Getting sleeved tomorrow



Recommended Posts

Ok soooo....my big day is tomorrow. I've been on a week liquid diet and taking my supplements BUT....I cheated. Drinking 5 shakes a day wasn't the hardest part. The shakes kept my head from hurting and me feeling faint from not eating. One thing I learned was I won't die from not stuffing my face. I had 1 taco on day 3 & 2 chicken wraps on day 5. Has anyone been denied surgery for not following the liquid diet?

Hey sleevedvegan I had surgery on Dec. 11 and a couple of days before my surgery we were evacuated due to the fires so I honestly couldn't keep up with the pre op diet I didn't eat to bad but I did eat. I was honest with my Dr and he assured me I would be fine. I let them know on Fri and had my surgery Mon I started back on my diet and was really strict on the day before my surgery. Thank God everything came out ok and I did fine. That was just my experience but it could be different for everyone.

Trust me I felt the same but it does not sound like you made terrible food choices. Like you said I have also read about some people not having to diet at all only the day before. I know you really want this and I think you will be fine just stick with it today.

You sound like me! Lol! I’m on day 5 of my liquid diet. Down 10 lbs. I have cheated a couple of times. I ate some almonds one day. Swapped two shakes for some Tomato Soup. Had a cucumber and some cheese. I start clear liquid tomorrow for my sleeve on Dec. 28, so please pray for me! Good luck to you, and Merry Christmas!

Thanks love. Today I'm doing strictly liquids and a detox bath. Hopefully that will help. I've been reading where people haven't had to do a diet at all. I know everybody is different though. I felt so bad for giving in because I really do want this.

I only had to do 2 days before so maybe it will be okay.. I think they know life happens and we do the best we can.. good luck!!

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
