Just need a lot of help and motivation....I am one week POST OPT TODAY....Still very tired, stomach cramps at food but still nibbling on protein hoping for energy. I think my mindset is still not right going from a band to a sleeve but however I have to be successful....Is it ok to start exercising???

I was banded on the 12th and the Hunger is real....Converted to full liquids yesterday and tried pureed Soup and Protein shake and only could do a few sips of both. Today I actually ate a few bites of strawberries and laughing cow cheese.....My tummy ached a little PRETTY much with anything (cramping feeling)but I feel better... SCARED I am going to mess this up but being prayerful and hoping I can do my very best, Best wishes everyone

Awesome job !!! Encouragement for me ...Sleeved 05/12/14

Sleeved monday the 12th...Nasaeu has me in bad shape..I have been sipping on one bottle if water all day...No food in my future

Thank you but I know if many had will power we wouldn't be on a pre opt diet,,,,I'm certain I will be fine ...Keep u guys posted

Wondering if any Dr.Uchal patients out there....Wondering your thoughts and how your process went?

Hi everyone, I AM EXPECTED TO GET SLEEVED ON MONDAY THE 12TH.....I haven't followed the low fat diet my doctor mentioned to the T. I seen him on the 1st he didn't mention anything nor at my pre opt it was no big deal..... Only the liquid the day before....Wondering if I should be overly concerned about it??? However excited to have band removed and become sleeved!!!

Hey we will be ok...I been banded before and advised the same and survived it...I KNOW its all with reason but don't think its as necessary as people think...My doctor didn't mention it and when I did preopt on Tuesday they didn't either....Prayer for all!!

Mine is Monday the 12th and I have failed big time on preopt but my doctor didnt make a deal about...Guess ill do no liquids on Sunday

Iu4hi

Im surprised of the liquid diets...My doctor said lowfat for 2 weeks one day of liquid..Stil havent done good

Surgery May 12th and no pre opt

Ladies, How long did it take you get back to normal? I was approved about a month ago but havent moved forward yet because i have trips etc planned. I am wondering is a couple of weeks or longer. Reading the forum makes me think differently. I didnt realize it would be such a major process of healing.. Also I am converting from a band to a sleeve.
