kristin_pasley 45 Posted September 17, 2017 I can't believe the day is finally here! I get sleeved tomorrow, September 18th, and I couldn't be more excited! I've lost a total of 25 pounds in the last 2 weeks during my pre-op diet for a grand total of 45 pounds. Anyone else getting sleeved tomorrow?SW: 386CW: 341GW: HEALTHY AND FEELING GOODHEIGHT: 6'Sent from my Pixel XL using BariatricPal mobile app 2 Jesusmyhelp and WaywardMama reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jai Q 17 Posted September 17, 2017 Congrats! An wishing you a successful an safe surgery. Mines is the 27th an im getting excited as well. What was your preop diet?

kristin_pasley 45 Posted September 17, 2017 Thank you so much! My pre-op diet was 2 weeks. The first week I could have 3 Protein Shakes and a meal for dinner consisting of a Protein and vegetable. Week 2 has been 5 protein shakes a day. I had to purchase Bariatric Advantage from my doctor's office, but it tasted like baby formula. Slim fast has 20g of protein shakes that are tolerable. Premier Protein is pretty great and their shakes are 30g. There's a website called Unjury, they have a chicken Soup flavored powder that is really good and 21g of protein. Their unflavored powder can go in any drink also with 21g of protein. If you mix them in your shaker bottle, they totally dissolve and it isn't a thick consistency. You almost can't taste the unflavored powder. I hope this helps! Good luck!Sent from my Pixel XL using BariatricPal mobile app 1 dforston reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

bettybooping 29 Posted September 17, 2017 Hi kristin....i just you d this app and I think I am glad I did, I too will have surgery tomorrow and I am concerned. All the things I am reading everyone did a 2 week pre-op diet, my doctor only had me do a 7 day one. Guess it's too late now since my surgery is scheduled for 8:45am..Sent from my SM-N920V using BariatricPal mobile app 1 kristin_pasley reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kevavold 7 Posted September 18, 2017 My sleeve date is Tuesday the 19th. I am super excited. I think I have nervous energy tonight. Laundry is done . I have my hospital bag packed. All my clear Proteins lined up ready to go. It's like "nesting" at the end of pregnancy. Its taken about 9 months of preparation, testing etc to get to this point! Let's do this!

kristin_pasley 45 Posted September 19, 2017 Thanks everyone!! Surgery was yesterday and it went really well. I'm not in much pain. I just got my first meal tray with broth and a New Whey Protein shot. If I tolerate it well then I'll get to go home in a few hours!!Sent from my Pixel XL using BariatricPal mobile app 4 SarahBoBera, Jesusmyhelp, jenngetsthin and 1 other reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
