I'm only day 2 post op and these gas pains are irritating! Dr said should be better by tomorrow boy I hope he's right!

I'm ok a little bit sore in the stomach region lol, sucks being on an IV because I have to get up to pee every half hour! Gotta unplug from the wall, roll over to get up and waddle over to the bathroom lol.

Officially sleeved can hardly wait to see what my future holds!

Surgery tomorrow! Should be done in a room by noon

I cheated with one scrambled egg and mashed potatoes with protein powder twice. Now that i'm almost there I've kinda lost my appetite!

Had my pre-op with my surgeon yesterday, averaging about a pound a day on the liquid diet. I am very ready for Monday... I have waited for something like this my whole life, now I know why it didn't happen until now, because now I worked really really hard for it.

Broke down had a scrambled egg tonight :/

the MAIN reason they told me about the 10 day pre-op diet was to shrink your liver so it doesn't be so bloated and get in the way of surgery, so in reality, I look at it as making it easier for the surgeon, and easier for myself afterwards because i'll be used to the liquids. (Frankly anything I can do to make the surgery more successful for him is a no brainer for me!)

too funny, I did the same thing, got the wonton soup broth, my favorite pho place is over half hour away so I made my own beef stock instead!

I'm on day four with an upset stomach, I.broke down and took an immodium. Luckily the headache has passed, stomach still growls though

I'm finishing day 2 with a screaming headache

Im only on day one of liquid diet, I wouldn't mind some suggestions, I had a premier protein chocolate shakes this morning, chicken broth at lunch and isopure zero carb this afternoon, I managed to make it until 3pm without my stomach growling... help?

Ok, day one liquid protein diet.... starting..... NOW!

Had my pre-op testing this morning, chest x-ray, urine & blood test, did a ekg last year so they used that one. I didn't realize that my doctors are the only one with the Center of Excellence from Sacramento CA to Portland OR, that's a very comforting thought, I was also informed that I will have a private room in a new addition to our hospital with a special bariatric trained staff, some of which have already had the procedure, another calming thought! After my appointments I stopped by the local 'Carb Essentials' and picked up a container of Unjury Chicken Soup Flavored Protein Powder, a customer standing in line was also a patient from my doctors office, said to mix that with fat free chicken broth and it was very tasty. I was excited for another protein option, especially since its not a sweet one!! I am a salty girl and I don't care who knows it! lol, getting close, 10 days and counting
