meagtheleo 4 Posted December 5, 2014 Well all went well 12/2! I am three days out and feeling great. Word to those coming up....ask for pain meds as soon as you can and walk to get the gas out. Its the worst. Pop a gas x strip immediately. Best wishes!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

meagtheleo 4 Posted December 6, 2014 I used Dr. Hollis. He is fantastic. I haven't hit my 64 oz liquids yet but I am close. I keep a tervis tumbler of crystal light in hand at all times and sip sip every ten minutes. For Breakfast I made my Protein Shake with 6 oz of Water and took 30 minutes to get it all down. Took my kids to lunch and had the broth from wonton Soup. I also drank a cup go hot tea this afternoon. Today I was out and about for about three hours and that wore me out. There is a few FB groups that are great. December Sleevers and soldiers of the gastric sleeve army. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Edavidson 84 Posted December 8, 2014 I am on day 11 pre-op diet, liquids only. I went to the hospital today for my pre-op, my surgery is on the 10th one day and one wake-up. My question is, has anyone gained weight on the liquid? I gained six lbs. and i have not cheated once. the only thing that i can think of is the broth, it is sooooo full of sodium. I was so depressed i almost call off my surgery. But, it has taken me 4 months to get here. I just don't understand. My heart was broken. Someone please tell me this is going to work for me. Am i going to gain weight on this sleeve surgery? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
