Any October 2016 Sleevers?

[SAL421 48]

Sal and southbound how do you feel? sleeping is a nightmare. People come in every 30 minutes. I have lots a gas. Loving the pain relief but the pain isn't that bad. #losersbench

Walk around a lot. Try to burp. It eases the pains. I was starving but I think it was actually a mental thing considering I still can even drink something till I get GI series. Feeling thinner already. There'll be extra room on the losers bench considering we won't be there long.

I start my pre-op diet the 30th. Meanwhile, I'm eating like a crazy lady until then. Trying to get it all in before I have to live on Water and spit for two weeks. Tell me I'm not alone in this

Oct 17th, 730am for me. I did the crazy lady eating for about a few weeks, including food funerals etc, until last Sunday night. I started the pre-op diet on Monday, and Im writing this on day 2. The carb withdrawal is pretty severe with lingering headaches, dizziness etc. Im feeling super emotional but hopeful at the same time. Its like food and me have been in an abusive relationship for years, because it has comforted me daily, yet makes me feel terrible at the same time. Can anyone else relate? I haven't had this issue all of my life, so its kind of strange to be talking about it like this. Also, this might be even crazier than the sight of me eating for about ten like I did over the weekend, but I feel like I just went through a bad breakup - Im feeling that emotional. Does that happen to other people? Im hoping that post-op Ill be looking back saying why the heck didn't I leave this lifestyle sooner?!

Doing great. My nurse just left from checking me out. She apparently stepped in /mdninwas in there. Still groggy/foggy. Looking forward ddto being home. Gas pains are going pretty good. Just settling in under my shoulder. Cat napping got me up after two hours of sleep. So far so good!!!

I keep thinking I'm hungry but I guess that is gas. She's given me an antireflux tablet and I'm about to sip Water 30ml per hour. Throat is killing. So dry.

Gotta walk around every 2hs (to help gas movement) and inhale on the whatever it's called. I'll get better rest when I'm discharged, hopefully in another 12 hrs.

I'm day 5 of pre-op diet, I lost 2kg (4.4pounds) but that was 3 days ago. I'm trying to remember is a marathon not a sprint. My 6 month old is weaning of demand breastfeeding so my body is also going through that change.

I have 4 weeks of pre-op diet ????

I went to my sister in law's dinner birthday last night. I don't mind self I wasn't allowed any cake so if course I got annoyed with myself and had two slices! I'm also not telling anyone, so I got into the mindset of having to eat "normal" so they don't notice which is a dangerous mindset. Today is a new day to work on my healthier lifestyle changes.

@@shoodle72 lol I'm exactly the same.

I can get a pre-made shake down here which is sometimes easier with 3 kids in the morning all demanding Breakfast right this minute!

Good luck everyone xx

I had gone to a friend's get together and I made the cake (do custom cakes as a hobby) it was a boob cake for our friend who is in Stage 4 of cancer.

Everyone brought everything to dine on and all of my faves but I unbelievably just drank my Water and my Boost Diabetic...not even a bite of anything. I just kept telling myself that if I don't follow liquid diet to a tee than maybe liver won't shrink enough and I would be turned down for surgery. Didn't want to chance that and day of my surgery (09/28) and was weighed, I was already down 20 lbs.

Hang in there and don't give a rat's ass as to what others may say. Leave negative persons behind.

Much luck

They took away my pump. Supposed to get liquid paracetamol. Sipping Water is bliss. I won't be discharged until tomorrow afternoon.

Praying for you! Good luck!

And I'm up at 5:45 am. Maybe that means I can sleep better in hospital. Does walking really help the gas pains? T-minus 7 1/2 hours to surgery. Continued good luck everyone!

[facebro29 272]

Yes it does catnose. About to take another walk now.

Walking, moving shoulders helps you burp and relieve gas pain. The morphine also helps everything else.
