congrats to all of the September sleevers. My sleeve was done September 1st and all is well. I read a post that said they splurged this past weekend with there husband and only need to do a clear liquid diet a couple of days before her surgery. I thought that too, but when I did my research I discovered that it should really be two weeks on Clear Liquids diet. But that time period had pasted for me, so I did a clear liquid diet the week before surgery. I have a girl friend and she and I went through this journey together. She only did the clear liquid for two-days before her surgery and her liver was much larger than mine and her surgery was longer because of it. I would suggest at least do the clear liquid for one week before the surgery. Just my two cents...... Good luck to ALL....

liquid diet day one! It's not so bad but I just feel disconnected. My thoughts aren't very clear. Maybe I'm just tired. Is it the 22nd yet?

I am at the hospital, all gowned up, and ready to go! :-)

Sure hope I don't have a lot of nausea after sutgery.

And God, if you're listening, could you make sure I don't like sugar anymore. ..thanks! ;-)

I was sleeved September 1st and oddly I felt no pain from the surgery. However I had the worst acid reflux and one of my incisions opened today which was scary.

Sorry to learn that. Wow! I hope you have a speedy recovery.

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
