Are there any others who are getting sleeved on December 4th?



Recommended Posts

Hi!

I am starting my pre-op diet on November 20th and have surgery scheduled with Dr. Landerholm of Puget Sound Bariatrics in Edmonds, Washington on December 4th. Are there any sleeve sisters or brothers out there also scheduled for December 4th? Would love to have some buddies to check in with along the way. :)

I am on a high protein/low carb diet - only 40 grams of carbs per day. :) It is supposed to shrink the liver. What kind of pre-op diets are you all on? I start tomorrow morning!

I am on a high Protein liquid diet. I can only have Protein Shakes, sugar free Jello, sugar free Popsicle, and Water or clear liquid drinks like broth. I drink 3 protein shakes per day, 3 Popsicles and I have hot and sour Soup from the Chinese restaurant, the broth off of it taste great. It's a struggle but my headache is gone and I feel a lot better today.

I started mine Monday - very similar to Lisa's. It is a struggle. But I am resolute.

I have my sleeve scheduled for December 2nd! I started my pre-op on Friday even though dr didnt require until Tuesday but I knew the first few days were rough and i didnt want to do that and be at work. I tried powders?utm_source=BariatricPal&utm_medium=Affiliate&utm_campaign=CommentLink" target="_ad" data-id="1" >unjury chicken Soup flavor protien powder for the first time today and YUMMO was like a warm Soup of soup versus a sweet protien shake. I also love the Muscle Max pro max powder in Tiramisu and strawberry. It has 30 grams per scoop and is super smooth. So far I am down 9 pounds.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
