premier Protein as well. It tastes the closest to chocolate milk and not a chalky aftertaste or thick. Plus, it has 30 grams of Protein for each shake which is great. I have had no issues with it, and I got it from Sam's club.
