Just got sleeved yesterday!!! Should be discharged tomorrow morning. Good luck everyone!

Me too! though I'm here until Sunday. The mentioned I shoild try drinking Water today (I had my leak test) and that they'd try me on some thin yogurt drink thing tonight, but no drink. Given that I've been zipping water and it still kind of hurts I'm glad though.

I'm home now! They started me on this 15g Protein Shake - it was fruity and actually good. Plus broth, Jello and Popsicles. I had to focus on the shakes yesterday and got two in. Just drank one on the 1.5 drive from San Francisco to Sacramento. Taking a break and will just sip water. This afternoon ill try to drink a Premier Protein shake. It has 30g of Protein in it so if I can't get anymore after that im OK.

Hope they get you your yogurt drink soon. Does it hurt when water goes down or your whole stomach?

I just had mine...it is normal to have anxiety. Surgery was easy...45 min laproscopic. The hard part is the routine after but it is doable.

Congrats!!

Pretty Cali!

I just got home, too! We had ours on the same date.

I felt every bit of liquid go down my stomach, and then also at times into my intestines, with all the air. Feels weird!

I stayed very tired on the pre op diet. I also had muscle twitches and spasms and I found Powerade ZERO to be very helpful with all the Water I drank, too.

Hi...I am scheduled for February 15th. I'm nervous because I keep hearing about the 2 week liver cleanse and my surgeon has not given me any info. I see him on February 5th. I just don't want the surgery to get pushed back!!!

      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.
