January sleevers are youd ready?

I spent a few hours at the stores getting gasx chewable vitamins broth whey protein powder and jello. I have been on a liquid diet since monday and full liquids since saturday. I am doing well, I thought I would starve to death but i havent the oral fixation is the hardest to fight. I can cook for my family but in my head im thinking i need a taste. I find putting jello down my throat curbs this. I already have my meal in mind for when i am off liquids...steak and goat cheese with veggies low carb amd delicious :). How are u all doing?

My surgery is in 4 days and I'm completely ready mentally. I do have to go to the store for some skim milk and SF popsicles, but I pretty much have all of my other supplies and am mostly packed for the hospital. I have been doing well on the pre-op diet, but for some reason, yesterday (day 9) was the most difficult--had to have some broth and SF jello in addition to the protein shakes and salad to make it through the day. Today seems better. Best of luck to you!

Thank you for the support and to you the same just think tommorrow this time we will be working towards the new us :).....my surgeon requires full clear liquid 5 days post op nothing but sf jello broth whey protein mix only with water and sf popsicles. I wish could have a sald :)

I having surgery tomorrow. Finalized all shopping to make sure I needed nothing! House is clean and I am ready ! Very excited. Only worried about nausea and vomiting. Seems scary. Hope I will not need to find out. Good luck to all of us! Weeks from now it will seem like a dream. ;)

Hi January Sleevers! I am one year today and I want to tell you, YOU CAN DO IT!! I wouldn't change a thing. The first few weeks are the hardest. Once you are on regular food, it gets easier. Keep walking and sipping water right after surgery. It will help with the gas. Once home, walk, walk, walk!!

Remember!! YOU CAN DO IT!! Have faith in yourself!!

Inbox me if you all have any questions! I will be happy to support all of you in any way!!

Sounds like you'll do great. I had a lot of anxiety before my surgery, but the night before and morning of a calm came over me. And everything came out just fine. It will for you, too!

Thank you for this encouragement. I can sure use some. I am almost 3 weeks post op. Im having a really hard time today. I want food. Still on liquids though. Go to dr on tues and might get to start on cottege cheese and greek yogurt. Hopefully that will be better. Please tell me this gets easier.

I'm getting sleeved on Wednesday the 23rd. Today was day four of the liquid diet and it was much better than the first 3 days. I can't wait to get to surgery!
