Hi Nikki. I'll be a month out on the 4th. I wish you the best of luck!!

Thanks!! I'm getting so excited! I have a super busy weekend planned which will make it go by even faster!!

How are you handling things?

Yes 2 more days! I'm so nervous lol

I'm sure we will both be fine! I'm more excited than nervous! However driving to the hospital and waiting to go back will probably kill me!! Lol

Things are good. Just physically drained, no energy. Lack of food, but exercising is taking its toll. Other than that I am down 45 Lbs.

I got a ride. Once there I was so busy with everything they were doing I didn't have a much time to dwell on what was going on.

Yes 2 more days! I'm so nervous lol

Best of luck!!!

45 pounds is awesome!! I am definitely worried about the no energy. I have a demanding job in that aspect. I took an extra 2 weeks off work to get my stuff together.

Just saying hi 2 months and 42lbs down.

What do you do (work)? I only took 9 work days off. People thought I was crazy, But i had to go back just to stay busy. Being drained is most likely my own fault, I tend to push myself. Ex. they couldn't keep me in the hospital bed. I was up walking laps around nurses station. Kept teasing me saying I was training for a marathon. lol

I was sleeved 2/12, amd the first 2 weeks I had no energy at all. Now I am on creamed food and I have noticed the change in my energy. Just make sure you pack your creamy Soups right. For example, I do cream of broccoli, spinach, and watercress. Helps A LOT. Best of luck!

I'm a Paramedic. I was originally going to take 2 weeks off, but I know that my first call would require some weird twisting/lifting/positioning and I didn't want to risk it. Plus I do a lot of lifting and I don't want to go back feeling too weak. 12 hour shifts can be rough!

I think cream soups are considered "thick liquids" per my surgeon. I'm required to get 80-100 ounces of thin liquids plus 90 grams of Protein in for 2-3 days BEFORE moving to thick liquids.

The "what not to eat" list has me nervous. I don't want to make myself sick or do what I'm not supposed to do...

A paramedic....wow that sounds fun, thrilling and exciting! Bet you have some awesome stories.

Don't worry about what not to eat too much. It's good to be aware of them things, but realistically I couldn't get them in anyway. 3 bites of cottage cheese and I'm full. lol. My thing has been I forget to eat/drink. That blows me away! food is no longer a priority for me...it's become very secondary.

My diet consists of.... cottage cheese, mozzerella cheese, Protein shakes, sugar free pudding/jello, soaked peaches/pears/apples (no skin), tuna and salmon in Water only, and sugar free water enhancers (several flavors). Oh and beef / chicken broths warmed. Broths were great first week.
