I agree 10/12 sleeve here no problems. It is challenging with the Water intake but I was never a fan of h2o. Nonetheless,vitamin water and Sobe has been the best for me. Crystal light seems to now have a more noticeable aftertaste to me. I'm cleared for soft foods and am enjoying my sleeve!
I totally agree with you I was sleeved on 10/17 and I feel great I have no pain at all just trying to get all the liquids and Protein in is hard. I'm glad to know its not just me who feels good. I'm praying for everyone who are having complications that everything gets better for them.

Ok abdominal pains feels like I worked out to hard kinda soreness Plus the gas has kicked in. The nurse just gave me my first cup of ice. I will take it slow though. I'm able to get up on my own with no assistance to pee(maybe tmi) but I think it's the small things pre opers may want. Grateful for the advice given here about splinting with additional pillow. So far so good....

Done Did it Too! Got to my room after surgery around 5 pm. Pain is manageable with meds. I've only had one wave of nausea and that was after my walk and trip to the bathroom. Very hungry! I'm still NPO until morning. Oh what I would give for a Popsicle Well getting drowsy now so I will touch bases tomorrow.

Well I up, not that I could sleep anyway last nite. Ready to go get this done!! Nervous and excited all at the same time. Thanks to all of you for the postings you have made. They have helped make this leg of my journey so informative. I can truthfully say it is because of ALL of you that I am confident in what lies ahead of me today. So to my fellow Oct 12 sleevers May God Be With Us! To everyone else have a wonderful and blessed day. Signing off until I get to the losers bench. Lets Ger 'er Done!

Yes it is!!!
Susan,
I was in your town(Mooresville,near Brawley School Rd) last nite at an amazing birthday party. They had wonderful finger foods.....including some sort of soup/tomato paste in shot classes for shrimp skewers! Did without the shrimp and had a couple of glasses of the soup/paste which was delish. Furthermore for the first time in years I said NO to the cake.

Good luck to everyone! I am 6 days away from my new self! My bags are packed,hubby says I'm acting like were having a baby. I'm just super anxious to get back to a before baby weight,seeing as that baby we did have is 22 years old!!

TOM and liquid diet, saying I'm edgy is an understatement. Not to mention how much I wanted something from McDonalds and a snicker bar. But my beef broth and sugar free hot chocolat will have to do!!

Two week liquid starts THIS FRIDAY! I will start my own high Protein, low fat,low carb program from today until then. Not nervous but oh so anxious ready for the new me. Haven't had my pre op appointment yet. Can anyone tell me what to expect? One is with anesthesiologist the other on Oct 3 with surgeon.

My surgery date is Oct 12. I am trying to adjust now to a higher Protein lower carb diet for the next two weeks. I start my liquid diet Sept 28. Trying out different liquids and Soups so I will have an idea of what my daily regimen will be. I am not nervous but nearly obsessed...watching Videos , reading blogs, and forums for information. Can't wait!

Tylr,
I have just about the same post op stats. Sleeved Oct 12 SW 205, CW 193. I am fitting into clothes that were a little snug but can't really "see" a significant difference. I was a lower bmi'er but started feeling like based on other people's success I will not see the weight loss I'd hoped for. Really hope this isn't the case:(
