Why are they different? Sent from my SM-G935V using BariatricPal mobile app

That's great, I hope i have an easy recovery as well. I think I'll be the same way, as far as the eating and drinking goes. I struggle with drinking enough now. I can't say that I blame you for not sharing ur weight loss surgery qith anyone from work. I shared mine with the people i work with and regret doing so. I'm in dental an work for a small private practice so i felt I didn't really have a choice. One girl even told me I was taking the easy way out and if I got skinny she was going to hate me...like I care about that lol! I told her it wasn't "if" it was going to be "when".

I'm in Tennessee. I moved here from Cali! I lived in Hanford Sent from my SM-G935V using BariatricPal mobile app

See what I mean...it all depends on the dr. Where do u live? Sent from my SM-G935V using BariatricPal mobile app

I'm glad everything went well! The preop is extreme but if u notice it is different from person to person. I guess it depends on the Dr. Hell my nutritionist said I coukd eat grilled chicken and salads and protein bars on my liquid diet. I had to remind her that I was on a liquid diet. She assured me she knew and I'd be fine! Sent from my SM-G935V using BariatricPal mobile app

I'm sure it will be ok.....thank you! Sent from my SM-G935V using BariatricPal mobile app

Any complications from the burger? Did they say they found traces of beef in there? Sent from my SM-G935V using BariatricPal mobile app

Lol that's exactly what I thought! When was ur surgery? Sent from my SM-G935V using BariatricPal mobile app

They told me at my preop appt to do the mag citrate the afternoon before surgery. Sent from my SM-G935V using BariatricPal mobile app

Yes I have a bowel prep otherwise I wouldn't have considered eating the pizza! My surgeon didn't say anything about clear liquids the day before surgery just nothing to eat or drink after 8 pm Sent from my SM-G935V using BariatricPal mobile app

I've stayed course until today and the pizza broke me...my surgery is tomorrow, I have to be at the hospital at 8am [emoji2] Sent from my SM-G935V using BariatricPal mobile app

At least urs was still a liquid lol! I figured the pizza wasn't going to make a difference in the size of my liver this close to surgery....i hope! Sent from my SM-G935V using BariatricPal mobile app

I confess....i cheated on my liquid diet and ate pizza for lunch! [emoji22] Sent from my SM-G935V using BariatricPal mobile app

Funny how we stress over things...im having my surgery on tuesday and I'm not stressing over anything that I don't have or things that I need or even the things that could go wrong... I'm stressing over the IV! I can't stand needles and this is my biggest worry lol[emoji39] Sent from my SM-G935V using BariatricPal mobile app

That person sounds like the dumbass that I work with. She told me yesterday how she thought it was the easy way and she didn't think it was right to starve your body to be skinny! I wanted to b***h slap her as well. Sent from my SM-G935V using BariatricPal mobile app

Well that's good! My Dr wants 10 days of liquids Sent from my SM-G935V using BariatricPal mobile app

Congrats... that's great! How much did u lose before surgery? Sent from my SM-G935V using BariatricPal mobile app

Congrats on getting sleeved! How are you feeling? Sent from my SM-G935V using BariatricPal mobile app

I'm doing the same thing. My Dr warned me about constipation as well! Ummmmm....not happening here! Sent from my SM-G935V using BariatricPal mobile app

I'm on the 15th too Sent from my SM-G935V using BariatricPal mobile app

Im worried about gaining with this preop diet as well. They say the purpose of the preop diet is to shrink ur liver before having the surgery. How much weight did u gain? Sent from my SM-G935V using BariatricPal mobile app

I told the people i work with only because I work at a small private practice dental office and me taking off affects everyone. Some were very supportive and happy for me while other were not. The ones who weren't were the ones who gave me the list of negatives about the surgery. These are also the ones who are also overweight themselves and for some reason won't consider the surgery. One of them even said it was because food was the only thing she had in common with her husband...i just figured for every negative they gave me i would give them a positive. In the end it is up to you on whether you want to be healthy. Only you know what you've tried in the past to lose the weight only to have that plus some come back. Don't make your decision on having this surgery based on what others say. Make it on what you know you've gone through to make you consider the surgery in the first place! You've got this and most importantly you've got us! [emoji3] I'm getting sleeved on 5/15 at 2:30 pm and I can not wait!![emoji2] Sent from my SM-G935V using BariatricPal mobile app
