Welcome to the other side!!

@Lala70 I had a food funeral and I ate everything I wanted. Enjoy this last moments and please please please drink lots of water for me. I miss drinking cold water. Hell I miss drinking water period because now water is very hard to drink. I get these awful cramps and I tried it cold and luke warm but nothing. My surgery date was 6/14 and I’m down 14.8

@jsteen I was sleeved on 6/14 and I will be on clear liquids for two weeks. For me water is the worst but the protein broth with additional unflavored isopure protein, jello and premiere clear (sweet) are my friends at the moment. The importance at this stage is to get in as much protein as you can so you don’t get weak. Oh and propel goes down a little okay as well

I was sleeved on 6/14 and I feel the same way towards water but sugar free jello and protein chicken broth with additional unflavored isopure is my best friend for now. Have you tried propel? It goes down a little better than water

I made ice pops with these also. Very sweet but good

Really! I found the sugar free to be sweet. Lol. My taste buds are so off but I’m on my 3rd day so that’s to be expected

Hi Pete surgery date June 14th 56 HW 282 pre-op: 268 SW: 259 CW: 256 GW: 165

Surgery was yesterday June 14th and I’m taking fluids right now and it’s horrible and feel so uncomfortable. I feel great until I drink or take a pain pill so now I’m on just Tylenol. I’ve been walking a lot because that makes me feel great. I wasn’t able to pass gas at the hospital until today I got into the car with my awful driving husband 😂😂😂lol. So that’s they plan when I stall at passing gas. Car ride around the corner 🚗 . I’m just so great full to have him take off and spend this journey with me from the beginning to the end. He did almost more than the nurses. Overall I have no regrets on day 2 let’s see what tomorrow brings.

@Disrey1991 Thank you 😬😬😬💃🏾💃🏾

I have you in my prayers and I have the same doubts about my surgery scheduled tomorrow. You got this!!! You’re going on the other side!!! I’ll see you there tomorrow

Thank you. I can’t wait to be on the other side ❤️

After reading all the early June post op sleevers it’s making me more excited for June 14th

Preop diet starts tomorrow and surgery sate is June 14th. Super excited

@bryn910. I ordered it. Thank you 🙏

I just brought my toddler plate and utensil set for when I start foods. I don’t know how to eat in smaller portions to be totally honest. I’ve been practicing. The struggle is real but so worth it. Surgery date June 14th ❤️

I’m not showing anything before surgery regarding only after in my pamphlet. However, I would avoid it two weeks before surgery. I’ve read that some patients have to do a twice week liquid and some like me have as little as 24hrs.

Ladybabs I will try it and keep you posted. I purchased the caramel and cookies and creme protein shake and I wanted to purchase a protein liquid.

Have any seen or tried this protein drink?

Same here. My husband and three close friends that experienced it or their family member had the procedure. Not sure how to handle explaining the weight loss after surgery but I’ll jump that bridge when I get there.

Great news!! My doctor told me I only have to do 24hrs of pre op fluid diet. Which is weird my old co worker had to do two weeks!! Buy hey I’m not complaining and neither is my husband. We both were afraid of my inner monster when I’m hungry. [emoji23]

Yesss!!!! Congrats [emoji323][emoji322]

Congrats. You’re close and I’m cheering for you. When do you start your preop diet? I noticed some people are lucky and only have to do 7 days. I have to complete 14 days [emoji30][emoji25]

It really hit me today when I told my manager why I was taking two weeks off [emoji51].
