Floey84 31 Posted August 12, 2015 I'm not getting sleeved anymore I had to change things around because lately I've been having a little acid reflux and the doc said the leave would make it worse. I'm nervous cuz I really wanted the sleeve and my surgery is right around the corner August 18th I have to get the bypass :/ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
volgirl 10 Posted August 12, 2015 Ok y'all. I'm about to cry. I have standard Wednesday night dinner plans with friends. They don't know what my surgery next week is. We discussed salmon, veggies, no carbs this week and berries for dessert. Instead we have potato/cauliflower pancakes and granita for dessert. I haven't eaten much today knowing to save most of my calories. I wish I wasn't so hungry! I guess I'm going to have to tell them sooner rather than later....

sshellssea 12 Posted August 13, 2015 Ok day 3 update! Gas has significantly gone done. Incision points are still extremely sore but all together not that bad. Should have been released today but I had an erratic heartbeat last night so I have to stay overnight. Keep faith it's not that bad. The liquid diet leading up to operation is great makes you crave less when you're sipping tiny amounts of fluids out of medicine cups. Haha good luck everyone!

jfzimmerman 50 Posted August 13, 2015 1 week post-op and feeling really good. For those just a day or two out, it does get better. Hang in there! And I lost 12 lbs since surgery so I am very happy! Have to do full liquids for another week then move to puréed. Never thought I'd be excited about puréed food but I so am! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
