I was August 4, too. My doc still has me on Clear Liquids only, no Protein Shakes even. I also still have a drain in until Thursday. I am very tired of clear liquids, and the drain. Not much energy at all. scale is down 7lbs since surgery date.

One week out from surgery and just started full liquids. Doing well so far. Surgery went very smoothly and I'm down 10lbs.

I hope everyone is feeling okay.

I had my Aug 4th as well. I get fevers at night. 99.5 - 100.8 was the highest. Does anyone experience this?

The next day after I came home from the hospital, I battled a temp like that... but it passed within a day or so. (I kept watch)

Hello everyone. I also was sleeved August 4th (@10:30am...to be specific...lol)

I am really excited about this new start and it is great to see how y'all are doing.

I am at 7 lbs lost post-op, still on full liquids, but days away from moving to puree (which I am counting down to)

I still cannot believe how good I feel.... but I am thankful. =)

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.
