    We are all nervous before hand. It is a major surgery! I am two weeks out from my gastric sleeve and sometimes I am still nervous. The surgery is not terribly painful. Probably the first three days

    We are all nervous before hand. It is a major surgery! I am two weeks out from my gastric sleeve and sometimes I am still nervous. The surgery is not terribly painful. Probably the first three days is the worst on pain. For me the hard part is that I am soooooo thirsty and before surgery I would just guzzle a bottle or two of Water, that is impossible now unless I want to throw up. You have to take small drinks and sips. Things will get brighter!

    Thanks everyone. I have my EGD Friday and next week I start my 14 day liquid diet, 4 shakes a day only....it'll be hard but I know totally worth it. I'm researching everything I can now.
