    8 days post op

    Hi I was also sleeved on June 23rd. I've been on a puréed diet since leaving the hospital. On yesterday I had : Premier Protein (I drink a few ounces at a time throughout the day only had a tiny bit left) Grits with swiss cheese and chicken 2 Sugar free Popsicles Chili (for both lunch & dinner, it was really good and I added a little swiss cheese at dinner) Poweraid Zero Water It hasn't been too bad I've tried to change it up an not purée too much of anything at one time. I actually feel like I've tolerated everything pretty good, the amounts of course are not very large. The other day I even puréed a pot pie...added a little chicken broth and it tasted great. I would have never thought to try it but a friend visiting brought one over. I highly recommend chili it's been the best tasting thing to me so far!

    June 24th Peeps chime in!

    I'm June 23rd (Tuesday) my pre-op diet was not very restrictive just the day before liquids only. But I must admit I did have a few last minute food funerals so I decided to do two days of only liquids to make up for my mess up. Really looking forward to my surgery but my nerves are going crazy and I can't seem to stay off this site reading! Wishing eveyone a successful surgery day!
  7. My surgery is also on Tuesday June 23rd so I know exactly how you feel! I am pretty nervous but excited all at the same time! However I have faith that for both of us that all will go well and we will be home recovering before you know it! Wishing you much success!
  8. It's starting to really hit me...today I started my preop diet which means I am exactly 14 days away from surgery which is on June 23, 2015! I am excited but I also feel my nerves kicking in as well. My mind and emotions are all over the place!! I hope this will get better because this will be a long 14 days if I don't get a hold of mysel!! Does anyone else understand how I'm feeling? Is this normal? How did you deal with your emotions as your surgery date got closer?
  9. Praying that all goes well today and that you will have a speedy pain-free recovery!
  10. Glad you are feeling so good after surgery! I have a couple of weeks to go and I hope to do as well as you! Is it accurate to say that you are not having much pain?

      The more informed you are the greater you will do. You will be prepared for what comes your way and you will know about typical things like having patient in the beginning to sip, sip, sip. The dreaded 3 week stall...while aggravating is something everyone does and where I am right now. We are all here for you!
