  • I confirmed on Monday, March 2 going to get sleeved!

  • Hi Everyone. I apologize I have not been on. I had my surgery on Monday and had my IV's in for my liquids and pain meds. Day 2 was rough for me. I could not handle sips of water or oral pain meds. Eve

What a lucky day!! ;-)

I am scheduled a week from today, on March 23rd, for my sleeve. Excited and nervous at the same time.

Well, 3 days of this all liquid diet and then....SURGERY! Nervous, excited, struggling, feeling a little down...i want a steak, a peanut butter & jelly sandwich, pringles, pizza, etc., etc., etc. HOWEVER....i have to continuously remind myself of all the benefits! Good luck to us all!

@fortknow78 thanks for that I am 3 days in also my surgery is the 23rd. You got my screaming over here my co worker asked me if i was ok. I am not hungry for the most part its a mind over matter situation i woke up smelling PIZZA YES PIZZA. I am extremely nervous so I understand.

Day One of preop diet and started with preop tests. Came home and did my shake. Here we go...

Good morning. Day one of pre-op diet. So far so good... LOL.

@@LaLa Lady & @@purrfctangel you will be ok ladies I'm on day 4 started friday first 2 days i thought i was gonna catch a case and be in handcuffs lol it has gotten better now when a hunger urge start i eat a carrot or drink some broth good luck ladies

Today is the official start of my liquid diet. I already drank 2 shakes, I got 3 more to go. I'm trying not to think about food. I'm drinking water to satisfy some of the hunger and keeping very busy. I'm not going to worry, I got this. WE ALL GOT THIS!!!

The first three days are the worst, but I promise it gets better! I was hungry & grumpy. I had to leave the room a few times when my husband & kids were eating, but your hunger gets less and less especially if you are drinking enough fluids. My liver shrinking diet was ordered for two weeks and I have just a few days left! My surgery is Thursday. Good luck & you can do it!

@@LaLa Lady @@MaryC94 We are all in this together. One shake down, going to the gym. It's like we're boarding the plane to our new life.

One more day! I'm getting nervous now..

Jealous of all you that only have 4-5 days of liquids. I'm so over liquids.
