I was sleeved Monday and today is Friday morning. I'm down 10 lbs from surgery and 50 since the 4th of July! Also, when I went to slowly roll out of bed just now the sharp pain never came! Its only a bit tender. Today's gonna be a good day! Now I just need to work on this dehydrated/malnourished feeling. Yesterday I got 55oz of liquid and 30g of Protein but I still feel slightly dehydrated.

I was sleeved on Monday and starting Tuesday night I have had them about 3-4 times a day. Every time i feel the need to fart I make sure its done in the restroom! You can't play games with the dreaded sharts!

Haha, I got thretened with the cath also if I didn't pee in an hr. I hoped right out of the bed and stood in the bathroom until I could force something out lol. The swallow sucked but it was super quick.

Update: I peed!...lol!

Hey! I was sleeved the 22nd. My advice is to set an alarm every 15 min to stay on top of your fluids and make sure to get out and walk! The Prilosec and gas x has helped a ton. I slept a ton the first 2 days and now on day 3 things are getting much better. Today I drove around and ran some errands. I have not taken pain meds since I got home

I had surgery 10/22 (Monday). I slept most of the morning then focused on walking about 20 min. By the end of my laps I was ready to sleep again. I was discharged Tuesday at noon and have been focusing on sleep/sip/walk. I have not taken any of the heavy pain meds and even the gas isn't bad

We will all do great today! I am scheduled for surgery at 8:30 so I'm hoping they are on time and I get as much recovery time as I can today because I don't want to stay 2 nights!

Tomorrow for me, too! Guzzling Water as we speak. We are almost there but can't help but be nervous. Once I get to the hospital I think I might chill out a little knowing this part of my journey is ending and when I wake up a new one begins. Best wishes to all the 10/22's!

I'm 26, 6'4" and being sleeved in 14 days (oct. 22)! I started at 380 in July and I'm 350ish now. Started my liquid diet yesterday and the next two weeks will be a major test of will!

100% agree! At 26 years old my lifestyle up until the last 3 months has been going out for almost all meals, spending $200 a week on bar tabs, and then going for fast food at 3 AM. Well, my buddies still want to do that and I don't. The last two weekends I have spent lounging by my pool without buddies. It sucks, I need to find new people to hangout with that enjoy more active things. But I also don't want to lose them as friends, but it is hard when a few of them are 24 and still in go hard party mode.

I have all my requirements done and approval in hand! My date is Oct. 22nd, I'm down 20 lbs from first visit and shooting for another 30 by surgery. My goal in the next 3 mo. Is adjusting my eating habits to that of a post-op (with more calls tho) I have been using post op recipes and trying to get used to no added carbs/sugar/salt and drinking regularly with no liquids 30min to either end of a meal. I used my 3 mo of insurance hoops to get in healthy habits and using the next 3 to get into VSG habits!

Margarita's and whiskey sours but the Doc probably would not agree with this liquid diet.
But seriously I drank about a gallon a day of crystal lite. Mix up the flavors so your taste buds don't get bored. And 2 Protein drinks a day. Then in the evenings I used powders?utm_source=BariatricPal&utm_medium=Affiliate&utm_campaign=CommentLink" target="_ad" data-id="1" >unjury chicken Soup as a treat. The headaches went away after a couple of days and the hunger will subside to a point the further along you get.
