I told my boss I was having gallbladder surgery

Do they put surgery off if our Vitamins our out? Or ??

I'm day one and don't know how I'm going to do it but better things will come from surgery if I stick to it

FINALLY approved! I got a big packet from my surgeons office with post op diet info, but pre-op just says "only Clear Liquids the day before surgery". Does that mean I don't have a pre-op diet?? I'm not complaining, just confused lol.

Side note: February sleevers had a Facebook group. Would anyone be interested in a private group like that?

I'm also Australia in Tasmania! 24 march

Determination I guess. I'm having a gastric sleeve on march 24. How about yourself?

Launceston Tasmania Australia

March 24th good luck

I am on day 1 of the two week preop diet and I get three shakes a day and plain Water. NOTHING else. I am already starving. What day is your surgery? Mine is March 7th. Good Luck

Hey all finally got my date 24th march !! So scared and excited.

Start my pre op diet as of today for 4wks not looking forward to that

Any tips ? Or advice??

Oh really? I'm Launceston

Hey there, I am one week post-op.

A little background: I am 31, my BMI was 41, and I did not have any obesity-related diseases. So our cases may not make for good comparison.

What's the go with catheter do you have one or not?

I did not have a catheter.

What was your hospital stay?

About 30 hours. I walked almost immediately after waking up in my hospital room.

What was your operation time ?

I was told it was about 35 minutes.

Is there much scaring involved ?

Can't answer this one yet. I have 5 incisions: 2 are about 2"-2.5' long, the other 3 are less than an inch.

What was your operation time ?

Mine is expected to be 3hrs

My surgeon says I have to have a couple days in ICU after surgery because I have very seriously uncontrolled diabetes hence 1 of the reason for surgery because nothing else will control it as well as weight loss will all medications aren't working.
