I get sleeved on the 15th. 11th day of the liquid diet, first 3 days I had a horrible headache, after that pretty smooth sailing.

Good luck to everyone out there anxiously awaiting the big day!

12/16/15 is my surgery date. 3week pre-op diet is still going well, but wrapping up work items so my backup is all set is stressful. My husband and adult son have been very supportive. My pre-op call to cover questions and confirm surgery etc. I found out I can change into my pj's after surgery, (yes many other more important items covered, but this news just made me happy for some reason). Hopefully nausea will be controlled well enough.

I'm 12/15/15 also...I can't wait. I started this journey in August of 2015 when I finally made the decision after 2 years of considering it.

In August I weighed in at 502lbs. Currently I'm at 448 and ready to go.

Good luck to everyone!

Tuesday the 15th! 10 day liquid diet going fine - 12 lbs lost! BUT, having to give up my Celebrex for RA is killing me. Meeting with my regular Dr after surgery to try to find a patch or liquid substitute.

Soooo, how's everyone doing 3 days post op? My pain seems to be going away and I'm able to drink and eat okay. My sleeve definitely lets me know when I go too fast or have too much.

Things are going a lot better. Sleeved on 12/15. The day after surgery was sooooo painful. The gas pains made me want to cry and almost puke a couple times. I could hardly sleep and the whole keep moving thing that the nurses kept telling me did no help at all.

Now that I'm home, I feel a lot better. I found a good way to sleep so I'm comfortable. I am easily getting my fluids in and was able to drink some Protein too! I am excited to start pureed foods in a couple days.

You got this!!! Just stay focused on your fluids and rest. ????????????????

      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.
