December 2018 Sleevers!

[byeninja 4]

Posted a while back when I was originally scheduled for surgery in November. However,due to some thyroid issues I had to push it back to December. I've still been on the forum and I'm super happy for all the people who have been sleeved and for those to come! Im posting tonight because my surgery is tomorrow 😳 And I guess I'm feeling a little antsy. It's like I keep on tottering back and forth between "wow you're actually doing this" to "yay you're actually doing this." I'm really proud of how I stuck to the liquid diet for the 2 weeks, I honestly didn't think I had the discipline. Anyway, I'm super appreciative of this forum and I'm def ready to become a healthier me, so here goes!!

So I’ve moved on to smooth consistency food today. It’s amazing how quickly I fill up. The best thing I ate today was 1/4 cup of mashed potato with a scoop of GENEPRO Protein (30 grams) and a tablespoon of salsa.

Yikes I thought the shakes were super sweet before surgery wonder how they’ll taste in a couple days

How’s everyone doing? I’m 4 days post op and starting to come around! Today i got out a bit, so that was good. Struggling with my Protein and liquids!! Nothing tastes great. But I’m feeling a little better each day! No more nausea or dry heaving! Ready to get back to normal though— or my new normal!

Surgery was at 730 this morning! I've slept most of the day. Had some nausea but nothing the meds wouldn't take care of. Been sipping Water and eating ice chips. Pain meds have kept pain under control. Gas pain has been the worse out of the three, but walking and moving around does wonders! Honestly feeling really good and happy! Hope this eases some minds of those who may be nervous! We got this!!
