Day 2 post op has gone well for me. Only small issue I'm having is my right thigh feels a little numb. I can walk fine just feels odd. Read it can be from the straps on the table. Doctor said to keep an eye on it.

Other than that things are great. Trying to get a couple Protein Shakes down each day. Overall I really am not hungry so I just sip away. Weighed myself and have lost 24lbs since pre op diet started April 23 =D

Had my surgery the 7th. Feeling good overall. Still sore especially at the port incision. Been up and walking every couple of hours so no gas pain =D

Water, some Protein Shakes, and sf Popsicles are my saving grace right now. Not really hungry but making myself drink something to stay hydrated. Lost 15lbs during the pre op diet and a few more today. I'm ready to be healed up and move forward in this new chapter of my life.

Good luck to those in recovery and those who are still waiting. It will be here and over before you know it. I was terrified to go under but it really was nothing. First procedure I have ever had and not really anything scary about it.

Hi - I'm sorry to hear you can't have coffee? They told me I could have coffee as long as it was black or with a tiny bit of skim milk (which is how I usually have it anyway). Not to sway you from your dr's orders' date=' of course![/quote']

Not a big coffee drinker in general. I was all about the sodas before I started this journey. I'm fine now! Day 5 of the preop diet is finished and I'm feeling great.

Started my 2 week pre op diet yesterday. I find myself staying full, but at the same time wanting to eat everything in sight haha!

Made it through day 2 today with no issues. Just a caffeine headache. Can't wait for surgery day!!!!!

Keep it up everyone! Don't let doubt or cravings sway you from the goal

May 7th here. It's a day before my 25th birthday. I want to start my next year off with a new me =D

Hey all first post here....

Had my consultation April 4th, pre-op diet starts April 23rd and surgery on May 7th! Excited and ready to get things going.
