TrueLibraChick 2 Posted September 1, 2016 I can't believe I started this process December 2015. I went to my first seminar in Jan. and started seeing my surgeon in Feb. Finally after all the appointments I got a date in June for July 20 but had to reschedule for financial reasons I wanted to make sure our family will be ok. So here we are September losers bench coach put me in. I'm ready. Happy that I don't have an all clear diet two weeks before just two Meal Replacements and a small dinner. Then two days prior it's Clear liquids and shakes. Sent from my iPad using the BariatricPal App Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

inhiskingdom 39 Posted September 4, 2016 My surgery is 9/13 ????! ! I am wondering why some people are on a liquid diet and my doctor had not mentioned it. I see him on 9/7 so maybe he will have me start after that. I did not realize that so many doctors follow different guidelines when it comes to gastric surgery. Good luck to everyone!

tobskinny 7 Posted September 27, 2016 I was sleeved on 21st I had a severe reaction to anesthesia. This is not common so no one else should really worry. I did walk some the first night but I kept getting worse & dizzy Dry heaves for 30 hours but dos the upper GI test & no leaks - great surgeon! By day 5 I felt so much better & no nausea at all. I think I'm getting all my Protein at this point. Everyone's path is different & as sick as I was I wouldn't go back. This is going to be a great! I'm prepared to stay on track but honestly do look forward to having oatmeal in a few weeks Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Getting my fluids and Protein in without problem and preparing for the next phase-purée. Hope everyone is doing great.
