  1. I was sleeved on 9-3. Experiencing some of the same things. I'm still on clear liquids at least through day eight. Everything feels funny going down, not painful, just strange. I drink 2 protein shakes a day( takes me about 3 hours), crystal lite all day( watered down) , broth, sf Popsicles and jello.
  2. I was sleeved on the 3rd. Today was a good day. I got all my fluids and protein in. I'm not having any pain. Sometimes when I swallow, it feels like some gurgling going on down there. I ate some creamy tomato soup ( about 4 bites). I was very nauseous first two days, but fine since Saturday. TMI: I pooped today too! Happy day! What about you?
  3. I'm 3 days post op. My NUT instructions said I could eat strained cream soups. Stupid question here, but does that include tomato, potato, squash?
  4. I did great with the surgery. I was terribly nauseated until this morning. I'm trying to get my fluids and protein in. I had some cream soup for lunch. LOL 4 tiny bites! But it tasted good. My taste buds are freaking out. My incisions don't bother me. Still a little gaseous, but overall good.
  5. Can I mix a little PB2 in my shake?
  6. I'm 3 days post op and the smell and taste of my PP shakes is making me sick. What can I add to it to make it where I might can get some down? I added Unjury to my crystal lite. Didn't like it. Helpful advice please!
  7. Every Time I sip anything it feels like it's sitting on an air bubble ready to pop. Everything else is great! No incision pain. Is that a gas bubble or just how it feels going down?
  8. Tomorrow is my day. Nervous and excited! Ready to start my new life! Can someone please tell how great it's going to be on the other side? Please?
  9. Good luck! My surgery is Thursday. Positive thoughts coming your way!
  10. I'm 9 days into my pre-op diet. My NUT also wanted me to exclusively use New Direction. I bought it from their store. I'm sick of it. Only 2 more days to go! I rather just drink broth if I could.
  11. Do you mix the Unjury chicken soup with water? Or put it in other things? Thanks so much for answering????
  12. I want to get this before my surgery and try it out. Thanks!
  13. I'm trying to get more informed everyday before my surgery on Thursday, but all this talk of dumping and frothing are really making me nervous! It feels like the more I know, the less I really do! I guess you just have to experience it yourself. ( TMI) I've had hemorrhoid surgery, and after that, I believe I can handle this. I'm also afraid my family is going to get sick of this process before it's over.
  14. Good Luck! My surgery is Thursday and I can't wait!
  15. I'm on day 8 of high protein pre op diet. Doing really good. I can't believe it's almost here!
  16. Just had my endoscopy on August 19th. My drs. office called today to say I had h. Pylori. I'm on antibiotics for two weeks. I'm in the middle of my pre-surgery diet. My surgery is scheduled for Sept. 3rd. Is this gonna cancel my surgery? They didn't say that when they called me today. I'm about to cry worrying about it. I'm ready. I don't want to wait.
  17. Does anybody use one? Is it worth the money?
  18. My surgery is September 3rd. So excited. I started my pre-op diet today. Going good. I'm self pay and my biggest fear is complications. I've read a lot of horror stories on here today and it's got me a little nervous.
  19. They numbed my nose and throat. Not pleasant, but ok.
  20. I'm not going to be put to sleep or sedated at all? Is this normal? Im nervous. How is it?
  21. My surgery is not until September 3rd. I knew yours was Monday and just wondered how it was. I'm glad you're doing great. Would love to hear about your days and progress. I start my two week prep in one week????
