Nope. That anesthesia knocked u smooth out. I'm really easy to rouse from it usually. But it does make me very nauseated.

The anesthesia makes me soooo sick. Hopefully the anti-nausia meds will work fine and no nausea.

Going to bed. Good luck to us sleevers tomorrow. I'll post soon as I'm able.

They were ProtiDiet Soups. Tomato and creamy chicken. The tomato was awful and pink, and the creamy chicken wasn't awful, but I'm not sure I could handle it. I'm just bummed cause they have 15g of Protein. I was so surprised, since the concentrate stuff is so good. Bahahahahahaha. That gave me a good lol. Cinnamon. Ha!

i have tried proti-stuff before in my pre-op....blech! i bought the puddings...well, i spent so much money on them and they are high in protein so im gonna figure out a way to use them. but definitely, i know now to just make regular food, and use the unflavored protein to add to it! i tried protidiet caramel pudding - made the cup of pudding, took a few bites. it was alright...if i can add something it might taste better, idk what tho...well, i ate half, then got a shower and when i came back, it was this nasty liquid something or other in the cup, like it completely lost its pudding texture!!

Gross! I haven't tried the pudding, I figure I'll just make my own or buy the cups. Hah. I do really love the protidiet concentrates that you add to Water. Most of the flavors are pretty good, and 15 easy grams of protein.

Thankfully I was able to try most of the protidiet stuff before buying a box of it. My doc has had a pick 7 packets of stuff for $9.

Maybe you can add extracts for flavor? They have coffee extract and cacao. I bet those would taste good with caramel.

I know! I'm sort of starting to get a tad anxious. But the excitement outweighs that for the most part. It's me and Leigh Anne tomorrow. All the people today are leading the pack this week and I bet they do great.

It's so nice to have a bunch of people going through this together and all being sleeved so close together. I love it!

Me too. You feel less alone. Your friends make you stronger and it makes you feel good to be there for them and know they are cheering you on as well. It's so great to actually talk to someone who honestly knows what you're going through and creates a sort of kinship.

Oh yeah. If I had been more active on this site last year when my band was removed I am sure I would have done the band to sleeve in the same surgery. But I am glad I went about it this way. I didn't feel trapped or forced in to anything. I didn't tell my husband or my mom until I had an appointment to go see my surgeon to ask him questions about it. I got to ask questions on this app/site and get to research as much as I can find.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!
