I just had my surgery last Thursday the 30th. My doctor keeps his sleeve patients in for 2 nights. The first night was spent in CCU as he likes them to have the extra care. The following morning, the swallow test was done. I was then transferred to the normal surgical floor for my last night where I was observed starting my liquid diet.
I personally was glad for the 2 nights in the hospital with the extra care!

Kinny mom u will be able to eat again. I haven't had much of a problem. I'm two months out and can eat veggies, chicken etc. I make healthier choices and eat protein first. I don't feel like I'm missing out on anything. I'm now averaging a loss of 4 lbs a week since being off liquids and I feel great! The first month is rough, hang in there.

'm almost three weeks out and combined with the six months pre-surgery, two week fast and 19 days post-op, I'm down 45 pounds. Hoot hoot!!!!!
My question to you all is how many of you have met the goal that you and your doctor set?
Thank you in advance!!

I've been here two hours and am prepped and ready to go. waitin for the surgeon and off I go!!!!

I started in January and went in every month to get weighed and talk to the PA. I had to write down what I ate and she helped me make better choices. After six months, my info went to our insurance company and I heard back (yes) in two days!!! Got scheduled, etc. and my surgery is Tuesday!! So excited, scared and lots of other emotions. With the 6 months, I dropped 15# and with the protein fast, I'm down another 15.
