@@EJS I've thought about you several times. How are you doing? Any better?

My Gawd, I sure hope so! I keep reminding myself why I felt surgery was the best option....this of course is while I currently remain sitting in the hospital room. They gave me the 1 ounce pill containers to sip from. Two per hour should take us leaps and bounds...so I've been told. Bottoms up my friend!

EJS ~ I am so sorry that you've been through so much. Has your doctor considered re-admitting you so they can gv the meds and fluids through an IV until you are over this hurdle?

My sleeve was on the 23rd in Cincinnati, Oh and I was admitted back to the hospital within less than 24 hours from my surgery d/t vomitting bile & blood. The nausea has been so bad. Today I finally feel a smidge better.

You're in my thoughts and prayers.

Thanks for the quick reply and helpful suggestions! I've tried sticking with the positive YouTube videos & even some that aren't so positive so that I can be better prepared. I'm concerned about the puree stage bc I'm so picky. For instance I don't eat eggs, cottage cheese, yogurt, any seafood...yeah, I know, I'm in for a challenge! Knowing that the surgery will be a tool to living a healthier lifestyle is certainly my driving force. Finding high Protein puree foods will be my dilema.

Thanks again for your suggestions & kudos to you for choosing to live healthy!

Hi! My sleeve is scheduled for 4/23 & I'm getting super nervous about the puree stage. I do feel prepared -at all-. I have read and watched so many videos. Any support that can be offered, recipes, suggestions... (p.s. I don't like eggs or cottage cheese). Thank you!
