Ello, also a fellow 6/15 er . Like you I have felt good from the beginning... Aside from the nausea right out of surgery. I have lost a total of 7lbs since surgery. I have read that some don't see loss right away because of swelling but I am not sure. Just remember although we have had the same procedure our journeys will be slightly different.

I'm three days post

I was told by my doc that I could return back to work when er I felt ready to. I am soposed to go back on Friday.

I found skinny syrups at Burlington coat factory and at Ross. But you can get torani at almost any grocery store.

I am one day post op and they gave me sugar free pudding at the hospital along with cream of chicken soup.

I'm still here. Can go home tonight they wanted to see if I could tolerate my food. They said I'm doing really well and they have advanced my diet. I've moved from liquids to cream of chicken soup and pudding. Yay! Never thought I would have cream soup this early.

How is everyone feeling today? I actually feel pretty good. I'm tired but the pain isn't to bad. Sip sip sip but I want to guzzle my mouth is so dry. Every time I take a drink of water it feels like my stomach is growling. They said I was doing good with the water so they let me have broth last night. And who else has green peee in... I know.... Gross.... Hope everyone else is doing well today!

One day post op and not feeling too horrible. No nausea since I first woke up and have only pressed the button for pain meds once and that was yesturday morning. Every time I sip water my stomach growls at me... So happy I finally made it to the losers bench.

I've got about six hours till check in and I can't sleep! Good luck with your surgery tomorrow!

How did you get so lucky... I wish my pre op looked that good... liquids for 2 plus weeks with only certain veggies... and three day liquid right before.

I took this yesturday and the other one was taken about a year ago... It still amazes me

I am now 35 lbs down... Surgery scheduled for Monday day!

I'm getting so nervous.... Less then two days left! I will be checking in at the hospital at six am surgery at seven. I've told a total of four people what Im doing. I live in a very small community so I am sure there will be alot of talk. Was debating on just making a public post on Facebook.... But I think I'll just let em guess. Good luck to the rest of you June 15th sleevers!

I'll be checking in at six too! Got to drive about an hour before I get to the hospital. Don't think I'll sleep well Sunday! Good luck to you!

2 days til I get my sleeve. Had to come here for some more motivation and inspiration. You all are Amazing!!!!

so no shakes.. my dr's office is closed or else I would call them

what is your diet? I think my doc said full liquid, but he may have said clear liquid...

I had to quit six weeks prior ro surgery... I had my pre op diet last week and the nurse told me Jo smoking after cause it will cause ulcers in my pouch... Maybe he was just trying g to scare me. I really want a cig.. Hahah... But I'll try not to

June 15th herr! I've been working g on my pre op since the end of April! I am now doing three shakes a day with a half a shake in between meals. I can have veggies ip to three days before. Total lost so far is 33lbs. I can't wait til this is done! Good luck to everyone else on there journeys!

Down 33lbs on preop have been on my pre op diet since about the last week in April... Insurance held me up.

Well that's a good thing

Chantix has nicotine doesn't it?

I know ten days to go for me. I am so freaking out! Not scared but the anticipation!

I do t think the cravings will go away... To many triggers. Everyone around me smokes. I've quit worse things in life so I think I'll be OK. I think I might get another pen just to have around just in case. The worst part of quiting for surgery is having to be on the dreaded pre op diet at the same time.

I'm a June 15th sleever! I started my four week pre op diet six weeks ago. Two more weeks to go Woo-hoo!
