I am on a stall from week 2-3 also. It sucks. It is hard not to get discouraged.

A tiny bit milky. Not too bad at all. It goes well in cream soups and oatmeal.

Congrats on the date Sarasleeves. That's right around the corner.

Yayyy! Congrats. Happy to hear from you. I like the premier protein shakes. Vanilla and strawberry is my fave. I use genepro for my unflavored its pretty good too. So how are you feeling now?

Thank you, Sara! Girl, get everything in I am loving my sleeve but it is frustrating now getting full so fast. But its honestly not bad and totally worth it. Keep us posted. I hope you hear something soon! I know what it is like to be in limbo. Good luck!

Yes, good luck Meme. Lisa called me later in tue afternoon too. Keep us posted. Sarasleeves you also keep us posted. I am feeling really good. I am down 16 lbs. I cheated and am eating purees and some soft foods. I have felt great though.

I would definitely stay at least one night. I flew home on the 2nd day and it was tough. 2hr flight and then an hour drive home.

No, he didn't say anything about it. I sure felt guilty though. I definitely didn't coffee at all either.

I totally flunked the pre op diet. I am embarrassed, I did that bad. I am feeling so so. The gas is horrible. Every drink I take hurts. But I am graduating feeling better. I think you will be good.

I had mine yesterday with Dr. Long. He is super nice. They told me I would go home the same day, but I ended up being kept all night because of trouble with pain management. I was released this morning.

You may be better off to go the hiatal hernia route.

I am October 8th

Hows everyone doing With preop diet? Loosingit how are you doing?

Oh no, so sorry to hear that. Girl I can't imagine your devastation. I know how upset I was with every roadblock. But don't lose faith I thought I was screwed multiple times. Like my husband was probably ready to leave my depressing, moping butt. I would not stop whining. But God made a way and I am two weeks out. Can you apply for credit?

Yes! I have already gained about 20 lbs in anticipation. Has anyone had anyone really discuss the cost or what needs paid in advance or anything?

October 8th!! That's my big day!

Thank you guys. I will keep you updated. It's pretty cool we have each other to relate too! ☺

Still no date! ???? I didn't have high expectations. I keep watching airline tickets increase in price and I am starting to panic. But I am blessed to have this opportunity at a discounted cost so I am gonna try and be patient.

That's awesome! I'm excited for you.

Congrats ladies! Did she offer you options?

Will you message me her email? Who is your Dr again?

Yeah, I am definitely not holding my breath for a date tomorrow. I did call Lisa today and leave a message saying I am ready before Silivia gave me the go ahead, so we will see if that helped anything. I don't know whats so hard about scheduling surgeries, but I am sure she has other responsibilities. Keep me posted ladies!!

Have you guys heard anything yet? Silvia called me today to let me know I am cleared. She said Lisa will call tomorrow. I am excited. She was real sweet.

You look great! How's your skin?

They do that for the egd because they are trained to find even the smallest hernias. I already had my egd scheduled before I called their office because my plans were to use a Dr in Michigan. The Melissa at Nicholson clinic tried to talk me out of doing my egd here but I had faith and did it anyways. Melissa at Nicholson clinic is great by the way! Are you doing hernia route?
