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!

      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.
