5 months and 65 pounds gone... I have a long way to go but I'm already feeling so much better.

Sleeved on Wednesday and just made it home from the hospital. I'm not feeling as bad as I thought I would though!

Surgery at 9:00 am today! I'm so sick to my stomach I can't sleep though... just nerves though.

Supposed To Start Liquids Tuesday, I Want To Wait Until Wed.

I don't really see any harm in it, I would just try not to fall into the "Last Meal Syndrome" and eat like crazy on Monday and Tuesday. -

Not Enough Weight Loss! Scary
Ashbeaux replied to simplyQuel's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I've been told by many that it isn't always about the weight. Do you measure your self? You might just be stalling a little, having an increase in lean body mass and loss of body fat. -
Hi everybody, my surgery is scheduled for May 23rd., in Houston, TX by Dr. Yu. I was originally set for April 11th. but after I arrived and got prepped for surgery I found out I had a UTI that I had no symptoms of so I had to go home, take antibiotics, and reschedule. At the time I was devasted and felt like maybe it wasn't meant to happen, but now I'm ready to go again. I get the pleasure of doing the 2 week liquid pre-op diet all over again... YAY! The first 4-5 days were the worst but after that it was pretty easy. Good luck to everybody else and update!

I was very crushed when he showed me the lab report, and I just couldn't understand how it could prevent me from having surgery if I wasn't even aware of it. He said if it had came back a mild case he might do it but there were too many risks involved. I'm okay today though and thankful that he made that choice. No I won't have to resart the 2 week liquid diet, he told me I could eat just to try to make it as healthy as possible so I don't regain any weight and when I have a date set I can go liquid a few days before.

Well I got there and was all prepared for surgeryhad my IV and everything, then my urine analysis came back positive for a UTI. So Dr. Yu was to worried to do my surgery with me having an infection. So I'm taking antibiotics and I have to reschedule.

Oooh I had a headache too, I think I'm missing Dr. Pepper though. I'm supposed to drink 4-5 shakes a day and get atleast 80g of protein, my shakes (GNC Lean Shake 25) have 25g each so I've just been drinking 4. -
