sacsa97 38 Posted June 29, 2017 Hi everyone, just here counting the days till July 12th, I had my pre op class last week, and I just go out of my pre op appt with my surgeon. I told him I'm open this weekend, but I guess I'll have to wait till the 12th! Lol the office actually gave me a spirometer to practice breathing and limit my chances of pneumonia, along with some wipes. He told me I need to be on an all liquid diet 24hrs before the surgery and no liquids after midnight. He also ordered a pregnancy test, 5 days before the surgery. Good luck to everyone!! 2 DedicatedLady and Shereseed reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

me_upgraded 6 Posted June 30, 2017 This thread is a great idea! How would you guys feel about a private July surgery Facebook group? It might make keeping track of things easier Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sacsa97 38 Posted June 30, 2017 This thread is a great idea! How would you guys feel about a private July surgery Facebook group? It might make keeping track of things easier Hi, there's a private fb group already, but anyone can actually look for it and see the actual members! I just clicked on it and was able to see the names and pics and the ppl that have joined. I'm a "secret sleeved" so I dnt necessarily feel comfortable with joining if, since other ppl can't see the post, but they can see my name and pic of the look under the member section 1 Dee's Journey reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The group is set to private, but not secret. In a secret group you cannot see the members. 2 Dee's Journey and sacsa97 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Is that the main group for this? Or a July specific one? I ended up leaving that group as there were too many negative people! I'd be down for a secret group too 1 sacsa97 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Shereseed 24 Posted June 30, 2017 I'm a secret sleever too, so I have not joined the FB group. The group is set to private, but not secret. In a secret group you cannot see the members. I messaged the admin to see if it can be changed to secret. I'm a secret sleever too. I doubt anyone I know will be searching out sleeve groups, but it would be nice to have that extra assurance. 3 Redo2017, Dee's Journey and sacsa97 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

dreamingsmall 1,125 Posted June 30, 2017 I think I've cried more in the last 3 weeks (usually at romantic comedies) then I have in the last 3 years combined haha. I wasn't told to stop my BC, however I take get DepoProvera. Have you emailed to see why? Is it specifically because they are pills? Depo is fine. You can't stop that as its three monthly lol. I'm on it too. And they didn't say anything. But told me to not take my blood pressure tab the day of surgery.Sent from my Swift 2 using BariatricPal mobile app Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
