I see that but this just so happens to be a quote I cherish and thought it was good for you to hear my sleeve sista. Moving on..... I'm with you tomorrow and you will have to kick my butt!

I'm having my sleeve done on the 21st. I'm so excited and I wish the day would hurry up and get here. I start my liquid diet on Friday the 7th. It seems like time is going by so slow..... Is anyone doing a video journal on Youtube? I am. My channel is VSGJean. I love watching videos of everyone's success stories. Let me know if you have a channel, I would love to watch and see your achievements.

My op is October 3rd and I am SOOOO looking forward to it! Does anyone know if smoking is bad for u before the surgery ? Should I stop now?

Smoking is bad PERIOD! My hospital won't operate on you unless you quit and pass a nicotine test. Why don't you take this opportunity to make yourself healthier all around and quit.

Officially made it thru a week of the pre op liquid diet... 2 more weeks to go!

That is scary. I hope you are okay now.

Yes, I am doing great now...thanks!

Hi everyone!

My date got changed again back to the 19th! Its ok with me though cuz it gives me a little more time to prepare But i do have a question that hopefuly someone here will be able to answer...all of the sudden i have been hit with really bad acid reflux and am not sure what to do with it!!! has anyone else experienced this before surgery and what did u do to help it???

FEELS way to go i made it through my first week well with a few cheats. that last two i didnt gain and i didnt lose. started back today. and it will be full liquids no oat meal today

feels thank for the support im ok now

scorp dont be so hard on me pls. i apprieciate your concern but i already felt bad. im over it now

I think someone needs to be hard on you. When you have the sleeve, especially for the first few months you will not be ABLE to eat that kind of food and if you do can lead to some serious issues. Think of this the next time you want to put some greasy fried chicken in your mouth. I know this is hard but you have to buckle down and say NO!!

Tomorrow I get my sleeve and out goes the gallbladder!! I am SO excited

Today is clear liquid which is a bit harder than the protein shakes etc. but I am so happy about surgery that it isn't bothering me!!

Good luck to you all. I will check in when I can

I've suffered from acid reflux for years. I take the Wal-mart brand(s) of Zantac 150mg times 2 and Prilosec 20.6mg every night. If it is bad during the day I will take two of the Prilosec. I also have Tums/Rolaids "smoothies". I usually don't have to eat the Rolaids, but if it's bad at night, they are nice to have. Just ask the Pharmacist what the prescription dosage is for the OTC meds. I hope that helps. I did take Nexium, but my crappy insurance told me to take OTC meds.

I hope you are feeling better.

I myself am worried as well. I came down with bronchitis. I started on the Z pack this past Friday and took the last one yesterday Tuesday. My surgery date is the 13th of Sept. I feel okay except I still have a cough. The cough is no to bad but it comes in episodes. Ugh!!!
