Call the doctor's office again or go to the office if he is there and asked to speak with your doctor directly or office coordinator. If you are in pain or stress maybe like it was said go to urgent care.

I hope you are doing well!

Two days after my surgery the hospital gave me lukewarm chicken broth. When it touched my lips I was feeling well enough to go home. I almost walked home. At home it is low-sodium Campbell's with white pepper.

Welcome and thank you for sharing. I sure you will get back on track. I just had my sleeve and indeed l am newbie. However, I know that you taken a brave step forward. Keep reaching out.

The end of day 5 of 7 pre-op, I have noticed the number of coupons for my favorite restaurants have increase by 100% that come to my email inbox. They tell me to "come on down and enjoy a free appetizer on us. " I can't eat but I can dream. One day, I will be able to smell my favorite appetizer. Until then I will just dream!

Yes, being able to do is a gift. I will never see it anyother way. Congratulations on you surgery. I read a lot. 24 pounds is great. Good job!

I hope you both had a great surgery. It will be soon time to sip sip and walk walk.

I am to worn out to cheat. I am not judging anyone else. I have made so many excuses related to why I am so fat. In the last six months I learned so much about my eating habits. I want this to be the start towards a healthier lifestyle. Now, do I hate smelling the great food my family is eating Yes Yes H...Yes. I really want some potatoes skins with extra cheese and bacon. But, I am going to drink my broth and pack my bag for the hospital!

I have talked about it with some of my co-workers. In the beginning, the conversation was, "your not that fat enough just workout." Another time it was "you have a husband why loss weight?" However recently, a have a few friends at work who have been my cheerleaders. But, I was never looking for permission just acceptance.

Congratulations! Good luck and make sure you sip sip sip and walk walk walk. Have a great journey!

Good luck and congrats! We can do this!

I lost my sister this April. It hurts so much that I am crying now. She had a massive hart attach in her bathroom after a workout. I doing this surgery for myself and family. I don't want to just die as it almost kills the ones you love. In the last 12 years I have also lost two baby boys and my parents. There are days I just cry. I want to live healthy and happy. This process is giving something positive to work on for life. I want to live above the pain.

I amon the second day of the liquid diet! Today's meals include protien shakes, beef broth and jello. I feel like I back in the hospital after having my son. How is your energy level? Any great tasting broth recommendations? Good luck to you all!

I have my date 08/01/2014. This is the second day of my pre-op, diet. I am so excited and scared. I did not understand how fat I had gotten until a saw my side profile in a store window. I been trying to lose weight for the last twelve years with little success. I am ready to get and use this tool for a healthier life. I love my husband and kids. I generally a happy personal and successful. But, being fat will kill me if I do not do this. I am ready and healthiness here I come.

Happy to have this change.
