I'm scheduled for 2/6/14. Who else is getting sleeved in February?

How are you doing SuperFab?

Better little by little. I feel like I've been his by a truck. Lol

Good Luck SJ!!!

I think I'm the last one this month to get sleeved. Anyone else getting sleeved on the 28th?

MAJOR SET BACK...

I went for my pre-admin testing on Monday, surgery scheduled for 2/24/14, because it was discovered that I have walking pneumonia (in a nut shell I was jumping through hoops all day and night because there were thoughts of something more serious) So here it is now Wed. and I think I have come to the resolution that there must have been a reason that I was not to be a Feb 2014 sleever. But I have not given up hope that one day I will be healthy, I have been tentatively set for mid April. I want to thank you all for the support and wish you all a successful journey my mantra is "I may not be where I want to be, but I'm closer today than yesterday" . Thanks for all the support!

Yes!!

Yep I had to take that for pain at the hospital. It was disgusting and I couldn't through it back like a shot!

I struggle with more than two ounces of shake at a time. I have gotten maybe 6-8oz of shake in a day max which is only 30 grams of protein.

I drink the isopure shakes those aren't as thick as other protein shakes and I add plenty of ice and water and make them with skim milk

Good luck SJ!!! And update when u can We are here for ya when u need us.

How are you doing super fab?

On my way to the hospital. Late, but I wouldn't be me if I wasn't running late!

So sorry to hear this, Rosemary. I pray you have a quick recovery and are re-scheduled ASAP! Keep us updated, even if you aren't a Feb/March sleever anymore. <3

Does anyone else use the app My Fitness Pal for tracking protein and food? My nut suggested it yesterday and it's pretty cool. I'm getting more protein than I had thought. Here's a typical day on the full liquid diet:

Light yoplait banana yogurt w vanilla protein powder(took 45 mins to eat)

4 oz protein shake (milk+unjury+carnation)

1/2 cup cream of chic soup w protein powder

1/2 cup FF cottage cheese

1/2 cup cream of chic soup w protein powder

DQ sugar free Fudgesicle (yummy!!)

Between eating every two hours and trying to get the water in between food and then the calcium chews and vitamins I feel like I'm always trying to get something down! But I was down 15 lbs at my first week follow up!! Yay!!

OMG that pain syrup in the hospital was awful! I had to plug my nose to get it down. Good news was the prescription I filled after discharge had some cherry flavor and wasn't quite as bad.

How are you doing super fab?

Been dry heaving and nauseous all day, but still walking loops. Lol
