Today is the day! Just a few short hours away from the beginning of a new life!! I can't wait!

I'm anxious. Btw my doctor doesn't put you on a special diet pre-surgery. I've been eating anything I want! Are you nervous? I think I'm most worried about comic atoms. Of all goes well, I think I can deal with anything.

Who is your surgeon? Mine is Dr. Wittgrove and he doesn't do the pre surgery diet also, your the only other person I've seen on here that doesn't have to do the pre surgery diet.

Going on day two of post op....if it weren't for the gas pains in my shoulder and neck, I wouldn't even know I had surgery! Except of course the obviousness that I can only drink a medicine cup full of fluids at one time and then feel almost painfully full! I'm so excited about the future now...still seems surreal that I had it done!

I went back to work today...5 days post op...would have gone back yesterday but my office was closed due to inclement weather. Literally feel 100% with the exception of my intake only being fluids lol. Sleeve=Best thing ever so far!

I am getting sleeved on 02/27/14...anyone else have the same surgery date? I'm excited but feeling pretty awful from Pre-op diet.

I got sleeved and double hernia repair on 2/28/14.

Anababy, How are you doing with your new sleeve?

Pretty good! Thank you for asking. I am so tired of the full liquid diet already and I have 2 more weeks before phase 3. I have lost 12lbs since surgery. How are you doing?

[crysclev 36]

I am right there with you on bored with full liquids! I want to chew something so bad! Lol...I've lost 21 lbs since before preop diet until now but 14 of it has been since surgery. I'm feeling back to normal with the exception of that small pinch of pain on the right upper side sometimes.

I eat special k Cereal with almond milk and that is somewhat satisfying.

[crysclev 36]

You are allowed cereal?! I'm so jealous! I'm literally on full liquids meaning nothing BUT liquids right now and very thin ones, no lumps etc. I want something crunchy so bad for some reason!

Yep as long as it is a mushy consistency.

[Anababy 16]

Ask your NUT if you can have it

[crysclev 36]

I definitely will ask! I have my 2 week post op appt. tomorrow so I will be drilling them on whether or not I can add items to my current menu. Right now it consists of drinkable yogurts or blended Soups with Clear Liquids. I will survive either way but I would love to have something else!

Hang in there!
