I just had the surgery on 07/14/21 I’m sooo hungry. I was hoping someone had ideas for me besides jello. Can I have sugar free candy? I’m dyeing for just a few chips?

Hi everyone. I’m getting nervous and excited and alone. Is anyone in Sf or Bay Area that can be of support? I’m a few days away from sergery and feel as if I’m in this alone. Family are all just eating away like nothing. Husband is clueless. Not taking the day off. And grown kids are having a cook out…I have no healthy friends and I am brand new to all of this. Are there any local support groups? Any advice? 3 days and counting and I’m so irritated. 😊still happy and blessed 😇 sorry I had to dump this out tks

Hi Bee. Thank you for reaching out. Unfortunately I do not jog but I definitely need a accountability buddy too. I have not worked out or jogged for many years. I need to start by joining a gym. Or something 😃??

Hi. I’m doing ok. How about you?

Hi everyone. My surgery date was 07/14. I am now on a reg diet and just introducing new/old foods again. My highest weight:252 current weight: 212. I guess I’m ok except I had a hernia that I needed emergency surgery 2 weeks ago . Ahhh why didn’t they remove that when I got my sleeve?? Uuugg

Wow sounds great! So happy for you! My sleeve was on 07/14 . I haven’t really lost much since surgery date but I think it’s because I cheated on my liquid phase. How’s your pain level? I’ve been a lil disappointed at my self but it seems like I’m always hungry. Do you have any snack tips?

Wow. I’m glad I’m not the only one. I also feel hungry all the time. I have had smaller portions but I basically did the liquids for less than a week. Purées less than a week and now two weeks after surgery I am struggling to take shakes and I’m sooo tired of soup all ready. I feel like I have failed big time. I had a tuna sandwich. With 2 pieces of bread and a lil of avocado and cheese and I felt like I was going to die after. Now I’m back to liquids lol but still feel like a wreck.

Hi. Don’t be so hard on your self. I cheated too and I’m sure a lot of others have too. If you look up other programs, they all do things differently. Try to stick to your plan but don’t be negative. No one is perfect.

Good morning everyone. Had my surgery on 07/14/21. I’m feeling hungry still . Soar and I can’t wait to start feeling better

Hi I had mine on the 14th and I’m struggling with pain and also hunger. Is there a good snack out there ? Besides jello?

July 14 th here. I still have a lot of pain getting out of the bed is this normal? Also, I haven’t been able to sleep for more than an hour at a time

Hi I’m home now . Spent one night at standford hospital and now back home. I feel sick, can’t really get out of bed without screaming and I’m sooo hungry. My stomach is growling and water plus shakes are not helping. Any ideas’ ?

Hi Jennifer good luck to you. Today is our day!

Thank you Candace76! I will keep you posted

Hi I’m waiting for my surgery right now. Today 7/14/21. I’m scared and nervous and excited

Thank you for your kind words. Your right I will just tell him how I feel. And it’s good to hear from someone who knows. Thank you

Hi I’m new here. I have never chatted with others about sergery and I’m not sure who’s available or even how to chat. Lol my sergery is in 3 weeks.

Thanks I’m feeling so much better. I don’t feel the need to hurry and eat things now. I’m glad I will see everything again and don’t have to do a funeral

Hi everyone I am scheduled for surgery July 14 so that means in about one week I will start my liquid diet I’m just wondering if there’s things I should do or stuff I should eat and enjoy before my surgery ?? is there anything that you wish you had done that you could give me advice on ? Will I be able to have a normal life the first 30 days or is it more like being on bed rest? Should I go on a mini vacation? Go out to eat every day? thank you

Wow thanks for the tips. Your a good role model although I don’t think I’ll be doing too many miles in the hospital. I’m starting to get nervous just trying to prepare
