My surgery is May 15th. Start the pre op liquid diet Sunday...how are all the Mays holding up? I am doing ok...staying as busy as I can to pass the time. How is everyone else? Post and pre-op???

My NUT hates premier. She says that if you go ingredient by ingredient and calculate the amino acids you only get 8 grams of protein per shake. Many NUTs have written to the company repeatedly to tell them that they have false advertising but they will not change. Not sure if it true but I stay away from them. She says to add half a scoop of unflavored protein to it to beef t up and then you are good.

I am doing great so far. Just having trouble getting in all my liquids. Had a dizzy spell this morning, almost fainted, so Dr is thinking it is that I am a bit dehydrated & need to up my fluids.

My poor little tummy is full though!

Sleeve Guru - glad you are doing well! Waiting to hear too from beautifulnewme!!!!! I know she had her surgery yesterday and I'm waiting to hear that she is okay and doing well!!!!!!!

Huggies to my May Sleeve buddies! I go in a week from today!!!!! So very excited!

Would anyone like to make or join a May 2012 Sleevers group on facebook? Then we could all chat with each other on there, live chat if we wanted etc.?

I saw there is the option to make it a secret group too, so others could not see the group or who is in it. As I know not all of us have told all our facebook friends yet & may want to keep that under wraps.

Let me know & if there is enough interest I can set one up, or someone else can do that if they want.

You can find me on facebook too, if you want to add me as a friend... Sharon Ivanauskas.

That sounds great - espically if we could make it secret

Sounds really great. Yes, I have told everyone who is important to me but I'm FB friends with so many high school friends and even a couple of ex boyfriends that I would rather keep it secret.

yeah I'd love that. many friends and family know but TONS of people on facebook I don't really want knowing. let's try to figure out how to do it privately and I'm all in!

I just had surgery on Monday & am doing better than I thought I would now.

I'd join a FB group of one is started.

I also have a FB page for my blog if anyone wants to follow me there - http://www.facebook.com/MyGastricSleeveLife

Well Sleeve Guru - you gotta set up the FB now! LOL See what happens when you offer? LOL Huggies - hope you are feeling well!!!!!

Okay, I think to add you to the facebook group, I would need to be your friends. Unless anyone else knows how to do it another way?!

So maybe people can friend me on facebook & also send me a message saying that you want to join the May 2012 sleevers group. That way I will remember who is my sleeve friends! I will go set it up now!

id love to join all of you on fb as well.... just let me know how to find it

all the suggestions for the Protein was a big help..

Just search for me on facebook... Sharon Ivanauskas.

Then also send me a message saying you want to join the May 2012 sleevers group, that way I will know to add you!

As the group is secret you can't search for it, or you could, but it won't come up!
