It gets easier, you'll get the odd craving now and then and hunger calls but it's all worth it! I'm now 8 day post op and it's the best decision I ever made! Good luck! ????

@@englandgirlsleever I know u mean well we r all one big family here. I appreciate the bluntness sometimes it's necessary. I'm so nervous and scared I was literally fine once it became one week til my surgery I've been so scared/ in panic mode. But I will b ok I'm gonna get prepared and get it together

I didn't have to on the 2 week liquid diet, jus for 1 week only I've been having mostly liquids . I "cheated and ate like a handful of rice with very small pieces of fish. I ate it because I was so hungry and weak. I'm learning from this though as to why it's happening I need to drink more Protein and liquids. I've been stuck on sugar free popsicles. I know that after surgery when I have liquids I will feel more versus the way I feel now pre op.

I got sleeved yesterday! Everything went great, took me a lot longer to come around after than expected! I also lost 7kg from my week pre op diet yipeeee! Still in hospital and get discharged tomorrow! Still on Water at the moment, for all people who are doubting having it done, believe me it worth it! X

Hope it gets better. The nurse should get in touch with your surgeon, maybe?

Glad you are feeling better

Actually, eventually, you WILL be able to eat ice cream again, but isn't eating all that luscious stuff that we shouldn't what got us here in the first place? Your tastes may change - you may not be craving sweets after - and this is a TOOL to get us where we need to be to START OVER and start eating healthy. If you don't start the good habits before surgery, you set yourself up for failure after. IT'S NOT A QUICK FIX!
Sure, you can have ice cream afterwards - in moderation, after you've had the stuff that's GOOD for you. Eat to live, not live to eat. Treats are just that: occasional TREATS, not daily fare.

@@englandgirlsleever, the only person you need to convince is you. Don't worry yourself about what people have to say, some of them just wished they could afford it. So the best of luck to you my sleeve sister.

I really didn't tell that many people. Told my hubby and my sister and a couple of girls at work. We used to do the diff diets together and fail each time.one was pretty awesome about it but the other one gave me a lecture. How i didn't need it and can do it by myself. She had just started another liquid diet and asked me to join her. Well that failed 3 days later Bec we couldn't keep up. Any way, i went back to work after being out for a month after surgery and 20lbs down. Looked so good. Felt even better. And every one wanted to know what i was doing. My response was diet and exercising 5 days a week.which i really do. Am so happy at this point that i really think I'll tell anyone who really wants to know..

I'm scheduled for 7th Aug! I'm so excited but hate telling people I'm having my surgery. Everyone is so negative about it, most people believe I don't need it and I'm too young. I'm 21, 244lbs and 5ft7 and self paid. It's so hard to help others understand how I feel about myself when nobody wants to listen, has anyone else been in this boat? I'm on jelly and clear Soup diet and my 1st day has gone great ????x

i completely understand!!! Everyone told me to get up and moving and the weight would come off, but it came back on just as easy. I had me surgery on June 15, and altogether I have lost 46 lbs and it feel so much easier to get moving and going. I have so much energy!!! My house is always clean(which is amazing as I run a home daycare) and I also walk about 3-4 miles a day. Before I could walk to the mailbox and be winded! So, take this step and be proud of your self for bettering you and take this time to focus on you and what your "new" you will be????????

Gosh you have done so well! Well done! ????I only hope I feel the way you do afterwards! Everyone says don't lose your 'sparkle' and I know in myself I won't but all you want is that support around you which I can't find! Thank you for your reply!
