I don't know if I have lost any since surgery. I am feeling great tho. No problem getting liquids in or anything. I want to move to full liquids but can't till my appt on thurs.

I'm feeling good. Trying to keep up on my liquids. And taking pain meds about every 4hrs. Gas pain is not bad at all. Just have to drink slow. I can feel it going down and if I take too big of a gulp I have to burp and it hurts a bit. It's easier than I thought it would be tho!

You take it at noon the day before. By the morn you are fine. And my surgery was not until 2 pm. Could not drink after midnight the night b4.

It clears out your system. So there will be nothing in your stomach when they do surgery.

Feeling good. Not too much gas pain. Just upper stomach pain and the meds have been controlling that.

Congrats. It will b here before u know it. I'm just about to leave the hospital. All went well!

Doing well. Leaving the hospital in a few!

Its a little expensive but not too bad. I think the other link I found you can personalize and date too. Those are more expensive. https://www.etsy.com/listing/162403454/weight-loss-surgery-plush-toy-gastric If you google gastric sleeve plush you get a bunch. They even have key chains as a cheeper alternative!

Ah that's cute!! I sent him the link to buy it as a hint I wanted it. I saw the charge through our bank account, so I know I am getting it.

It will go fast! trust me! My husband ordered me a plush sleeve stomach like in your profile pic. I will get it at the hospital tomorrow!

Mine is tomorrow too! I am psyched. Cannot wait to become the new me! We will do great!

I just don't think it has hit me yet! I am so excited. Took my magnesium citrate drink and have to pack my bag. I'm more excited rather than nervous. Anyone around theme same time? Nervous? Excited? Anything special to bring to hospital besides Chapstick?

I was just at a conference for 4 days and I did cheat a few times but made good decisions on fish and chicken. I am now back in the swing of things. 3 more days to go.

I am not. I have a shake for breakfast and lunch. Then a lean protein with green veggies for dinner. I can have 1/2 cup cottage cheese, applesauce or oatmeal twice a day too. And a shake for snack after dinner if needed.

I'm from buffalo. Will be sleeved on OCT 15th. Just started my pre op diet and feeling wonderful! Good luck to everyone and their journey!
