AwesomeSleeve

Hi there cantwait1. We share the same surgery date so I guess that makes us sleeve-sisters. Welcome to the forum. My surgeon requires a two-week liquid diet which consists of Clear Liquids and full liquids but the day before surgery, I am on a clear liquid diet. Did your surgeon specify which diet... clear or full?

That's awesome!!! Congrats.

That is absolutely fantastic!!! You have done an awesome job working your sleeve and it is truly showing. You have worked hard. Congratulations.

I love Panera Bread and their low-fat chicken noodle soup is absolutely delicious.

Amybaby33, I'm so happy that you are doing so well. I believe a positive attitude is half of the battle to a speedy recovery. I wish you continued success with your sleeve. You are doing great. Msmomof3, I'm right there with you. My summer class ends the week we have surgery and I have to take a final exam and turn in a project. I teach a group of four year olds and they are a very busy bunch. I will return to work a week after surgery. I know that we will do great because we are determined and focused and we are both ready to start our "new life".

Good for you DrMommy. The sooner the better. Wishing you luck.

Wow!!! Your weight loss is awesome. Keep doing what you're doing. You will definitely make your goal. Good luck!

Congrats to you Bryn. Sounds like you are doing great. Wishing you a speedy recovery.

Thanks Dawn and Carmen. Since Sunday, I've lost 7 lbs and am feeling so good. I'm excited about joining the loser's bench. We will all do fabulous with our sleeve.... I can feel it!!! Have a wonderful weekend ladies.

Hi Karen. It's good to know that you are doing so well. Wishing you a speedy recovery. Remember to sip and walk. Keep us posted on your progress.

Yaaaay!!!! Congratulations.

Carmen, my pre-op diet consists of a whey Protein shake for Breakfast, lunch and dinner and a high protein snack of at least 25 grams of protein. I sip on Clear Liquids and full liquids between meals. I have have the following clear liquids: Water, broth (any flavor), sf Gelatin, sf popsicles, sf kool-aid, crystal light, decaf unsweetened coffee and te, diet Arizona tea, diet Snapple and Propel fitness water. Full liquids are low-fat cream Soups, tomato Soup, low-fat yogurt, skim milk, soy milk, Lactaid milk, sf fudge pops and sf low-fat pudding. I'm allowed 1300 calories a day but am not coming close to this; at least 100 grams of protein a day; less than 100 grams of carbs

Happy things went well for you "ccbcdeke". I'm sure being home is a lot better than being in the hospital. Keep us posted.

Good luck everyone!! Sending positive thoughts and vibes your way.

Today is the fourth day of my liquid diet and I can honestly say each day does get better. In reality, it would be a much better experience if I wasn't having these darn hot flashes. My surgeon took me off of my HRT medication until after surgery. For those of you who are on your liquid diet, how is it going for you?

Good for you Leslie. There is no place like home. Wishing you a speedy recovery.

Foxbins, congratulations!!! You are doing an awesome job with your sleeve. You should be super proud of yourself. We are rooting for you.

Nancy you are doing remarkably well. I hope things continue to go well for you. Keep us updated.

Glad you are feeling better Leslie. Wishing you a speedy recovery.

Hansi, it's wonderful to know that you are doing so well. I hope my post-op is as uneventful as yours. Thank you for the positive thoughts.

Happy that you are doing better and are in better spirits. Wishing you a speedy recovery.

Hi Mary. I live about 5 minutes from Mount Holly so we aren't that far from each other. Wow! It's a small world. I hope you are doing well with your sleeve.

OMG!!! You look fabulous. I can't wait to be where you are now.

Congratulations. Good to hear you are doing so well. Keep us posted.
