Anyone else starting to get REALLY nervous? I'm suddenly all "what am I going to do when I don't have food to turn to?" It's being a hard day today.

Just home from the hospital. Surgery went well and now just need to focus on healing.

I'm getting the sleeve surgery on June 30. I'm so nervous! I start my liquid diet on June 16.

Surgery went well. More painful then I anticipated.

Surgery was a bit miserable the first day and night! I also had more pain than expected but after the first night it was sooooo much better and tolerable! I'm post op day 3 and have been shopping all day!!! You get better fast I feel great! I'm not hungry at all and I find my broth Jello and Popsicles easy to get down and i stay satisfied and hydrated! Walked over a mile today! No dehydration or headaches! I'm so happy

JUNE 15th!!!

[smiranda 55]

June 16 is almost here. I still can't believe I'm doing this. It doesn't feel real.

I know, right? I have been jumping insurance hoops & dealing with officious medical office personnel here in the US since March 2014. Finally throwing all caution to the wind and heading to TJ.

I can't believe it's here in less than a week!

We've got this!! ????????

Glad to hear you are healing well. I'm pretty sore but going to walk a little more today. Surgery went well but really sore now (1 1/2 days home) Trying to get the liquids in and start making shakes. Any tips for getting going?

I am right there with you @@smiranda! I am excited, nervous but most importantly ready to embrace life as a fit person for the first time in a long time! 4 days left including today!!

Stay on top of your pain meds. I've been taking tordol every 8 hours. It's a miracle drug! I literally sip Water all day every couple mins I take a sip of Water or Jello or broth. I was a big water drinker before I've always drank about a gallon a day anyway. This is harder though the small sips are difficult because I want to chug! I've also taken a couple lortabs at night cause I find I'm more sore at night and I sleep better. These were left over from kidney stones. But I'm 4 days out now. Everyday get so so much better! Walk as much as you can I could only do like 5-10 min on day 1 and 2 I've worked my way up to about 30 min now. It's super slow but it's moving. I figure every calorie I burn and the more I use my muscles the better! Good luck Hun. The fist 2 days are for sure the worst! It gets better everyday!

Monday is the beginning of the 2 week all liquid diet. I have been drinking one to two Meal Replacement drinks a day so that I can get mentally ready. Congrats to all that have gotten the surgery and good luck to those whose date is comming up.
