Had to change my date to the 16th feeling sad but it is only a week away! ???? Trying to find some positivity in my new date!! I know at least I can enjoy my husband for Valentine's Day!

Just keep positive. Like you said you get to have Valentine’s Day, I take these things as it must

be meant to be. Good Luck :)

I agree, I'm home from the hospital now, and just resting. I'm currrently on the clear liquids diet post op.

I am so excited for you. I am on day 5 of the pre op Liver Reduction Diet.

Like you I am excited and scared….lol. Keep sipping away.

@VGB

Im sure the delay is disappointing! I truly believe there is a reason for everything. Due to insurance changes where I work my date was changed also, making me wait 3 months! Now it is almost here and looking back I'm glad I was delayed! I have a much better grip on mental hunger! So now we will be having ours on the same day! Will keep you in my prayers.

P.S. As for that Valentines day thing.... I'll be having with lots of non food related fun with my hubby too!

Take care! We are almost there!!

@Marge1927 & @borg/assimilated Congratulations! Hope you guys are doing well!

I was sleeved on Wednesday! Still working through some pain (gall bladder came out too) but starting to feel better!

Good Luck,,I have my surgery Monday

3 days out! Yea!!!

Good Luck,,I have my surgery Monday

That's great! I'm so happy for you!

Had my surgery Tuesday. Omg the gas pains. They were so horrible for me. I literally was like what did I just do to myself. But little by little I'm getting through it. This was my first ever surgery so I'm sure that played apart in my thinking. But doing so much better today.(Friday) feeling more energized, concentrating on getting more liquids in.

Hi February sleevers

I had my surgery on Monday morning. Waking up from surgery was difficult, quite a bit of pain and nausea. Thankfully, things are much better now. I was wondering how much liquids are you being able to get every day? Yesterday (4 days post op) I did 45 liquids and 60 grms. protien. I am really trying to get to 60 today. I have my follow up appointment Tuesday and the Dr. will not move me to pureed foods until I get 60ml of liquid a day. Just the thought of being in Clear Liquids for a another week makes me sick. Honestly, the clear liquids parts has truly been the hardest part of all the process so far. Thank you for all your responses and best of luck!

I had my surgery on Thursday and I was prepared for the worse (just in case). So far it has been best. They had me

walking in the recovery room, not much but back and forth a couple times. When I got to my room, I walked whenever

I could. What a difference, got rid of a lot of gas that way (both ends). I gained 4 pounds from the IVs they had me

hooked up to but that is just Water weight. After all the fear of the unknown, I am thrilled so far. I am not saying I don’t

have pain but it isn’t as bad as I had thought, what I have I can live with. It should be getting better every day.

Good luck to all the February Sleevers. :rolleyes:
