So I've been trying to hold it in, but I'm sooooooooo EXCITED that I'm getting sleeved on Thursday! I just had to shout it somewhere, lol. This is my first post on this site. :-)

Congratulations!

My date is November 12th. Can't wait! I hope the sleeve sisters from today went well!

I'm nov 12th too! I'm having a hard time trying to avoid the "last meal" syndrome. Do you have to do a pre op diet?

Yes hopper, 1 week liquid diet. You?

Two weeks, I start oct 29

Hopper is your diet clear liquid only? I'm calling tomorrow to see if I can do protein shakes along with clear liquids only?

Hey folks...I'm sleeved! Everything went well yesterday. Very little pain and no nausea, just really sleepy. I'm going for my barium swallow test soon. I hope it goes well so I can finally drink something. So far my recovery has been remarkably smooth. I hope it is/was for everyone here!

Congrats Gabby!!

I'm so happy for you. I can't wait for mine! I hope it is smooth like yours.

Hey KansasFan - I am on Protein drinks for two weeks. All clear liquids would be very hard.

For those of you who had surgery this week - how did it go?

Congratulations. Happy Sleeving!

Hi Everyone! Yesterday was a little rough for me, trying to get liquids in and all. Paranoid about dyhyrdration. Doing much better today got a lot more liquids down and I can even lay on my stomach for short periods of time (with only a little discomfort). Oh and I don't need the pain meds.

Gabby,

Sounds like you're doing really well considering the huge surgery you just had a couple of days ago! I hope I'm off pain meds 4 days after! But I'm sure you still feel a little rough. Good luck for continued comfort and success! Can't wait to hear more as time goes on!

How is everyone. I am starving! That's my only complaint. Can't wait to start some normal foods Thursday. I hope this is just head hunger.

How are all the Oct 18th peeps doing?
