Thanks ! Im At 120 now. I did two walks around the unit. Most likely I’ll meet goal around the evening . I’m just pacing myself

the nausea comes in waves

That's awesome you made a few laps and were able to tolerate more liquid. Hope you're able to go home tonight but if not, you're where you're supposed to be.

Morning everyone I had my sleeve yesterday 10/13 and I’m currently in hospital. Gassy and nauseated are my main symptoms . Besides that my pain is not as bad just being managed. I have to walk around today. I couldn’t do it last night .

You did it! Yay! I have til the 20th. Surgeon had to delay a week and my surgery time keeps changing on the daily but it's almost here! What are they doing for the gassy feeling?

I was originally scheduled for Oct 13th but got pushed back a week to Oct 20th!!!!! That's another while week on the pre-op diet!! I keep telling myself I can do hard things and this really isn't all that hard BUT STILL, it's the dang principle.

im bringing a long charger, portable charger, headphones, chapstick, blanket, socks, light clothes to change, maybe a book or magazine

Chapstick, YES girl! Totally would have overlooked that important necessity.

Where are you located? I'm in Nebraska.

I feel you! Does your program allow meals at all? mine lets me eat 4 oz of lean Protein and veggies for dinner, and an egg or turkey slice for a snack. What I do is 3 shakes, space out 120 oz of liquid throughout the day and then dinner.

what are you bringing in your hosp bag?

Yes, one meal of 3 oz Protein, 2 1/2 cups of non starchy veggies and 3 Protein Shakes throughout the day and around 100oz of Water. I've been doing that same, three shakes and then dinner for my solids.

Gosh, I haven't even thought about that. Lol! My surgery center is 125 miles away and have been waiting on the insurance approval (which should come today as it's been two weeks since it was received).

What are you planning to bring? I suppose light weight clothes, phone and charger, bathroom stuff....I'm sure I am forgetting more.

Hey yall! October 13 here! On day 4 of my pre-op diet !

Same dates for me too! It's crazy to be drinking soooo much and yet so thirsty at the same time. I feel like my bladder is hating me right now but feeling great overall.

Happy early birthday!

Scheduled for Oct 13th
