My surgery is finally here!!!! I'm having it February 12th. I started this process June 2019. It has been a hard road for me. It's pretty much consumed my life. I'm ready to start the work but the past 2 weeks I've been very anxious and stressed. My husband says he supports me 100% but the things he says are not supportive at all. I've heard the your family's support is important. Any advice on how to deal with this?

I'm having bypass. I'm all prepped and soooo ready. Not nervous just very excited to finally start the real work. My surgery is in the morning. Not sure of our time difference. I'm in North Carolina USA. I'll have almost 2 weeks in when you have yours. I will keep you posted 😄

Had my miniGBS yesterday morning. I wasn’t prepare for the level of nausea and pain. Also very dizzy, so I didn’t walk at all yesterday. Feeling more myself this morning. Mouth is insanely dry, but can only drink Water 2oz at a time, 15-20 minute apart.

I don’t want to scare anybody, just wants you to know that if you do get the same symptoms, they won’t last too long.

Hey! Glad you are doing ok. Did they give you anything for the nausea prior to the surgery?

Sounds rough!!! But it's nice to have a heads up. I hope the worst is behind you!

Hi all! I just had my sleeve done this past Wednesday, 2/12. I’m so grateful that I actually decided to go through with this! I came home Thursday and other then some nausea and a little bit of pain, I’m doing really well! Although trying to get 64 oz of the liquids down is definitely a challenge :) Two of my pre-op nurses had the sleeve and it was a very positive experience for them both. They were able to answer a lot of my questions, put my mind at ease prior to surgery. While in post-op, I was able to get up and start walking! My biggest concern right now is staying hydrated for the week. I wish all of you the best with your upcoming surgeries!!

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      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.
