Initially you do have to take small sips but it will get better...take small sips and take them often...keep Water in your hand, it helps!

Trust me, you won't drink too much. You want to stay hydrated, that will help you heal faster. Hang in there and welcome to the wls family

Hello everyone! I am currently doing my liquid diet ( it's so hard!) And have surgery on Friday August 7th. I have some concerns because I am an athelete. I do jiu-jitsu and boxing and I'm worried that such low caloric intake will reduce my energy levels drastically and my muscles. I'm concerned I won't be strong. I currently weigh 200lbs. And the reason I am doing this is because even though I am always working out and have been for about 4 years now, I still have the hardest time losing weight. If I do happen to lose a couple of pounds I can't keep them off. And my weight has gotten in the way of my sports. For example I can't compete in boxing because there aren't very many girls out there in the same weight category. Same goes for jiu-jitsu. If I lose about 45 lbs I will be able to do all those things. And we'll thats not the only reason. I 22 and being overweight feels like a burden, it's harder to socialize with people, make friends, date, and I always feel self-conscious.
I guess I'm posting cause I need some support and have doubts!

Wow, made it to the other side. I am now a post sleever. Had surgery Monday. Honestly Monday was not a good day, it was because of the anesthesia, and that was my 3rd surgery. Never reacted like that. It was hard to wake up, but I did, pain not bad, nausea not bad. Just got home. Drinking my Protein shake and will drink more Water, sips of course. It has really helped reading this website. Thanks guys, any other August, or September sleevers, please feel free to ask any questions. I am one of those who never thought I would do this, still feels a little unreal.

Congratulations!! I know the 1,000 sit-up feeling. I remember that more than anything!!

I had my sleeve yesterday. Walking is pretty tough but im trying to get up and move. Im sipping Water slowly, ive got terrible dry mouth.
