I had a rough night woke up couldn't breathe, coughing and scared. I used the breathing thing and moved to the sofa I felt a little better but not sure what that was.

I woke up today and am happy to see some of the swelling in my abdomon has gone down! I know some of you had a drain but I did not.

All required liquid and Protein haven't been a problem so I am thrilled!!

The nurse said maybe acid reflux since I don't have a fever or pain.

So its been 6 days since surgery and last night while at dinner with friends i was sitting there sipping on my Water usually I'll drink 4-6oz and be full while I drank probably about 12 oz and felt like I could keep going then this morning I was sipping on warm milk and drank 10 oz I was full after but is this normal since I was only able to sip a little and be full should I be worried is this normal?

They say Water goes right thru the sleeve. I bet the past few days you were swollen and it had harder time going down. Now swelling is down. And I wouldn't worry when u introduce a little thicker stuff it doesn't slide down so fast. That is why they don't want any fluids 30 minutes after u eat. That's my thoughts anyway. Ha

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!
