Give Crystal light a try! It's delicious and you would never know there's no sugar in it. And yeah, the commercials are killer. I think I will be starting On Thursday, already counting down the days. How's your energy been? Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App Also, do you feel hungry ever? Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

By the end of the day I think I will have finished almost all of the Protein Shake. It is a struggle though, but at least I don't find them terribly disgusting. I just miss the taste of food. As far as pain, I'm doing pretty OK. My throat is still very sore, As is my stomach. It's not really just my incisions though, I feel more pain actually on the right side. When I lay down, there's no pain, it's mainly just when I transition positions. I think we are both doing pretty well for not even a week, don't you think? When do you move to pureed? Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App Have you been able to drink a lot? Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

How's everyone feeling?? Just wondering how you're all doing pain/energy wise- and see if I'm doing normally lol Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Let me know if your sleeve likes the puréed stage yet! I'm a bit nervous Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Hey all, I was sleeved on December 19th! I feel pretty good, A little bit of stomach pain and a ton of throat pain. I didn't realize just how much my throat was going to hurt. I've been drinking some broth and decaf tea, and I think it's slowly starting to help. Anyone have any experience with this? My other more important question, is how much Protein were you taking in four days post op? Seems that when I try to drink a decent amount of protein, even slowly, my stomach hurts. I just want to know what everyone else's experience was with this? Water is a bit easier! Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

I feel pretty good, I think I'm gonna take another day or two to really amp up my Protein. I drank half of the shake today, and I really didn't love the way it made me feel. It just seemed to sit very heavy. So I think I'll take one more day. My incisions don't hurt but oh my god my Throat does. Are you still taking pain meds? Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App And congrats to you to you as well! Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

I haven't had the problem of not being able to drink, because I have been SO thirsty. Omg your throat hurts bad too? Mine is killing me! Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

I'm here!!!! Good luck!!!! Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

I sure hope so. I wish you the best!

Doesn't it?? I can't wait Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

You got this!! Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Oh no! Well, hopefully you catch up on sleep these next few days! Mines at 9:30. So soon! Ahhhhh! Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

I've been having crystal light, water, and broth! Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

good luck! mine is tomorrow too and i hope you feel better!

did you happen to find an answer to this? my surgery is tomorrow and I was just wondering if this worked for you because it's a staple in my household.

ah I'm tomorrow too i can't believe it!

My surgery is tomorrow too, and reading your post diminished my residual nerves and now I'm just EXCITED. Good luck!! Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

I know, it's hard to think about anything else, but I'm so ready. How're you feeling?

Mine is 9:30 Monday morning! You're SO right, it felt so far away and yet here we are! Im super nervous and super excited. I think I'm the most concerned about coming out of anesthesia and the initial pain. I'm a huge baby, but this is so worth it. And from what i've heard, the pain is tolerable. The only pre-op I have is clear Fluid the day before. So tomorrow is my last hurrah with solid food for a while! The hospital called yesterday to ask some questions and tell me where to go. Then my doctor called this morning and confirmed the time. Good luck! We are going to kick butt!

no problem! and very! a bit nervous, but way more excited! you?

I sadly don't think so. I mean, every program is different. But if you were on a liquid only diet, I would definitely say no to the turkey bacon and eggs. My surgery is Monday too! So close! Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Hey guys! I am getting sleeved on Monday, 12/19! I have been hardcore lurking on here the past few days, and this community has already made me feel so much better. Reading the stories/updates about people's recovery really put me at ease. I don't do terribly well with anesthesia, but I really only have one surgery to base that on. I certainly know it's not going to be a walk in the park, and I truly am looking forward to a new me. I'm just a big baby when it comes to pain . Send some positive vibes my way on Monday, please! I can't wait to be on the other side with so many of you wonderful people!
