lowe1961

I am so excited today is my day I have to be at the hospital at 6am. I want to wish all the people that are getting sleeved today good luck and my prayers are with you.

ok i sent a friend request mine is lowe1961

I just got the call from the hospital I have to get there at 6am tomorrow for my surgery.Im so excited....

I agree the best I have found it the splenda. My family does not know I put it in the tea that I make. I just use less of it then I would real sugar

FMLA was for my leave of absence form work. They have .hold my job for me... Family Leave act

Do they make a adult liquid tylenol ? All i can find is childrens.

I will have to try that . I opened up some chicken broth and it was awful.

when I had my FMLA papers filled out the Dr office just said I was having surgery. They said it was none of their business what kind of surgery i was having. Now when the Dr office filled out my disability forms they put down the sleeve surgery. My employer does not see my paper work for disability, it goes straight to the insurance company.

This is day 3 of 5 for me on this diet. I get to have s/f Jello, and clear broth and 4 Protein Shakes a day. I had headaches for the first 2 days. Today when i got up I drank my shake and I had to go lay back in bed for a few hours. Now I feel better. It's hard, just try to stay busy and sleep a lot is what i have been trying to do.

My doctor let me use skim milk for this clear liquid stage.. I cant wait till its over and I have my surgery July 11....

Im in Saint Louis my Dr is Matthew Ricks with My NewSelf.My surgery is July 11 at Des Peres Hospital.

I will be sleeved on July 11th, man this clear liquid diet is really much harder than I thought.

You may have an additional Protein Drink in the evening. to reduce the effects of low blood sugar, it is suggested you have 4 ox of 100% fruit juice or Gatorade mixed with 4 oz of Water mindmonring, afternoon and evening as a snack inbetween your protein supplements. You may have unlimited amounts of Water and other sugar-free liquies in between meals and Snacks. Drink at least 64 oz of Fluid daily to prevent dehydration.

I just got back from the Dr and he said I have a h herni and they will fix it when the do my sleeve on July 11th.

I was not sure if we could use honey in place of sugar?
