Leave your comments below if you want to be friended into the July 31 sleever club! And give up something that is making you excited and something making u nervous. Me? Having the time off of work and coming back drastically changed and the drainage tube being pulled out. I had one with gall bladder surgery and that is the worst pain I have ever felt....

Had a good pretty restful night. About to go for my leak test soon. Let's hope all is well and I can start having ice chips!

They did my leak test at the end of surgery yesterday. So I just had to wait about 6 hours to drink anything.

Im hoping for broth soon ..goodluck everyone ..and prayers for quick recovery

How are all the July 31st sleevers doing?

Lots of pain and nausea ..had Lapband removal, hineria fixed and sleeve put in

I'm so nauseated can't get water down but I can tolerate jello and Italian icee I stop my pain meds. I will be going home tomorrow

Italian ice sounds yummy..my tummy cant tolerate cold stuff to well.lucky you, lets decide we will be back on our feet soon!

I am at home tonight and smell of any food upsets my stomach. I do need to get more SF Popsicles and may try the Italian ice. All I can get down right now is water... Trying to stay hydrated. My doctor wants me to start trying shakes tomorrow...

Im so tired of protien shakes. Seems to be the only food that's easy besides broth. Sipping water.yay! Even that seems a struggle

I have only been given water and diluted apple juice. Doing ok except for gas pains. They won't let me use gas-X strips I brought. Ugh!

It gets better when you can go home and use your own stuff

I have only been given Water and diluted apple juice. Doing ok except for gas pains. They won't let me use gas-X strips I brought. Ugh!

Why won't they let you use gas x?

Where do you get gas x strips at?

I also think i am starting to get thrush, any idea what I need to do to stop it while I am ahead?

The only thing to stop thrush is to get an oral medicine from your doctor..you must have a prescription

You can get gasx strips at the pharmacy
