No pre-op Surgery 8/10/12 @ 242lbs. Today 8/21/12 @ 218.5 :-)

I have my 2wk post op appt on friday. As of earlier this morning it seems that its getting lighter like its going away. *fingers crossed*

The exact opposite has happened to me. I was sleeved on August10th and I have been bleeding since. Not a regular period with cramps and all but just bleeding. The weird thing is that my cycle came on about a week before surgery. I have pcos and havent seen a regular period in years. Maybe its just resetting itself....idk....anyone else???

I know just how you feel. I was sleeved on 8/10 and I'm not having any problems getting in all of my liquids and I'M SOOO HUNGRY!! The dr. put me on omeprazole that I have been taking and I didn't think that I had a problem with reflux but I guess its a precaution. It's not "head hunger" its full on hunger. This is just my first week and I have another week to go before my post op appt. I hope this subsides when I start mushies otherwise I am worried about my progress.

Thanks everyone. I have muscle milk too. I just havent started on it yet. My bff brought me some coconut soup (like broth) for dinner that im going to try tomorow. NO MORE ENSURE!!!! The isopure tastes fine with me. I also have a new found love for popsicles.

I cant have jello this soon like others can

Ensure was on my list. I got it on my meal tray in the hospital too. I dont think i will be trying it anymore

I was sleeved on 8/10 and so far so good until today. I was abled to drink more so i decided to aim for the 64 oz. Ive been drinking the Isopure Alpine punch for protein, plain room temp water, sf popcicles, diluted juice. Well today i decided to drink the ensure that i got from the hospital (6oz). Im not sure if that gave me diarrhea or just the increase in liquids. Either way i'm terrified of getting dehydrated. Any suggestions?

I was sleeved yesterday and was just discharged today. I finally got some ensure and juice around 1. I tolerated it well with no nausea so they let me go home

Hi Belinda! Im scheduled on August 10th for surgery! Good luck!

You're right. I may just extend it to 2 weeks
