I know there is a june post op page but it's from 2013 and very hard to go through all of those messages looking for support from people just going through the surgery although we love the veterans and all their wisdom sometimes you just want to talk to your graduating class about how things are going!!! congrats class of 2014 ha ha let's stay in touch here and post questions and answers and support each other im also considering making a Facebook page so let me know if that would be something you would enjoy for the group. this page is for sleevers and bypassers and banders of june 2014

I never thought I would get here. My date is June 17 for Sleeve surgery. I read the May thread faithfully and was sooooo jealous! Now it is our turn to take this awesome step into a new chapter of our lives. So helpful to know there are others out there to discuss our feelings as we go through the recovery steps, including sharing our successes and insecurities along the way. I will be here reading this thread when it changes to June, 2015!!!!! I hope all those scheduled for June surgeries stay with me!

Okie all you Junies.... Anyone who wants to add me as a friend, please feel free. Also, if you want to keep in touch via text or Facebook, send me a private message. I have seen the other post-op forums go quiet pretty quickly. If we want to stay in touch, to share success, share losses, share troubles and anything else...

Not to sound stupid here, but how do you add a friend on this site. I want to keep in touch with my June friends. We will have the same timing of surgery, post op, etc. it would be great to follow each other's progress together.

Hover your pointer over the persons name under their profile pic. a box should pop up that says their info. on the bottom near the left is an icon that looks like a head and shoulder with a little plus sign. click on it. That is the 'add as friend' button.

i agree on the facebook page. it's easier to keep in touch there. it's easier than weeding through the threads here. but i still love it here for other threads and support :)

      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.
