LeighAnneF 98 Posted February 15, 2014 I hate to here your tired, but am glad to here it's not just me... Couldn't figure out why I am so tired all of a sudden.

SuperFab 689 Posted February 15, 2014 April, the mat couple days were the toughest for me with exhaustion. I felt like The Walking Dead. (See what I did there?!). It was really tough. But you're almost through it! Thanks Jen. I know. I just didn't want to place myself in a position to be overcome with the food around me. But I'll be ok. It does totally suck balls though Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jen, so glad to here your doing well I actually got a full 4 hrs strait with it on last night, which is rare. Mine has a memory card instead of a modem and they check it every 90 days. I'm hoping to get some rest and wake up refreshed tomorrow Bc I've got a whole apartment to pack up. Moving around the first of March. We can do it, it just isn't easy.

cwang2680 79 Posted February 15, 2014 Well guys I put the diet aside to eat out with my family tonight for Valentines. I have to admit it was so yummy! Tomorrow is a new day back on track & I'm gonna try to get a walk in to make up for today. Glad all of you are doing well. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sarahjane79 397 Posted February 15, 2014 I'm glad you enjoyed it, but it's a little disconcerting that you just "set aside" the diet you NEED to follow so easily. *I'm not trying to be a dick here, but..... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SuperFab 689 Posted February 15, 2014 Well guys I put the diet aside to eat out with my family tonight for Valentines. I have to admit it was so yummy! Tomorrow is a new day back on track & I'm gonna try to get a walk in to make up for today. Glad all of you are doing well. I hope everything goes well. It's a very difficult diet. My son brought home a little Caesars pizza and crazy bread. But I didn't partake Bc I'm needing to know I have control over my eating habits. Me. In control. Sweety, please, please, please get back on track tomorrow. We are here for you and I know it's hard but this is go time. We are in the end zone here. 1 Sarahjane79 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sarahjane79 397 Posted February 15, 2014 A major part of this process is this diet. I hope you can get back on track tomorrow and not have any more set backs. This isn't a diet for only shrinking the liver, but also as a test of what's to come. <3 you can do this. But only if you have the strength to be stronger than the food 2 Jencovi and SuperFab reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Now you're gonna have to let us know how things go once you get home, sista I like the new name Chick! I'm home. I feel pretty good. I keep forgetting this is the third time these incisions have been used so I am more sore than I expected. But I will keep this pain to not have the trapped gas pain. I had that with all my previous surgeries and was so concerned I would have to deal with that. I know the soreness will be gone in a few days. I have not experienced hunger yet. I keep thinking I am but then I realize its just my stomach moving or gurgling. So far so good! 2 SuperFab and Sarahjane79 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I think I was more nervous than anyone. I'm a freak like that. Haha. Glad to know I have friends! I knew People would wonder where I was. But I was just so dang out of it! That anesthesia is no joke. I basically slept 22 hours straight. This morning I thought "I will never get out of bed again!" And tonight I'm wandering around my house no problem. My sweet husband just said it's good to see me up on my own. I'm sure his arms are just about dead from me needing his help every time I stood. I'm so glad to be out of surgery and back home. I'm planning on a walk with hubs and baby tomorrow. We are having gorgeous weather and I know the activity is good for healing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tiajsuccess 13 Posted February 15, 2014 Hey everyone, I have been gone for a while. I was sleeved on the 10th. I had my prayers, lip balm, and gas x ready. Lol. All I can remember was the recovery room. My blood pressure did spike a little. My surgeon said my liver was good and it was a nice sleeve. I live in GA, and left the hospital the next morning. We were snowed in and all I had was broth and popsicles. Lol. Today, I feel great. My husband took me shopping because I can't eat anything. Walking helped soooooo much. I was miserable before. I was able to walk today, and I feel like a million bucks. Let me be honest. Day 2 I cried alone due to regret. I finally shared it with my husband today. I asked myself, y couldn't I do this myself. I asked , what had I done to myself. I prayed for understanding. Today, my rainbow after the storm has come. This post is very long, I felt it would be selfish to not share my truth. I have a wonderful support system, and my husband has been great. Oh. Fyi. I am 35 lbs down from my last weight in before pre opt. I wish you all luck. 2 Jencovi and SuperFab reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
