Atix: Hi, I was just wondering why they had to put you in SICU. Are you going to be o.k.? We are all

pulling for you and you will be up and running around before you know it. Keep all of us posted on

your recovery.

There are so many of you getting sleeved at the same time. I am so happy for all of you and my hope and prayer is that you have a speedy recovery and reach your goal quickly.

Hi I was sleeved in Saturday 25th April in London by Dr Mannur. Surgery went well was up and moving in the evening. Home now just alot of pain in my lower stomach not too sure what it is. Gas or pain from operation. Yesterday was a hard day re liquids going to see how I get on today. Need to drink more. Love to hear how all April sleeves are getting on.

I had a revision from sleeve to MGB the 23rd, I'm still pretty weak from lack of calories and I get a lot of headaches but other than that I feel good ! I even went back to work today.

      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.
