Hi everyone I have been on the pre op journey for 6+ months and finally got my sleeve done yesterday! It's now 3:45am and I'm laying in the hospital bed with major gas pains. I'm so excited though that it doesn't even matter too much. Anyone else recent??????

I was sleeved on the 24th of July. I walked and walked any chance I could. Made me feel better and pleased the hosp staff. lol Also helped with getting discharged. As of yesterday I am down 9 pounds in a week. Gas laundry will get better each day. It's totally worth it in the long run. Good luck!

I'm scheduled for the day after tomorrow, getting nervous about the actual surgery. Have been in a program for the last 6 months, have felt confident about my choice but suddenly feel cold feet coming on. Am I doing the right thing? Will this work for me?

I understand how you feel. I awaiting my surgery date the end of August or beginning of September and am already nervous that it is this close and actually going to happen. Seems like it is normal to question ourselves but is a life changing decision that most no one regrets.

      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.
