ashlewis1977 replied to HipsAndLipstick's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
On the other side now! Just a bit uncomfortable now. So I go on full liquids for 2 weeks tomorrow... Haven't lost any weight yet.. Nor do I want to even look at food. -

I know...my date is jan 6 and started my 2 week Monday. Supposed to be 5 shakes a day and water and broth in between. I'm going nuts too. Can barely get 3 shakes down. I'm thinking of a grilled chicken and vegetable dinner tonight. No carbs. Would that be a terrible idea? -
Starting The Liquid Diet
ashlewis1977 replied to life2celebrate's topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
Started mine today. Let's just say only could tolerate 3 of the 5 shakes I was told to drink daily. Did broth and jello. This is going to be a long 2 weeks. I'm weak! -

Pre op diet over the holidays
ashlewis1977 replied to shungsleeve's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Omg... Ever since I got the approval I have been experiencing acid reflux. Never have before. Even the endoscopy came back with no stomach issues. Why is this all the sudden happening?!?! -
Anyone getting sleeved next week ?
ashlewis1977 replied to Suko75's topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
Prayers are with y'all!! Keep us posted. Mine is jan 6 so I start my liquids Monday! I'm so excited but scared too. It's still a few weeks but I read and read on here and get freaked out. But I want to change my health just don't want to destroy it in the process...anybody else feel this way? -

ashlewis1977 replied to shungsleeve's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
You are so right. My husband told me the same thing no gumbo for you this year. How funny. I will keep everyone in my prayer. We have to keep in touch over the holidays. Are you getting sleeved on 01/06? Yes, January 6th!!! What a way to start a new year!!! -

Pre op diet over the holidays
ashlewis1977 replied to shungsleeve's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Lots of encouragement here... I've been thinking the same thing! I start my pre op liquids the same day on the 13th. First thing when I told my fam...oohh NO gumbo for you!!! But I can do it! I've been working hard for months to get this surgery! I will be praying for you and hope you will be praying for me in return... Just think of the real reason for the season... Celebrating the birth of Jesus...not food...
