Hey found a semi cure for the shoulder pain....icy hot patches! Allowed to me to sleep a little better! Laying on my sides is still a major issue but hoping it gets better! I hate sleeping on my back! As able to get my meds down today! Day three post op and its better then day two lol......well trying to get some outside walking in before the rains start! Best of luck to those being sleeved today!

Found something for my shoulder pain.....ice hot patches! Had some in the house worked wonders. Feeling better on day three! Best of lock to those who are scheduled today!

Well I'm sleeved.....I have to say the first several days were not fun....I'm crossing my finger it gets better! The left shoulder pain is the worst...the nurses said its from laying on the operating table for so long and trapped gas! Omg it makes ya want to cry...I'm trying to get my liquids in but it ain't easy by no means! They say walking help yes it does but it was much easier to walk in the hospital. I've walked tonite til my legs hurt...I've had popsicles and beef broth and jello - keeping it all down, though when I eat the broth It feels funny (a little painful) going down and hitting my stomach. I get a little nausea too- but not as bad as the 1st day in the hospital. I know it's a slow process but still! How's everyone else doing? And thanks for letting me vent here! Oh if anyone's doing your sleeve at Jackson south-they were AWESOME!

Omg i thought maybe it was just me but seems everybody's going thru it the left shoulder pain is almost unbearable!! I've walked til my legs hurt I try and get up every 2 hrs to walk and drink something! I was sleeved on weds and I'm praying for one little thing to stop hurting. I know the pain will go away but I guess it wouldn't be so bad that I want to cry sometimes - takes my breath away! Ive been eating Popsicles and having beef broth keeping everything down....but when I eat the broth it hits my stomach and feels an odd little pain....hoping that goes away soon! I feel like I need to drink more but can't- the doctor said take a sip every two to three mins....I know I got this but still....hoping tomorrow is a better day for all of us!

I'm sleeved.....everything went great...I'm home now! BOY U GUYS AREN'T KIDDING ABOUT GAS PAIN! That liked to kill me. Oh I did get a migraine today - but one Tylenol subsided it. Ate some broth....and a Popsicle - now to get some rest....FYI- all u soon to sleever after surgery WALK WALK WALK!

Ok in my room... All is well other then extremely painful back pain!!!!!

At the hospital now waiting on registration to Open up!!!! Not scared- more ready to just do this!

Well all is great....surgeons office got the clearance letters and the coordinator said if I don't here back from her before 5pm it's a go....it's 622pm....so it's a go! Yee-haw! *****best of luck to everyone tomorrow- we got this*****

Omg just got a call from the surgeon - they haven't got my clearance letters from my primary and cardiologist ..... And my surgery is tomorrow morning....really don't need the last min panic mode. Called the doctors now its sit and wait til I can call them again to follow up.....omg omg omg!! Really?

Two more days til new me.... Just sitting here at work and tried Isopure clear mango peach! Surprisingly yummy!

I'm super lucky....not on a pre-op diet....doc says u can try and lose weight if u want....just no eating after midnight the night before surgery!

I love EAS vanilla! As far as powder. Lean Body chocolate and vanilla for ready-made and Any Muscle Milk ones. The Lean Body has now sugar.

June is here- it's show time!

Ok gang JUNE is here..... Ready or not World here we come!

I've been experimenting before my surgery on food... For the purée portion- I just took two chicken breast boiled vitamin water added some seasoning, Put it in my ninja and . Then added honey mustard sauce and puréed it some more and it is delicious... I'm sure you can try it with Any seasoning or condiments. Now Hope in a few weeks I can actually stomach it

Well it's OFFICAL....5 more days! I'm so excited!

Hey ' Thisismyyear' I'm the same day! Yeah!

Well....just got cardiac clearance....IT'S OFFICAL...5 more days! I'm SO excited!! Sorry just had to get it out-cause my family and friends have no idea I'm doing this!

I'm one week away to on the 5th.... Sitting in the doc office waiting to meet the bariatric team... Had a set back with my heart, still waiting on clearance from the cardiologist - but he said proceed with everything! Just had a CTA scan yesterday- figured if they didn't stop the test and rush up to a room I passed! Crossing my fingers! Will know more Friday on that! Had the endoscopy and upper GI last week- all went well... So know it's done to the final stretch!! I'm more excited then scared! Good luck to everyone! June 5th can't come fast enough!
