Dogmom68 thank you for your kind words. I am home and feeling a bit better. I am still very very weak. Took a shower first thing this morning s ofc that made me feel better, Gonna just have to take it slow and steady. Also guys I will aslo be popping over to the post-op forum hope to see you all here and there.. Much Love Strength and many pounds down

So glad to hear your doing well. I can't handle warm liquids just cold ones.

I had my sleeve as well on Feb 9. I am currently still in the hospital on Sat Feb 13. I have suffered severe nausea and dry heaves all through out the days. Today I feel good ate almost all my cream of chicken and pudding. Got all my skim milk down. Am excited for Dr to come in so I can finally go home

Tomorrow is the BIG DAY. Am excited but nervous as well. Looking forward to the NEW me and this next chapter in my life. I have to go have a Covid test today. Will be glad when I get to say it's done

My surgery is on Feb 9th have tobe there at 6am. I also am not doing pre-op diet. As I am barely over the bmi requirement. with other health issues I had to be over 30BMI and I am literally at 30.14 so they told me not to do the pre-op. I am 5'6" and weight 218

Fortunately everyone at my Dr's Office is wonderful and on top of everything. As a matter of fact since I am just barely over the BMI to haevemy surgery they have instructed me today that I will not be doing the 1 week pre-op diet. I just have to do the clear liquids the day b4 surgery

Don't give up!!. Insurance companies are crazy. My dr had alrdy gotten the approval for mine. They told me from the beginning that he wouldnt have called me back on for my 2nd appt if they hadn't. Sounds to me like you have a great husband there Don't stop losing weight. Even if that means you have to wait an extra month or 2. Do this for yourself friend. I have faith in you and I know you can over come a lot of the crude the insurance is trying to throw at you. If you just need to vent cry scream or yell give me a shout out..

They already got all the approvals. SO am hoping it is starting weight.

I go to the office on Feb 1st so I am going to make sure how they do it. Also hospital called me and it is for sure Feb 9th surgery is 7:30am and need to check in at 6am

Is there a reason your only having to do the liquid only for 2 days? I have my physical/final visit with Dr on Feb 1st as my surgery is Feb 9 and I have some questions. I am barely over the BMI required to have this surgery but due to a extremely large list of other health problems I am in need of this surgery. So I am scared if I do this diet for 1 entire week i will be under the needed BMI. Anyone else had or have this issue?

I learned in a support class just yesterday that it is VERY Important that you do not beat yourself up over failures. It of the utmost importance that you BELIEVE in yourself that you will succeed. I have faith in you and you should have faith in yourself.

I am also a newbie on this site but I am having my Gastric Sleeve on Feb. 9th of this yr. I am very excited but also a bit nervous. Looking forward to the new me
