Oh, and unless there is a reason you shouldn't, consider a flu shot (personal preference, but advised)

I would suggest for pre op folks, daily Vitamin C and purell in your pocket. Avoid sick infectious people, crowded gatherings. But above all wash or purell your hands as much as possible!

So glad that you are on the other side, losers bench. Also happy you are feeling well. Good reports like this make me less nervousnaout my upcoming sleeve. Keep us updated. Congratulations!!

Octosleevers!!!!! I love it, I love the name. I am proud to be an Octosleever!

Hi, my name is Valerie, and I am a DP addict. I had a 6 pack + a day DP addiction, started cutting down 3 weeks ago. DP free for one week. Love Vitamin Water zero

Had my pre op today. Found out the following: Doc gave me go and eat a good meal tonite for tomorrow you shall die...t, LOL 10 days of optifast 5 a day. And clears the last two days He uses a 40 bougie stables up tight All his pt have good weight loss and little of the intolerances. He uses the triple row stapler and does not over sew or seal the line (feels it causes more complications than not doing it I feel much better

Woohoo Deb!!! Very happy for you. We are sleeve sisters. I had a hard time figuring and still figuring out tickers. Cant be done on the mobile app. But if you pull down on your screen name one of the. Hoices is "your tickers". You can set them up there! See you on the other side!!

Had to take a 30 question test before my visit. Thanks to this site, I am pretty sure I aced it!!

I bought some cream Soups from WonderSlim for my full liquid stage, i liked them dureing a previous diet. Even if I dont like them post op, i'll save them for later down the road.

Funny how different the diets are from surgeon to surgeon. i am to be on clear liquids for 7 days, with only 20 g of Protein intake per day required (1/2 bottle of isopure)

Pre-op visit today, testing etc. starting pre-op diet today. 5 optifast shakes a day...that's it. 13 days to surgery!!!

Unless you are all alone and have no one to go to the store for you, (just in case) i don't see needing to buy one or two days of post op stuff at a time(one bottle of Isopure, or some sort of Protein shakes). I say that but understand there are folks who live super rural and this is not always feesable. A lot of these companies on line have free shipping and ship super fast too.

Roflol!

Flu shots are available and a good idea.i think I will get one this week. My daughter' date=' who is tiny for her age was hospitalized when she was 4 for a week. She caught the flu and became so ill and was re-hospitalized. .

i am a an old lady! Haha

My weight has caused plantar faciitis' date=' causing severe heel and arch pain when i walk. I hobble in flats, i would kill myself in heels!

Low carb, limit to 20-40 carbs daily, lots of veggies and lean meats. 30-60 min exercise daily. you can do this!
