Did I see there is a fb page for the March sleevers?

I heard there was one, but have not seen or been given a link to it. Would love to have support from people that are about in the same place I am in this journey.

I didn't realize just how nervous I was until I went to my pre-op appointment today. High blood pressure due to nerves and they didn't even do anything but talk to me. So many emotions right now, I can't even explain half of them! Hope everyone who has already had their march surgery is doing well. I've got 10 more days to go!

I'm doing great. Had my first BM last night. Finished a 33.8 Oz bottle of Water and two perimer shakes today. No hungry, no pains or cravings. No real head hungry. My incisions are healing nicely and gas x strips are god sent. How about you?

I'm hanging in there I've had some "hunger" today but I haven't been brave enough to try Protein shakes yet, but I think I will this evening. My doctor requires or suggests 96 oz of Water for every patient. Since I was doing that two months prior to surgery that's been easier, but not obtainable yet. It come really close today. Maybe I can make it!

I got sleeved on the 16th. I've had nothing but explosive diarrhea. . Is anyone doing Protein shakes yet? And if so, how is that going? Sick of living on the toilet!

I have liquid pouring out the other end... I took milk of magnesium two nights in a row, to get things going, so I expected my bowels to be very loose. My at home plan stated, that on day four, I was to add a 8 oz Protein shake spilt in two 4oz to my liquid diet. I got two premier Proteins down today. Those are 11 Oz a piece.

I got sleeved 17th, and explosive diarrhea too until last night. I had a jar of baby custard - it stayed in! And this morning tried chobani drinking yoghurt as its higher in Protein then the rest. That stayed in too! Maybe try some different fluids to see what works for you?

About to head to bed.... tomorrow is sleeve day. Doing Clear Liquids all day has not been difficult at all for me today. Though I did keep busy doing things most of the day.

See y'all on the flip side!

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
