I had a horrible night with gas pain and did what everyone else is saying: WALK WALK WALK! It really does help. I do a minimum of 5 laps. Hang in there, friend, you can do it! Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Had my sleeve at 9am yesterday and mine is crazy sore too. I'm sure it will last a few days. It feels so swollen that ice chips get stuck when trying to get it down Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Sleeved at 9am yesterday and pretty much woke up from anesthesia totally around 7pm that night. Immediately got up and walked and did 5 laps. Then around 11-12 am, the gas pains set in. Ugggggggg! The bear helps a little! Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Hello all! I am having my surgery on Monday Dec 5th and I was just wondering if anyone on their pre-op liquid diets are going through the same thing I am. I am VERY tired all of the time since being on this liquid diet. I've always been a 'night owl' and up until the wee hours of the morning, but now I cannot wait to go to bed...which is usually around 8pm and that is SO unusual for me. As i'm writing this, my eyelids are droopy and I just want to sleep! The first 3-5 days of my liquid diet i felt like i was completely in a 'fog' state. I just felt so WEIRD! Also, i went to my pre-admission appointment yesterday and my blood pressure was so crazy low. I forget what the top number was (but it was lower than usual), but the bottom number was like 60. Usually im like 110/80 or higher) The nurse said it was pretty common while on these liquid diets but I was just wondering if anyone else is going through it as well. That might explain the dizziness that I had all day yesterday <shrug>

I don't have any nicotine requirements but I quit in the 90's anyway. Not sure about marijuana. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App
