    I got my sleeve on 6/02/16 I'm 4days out I was wondering if the pain I feel when I get up and sit down is normal . The pain feels like everything is pulling on my right side and that's the side they pulled the stomache out. I'm new to this so don't know if that is normal pain ?

    I had the surgery on the same day as you 6/2 and I have the same pain , right side , that was the incision they work and pull you stomach out

    It's hard and painful

    I have my first appointment June 1st, honestly, I'd love to get the surgery over the summer (as this is when I have the most help/time off), But.... I doubt this is possible? I have a couple friends who had surgery with the same guy I have a consult with. (A preferred surgeon through my insurance, thus being covered at a higher rate) And she said it took 6 months. She also said if I was to be more flexible with scheduling appointments. (With nutritionist, psychologist, etc.) It could go faster. But how much faster?

    All depend the insurance , the doctors ,my first appointment was February 12 my last appointment was May 17 my surgery date is June 2 , I got the approved letter from my insurance two week ago , all depends

    So I've started my pre-opp / liver shrinking diet ... 13 days.. (now 12) I have to eat 800 calories per day or less.. I'm sure on an average day I chow down three times that (which is why I'm in this position). But basically high Protein, low cal is the goal.. beyond that I can kinda eat how I like. I'm also trying to go from 30 oz liquid a day (roughtly) to 60-70 which is really hard.

    So day 1

    Protein shake (300 cal with added Fairlife Protein milk)

    sugar free Jello

    Marinated Vegetable salad X2 servings

    Cottage cheese 1 cup (2%)

    Fl Oz - 58 oz (protein shake, Water, flavored water)

    I'm full of Fluid.. but having horrible head hunger.. I want something like chips or Cookies or..etc - not giving in but miserable.. Of course being full of Fluid means I can't go 15 minutes without peeing.. I'm also really tired and oddly I'm COLD (I'm always hot)

    Is all of this.. normal? what else am I going to experience.. does it get easier.. I have 12 more days of this :( I know I should be grateful it's not as bad as a lot of other pre-opp diets but ugh.. it's so little food compared to what I normally eat..

    I'm on my first day of liquid diet as well , today I feel fine , I had Protein shakes , broth , Water , sugar free Jello , sugar free Popsicles and I can have a salad , only greens with a little chicken and I'm feel great , let see tomorrow , my surgery is June 2

    Just scheduled my pre op. Surgery Date is June 1st. I'm an LPN, mother of a 3yr old girl and in school working towards my ASN. I'm pretty nervous about the surgery. I'm concerned about losing my hair after surgery as well. Any late may early June sleevers? What Vitamins is everyone taking?
