-

-
Best wishes!

October 3rd Pittsburgh pa Dr Eid In preop hell right now but it'll be worth it in the end
-
"I don't have any f&$ks to give" that made me lol. That's about how I feel right now.
-
And...the nausea's back, awesome. After office hours so can't call the doc till tomorrow. This is harder than I thought it would be I hope post op isn't like this.
-
I think you can, but I dunno how tasty they would be.
-
No contract here either. I am soooo hungry right now! Grrr. So glad u all feel my pain and I can complain here
-
Warm and cold. I got some isopure down and am feeling better. Now drinking some unjury chicken broth. I am a big baby about nausea. I hate to throw up. Maybe I just needed some protein? Who knows. Needless to say, this preop diet thing isn't real fun.
-
Good luck, keep us posted!
-
Popsicles are gooood! Sugar free of course. Nice to chew something a little.
-
I'm not sure but I hope it works out for you. Being you were on antibiotics it should clear it up I would think. I would call the dr to ease my mind.
-
Amen to the starving! Cruel and unusual punishment lol.
-
I am not nervous right now-it's like my brain has decided to block it out like it's not real. Strange I know. Now wed night I'll probably be in full freakout mode lol. I'm not looking forward to being in the hospital either. I don't like relying on others to care for me. I'm afraid of being sick after surgery. And in pain. I'm sure we'll do great. I'm trying to keep a really positive attitude about the whole thing.
-
Thank you! I called them and they said "well, just keep an eye on it and call us if you start getting sick and can't hold down liquids". Also told me to try getting in some protein-if I could drink I would happily do that! Um thanks for nothing! So I'll probably be calling back later. I feel like they aren't taking me real seriously

Hi all! I'm on day 2 of my clear liquids only diet and I'm feeling very nauseous. Any tips on how to deal with this or how long it lasts? I'm scheduled to be sleeved on thurs. I'm afraid I'm going to start puking then not be able to drink anything. I breezed through yesterday. Should've known it couldn't be that easy lol.
-
Hi sleeve buddy! I'm on thurs as well and on day 2 of my clear liquid only diet. Felt ok yesterday but feeling nauseous today. Good luck to you thurs!!!
-
This happened to me this week at Disney. Excruciating. I too have at least 110 lbs to lose. Totally ruined my trip. What a shame.
-
Thank u for the positive thoughts! I just woke up and already hungry. I'm having some tea and trying not to smell the eggs my moms cooking in the other room. I CAN do this (is what I'll keep telling myself lol),
-
Good lord woman! That's a long time. You are going to rock it though, no doubt
-
Just ate my last supper before preop diet tomorrow. Makes it so real, it's freaking me out. Surgery day is thurs 10/3. I have 4 days of nothing but clear liquids. I'm scared of messing it up and ruining my surgery so I will be strong. My hubby is doing it with me believe it or not! Isn't he the best! Well see how long it lasts before we kill each other lol. So I just have to cook for my 5 year old. I've noticed a lot of us our going this week so good luck to us all and best wishes for speedy recoveries!
-
I start tomorrow. But mines clear liquids only for 5 days. Eek!
-
Aw! Don't be ashamed! I was at first too but now I know I'm doing what's best for my health. I'm telling close friends and family.
-
Thank u Susie I will definitely remember this when making good choices in the future!
