Any February Sleevers?



Recommended Posts

Hi! I’m having my surgery at the end of the month and I’m freaking out a bit. I know why I want to do it but I’m worried about the post op.
It’s just a lot to happen to the inside of you!

I have actually had a gastric band when I was too young and it didn’t work so now the sleeve is my best option.

I find that being positive about the whole thing really really makes a difference. But sometimes this whole thing makes it hard to sleep.

Any advice with feeling a bit anxious?

Thanks!! [emoji4]




Just remember that by day three you will be sleeping better. I’m one week post op today and feeling great. First two days/nights sucked but you will wake up 3rd or 4th day and realize you feel a lot less sore and it feels awesome! Went well Extra Strength Tylenol and didn’t take Oxy. Good luck.

I don't have a pre-surgery diet! Just nothing after midnight the night before and had to stop taking all my Vitamins.

This morning I had my pre-admission testing.

Not long after I got to my desk, the hospital billing office called and let me know that insurance had approved me. (the I called the insurance company and confirmed it.)

Holy crap. This is *actually happening* - one week from tomorrow (2/18).

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
