Impatiently waiting...June sleevers?



Recommended Posts

I had my endoscopy this morning. I was freaking out for nothing, it was a breeze.

So that was it, the last thing on my list is checked off and I just have my final weigh-in on June 15th! Then they'll finally submit everything to insurance and I'll get to meet with the surgeon and get my date!!!

Day 2 of pre-op diet. Surprisingly not even craving sweets. It's national donut day and I was able to walk past them at work and not even flinch. Can wait for June 18t to get here. Ready for my sleeve and my new life!

I am being sleeved on June 18th as well. Day 5 of my pre-opt diet. Have done pretty well so far. Had a mental warfare day on Wednesday but stuck to the plan.

I walked into work today and the lady in line in front of me (we have to go through security) was holding 2 giant boxes of dounts for National Donut Day. I didn't even entertain the thought of cheating. YAY ME!! There might be some will power left in me after all :)

I am ready for my sleeve and my new life as well. Good luck to you.

How are you doing Beth?

Better each day. Strained one of my incisions on the first night home (day after surgery) by trying to get into my bed - which is significantly lower than the hospital bed was. I've been sleeping in my chair/ottoman for 2 nights now. Just reached for something and it didn't hurt - so there's progress there. Got 92g Protein and 62oz fluids in yesterday (day 3) so I think that's kicking it! Also walked "laps" around my downstairs. Each one takes about a minute and I keep having to add furniture to circle around so they continue to take a minute as I'm speeding up. Anyway, did 52 laps altogether yesterday. Hoping all this pays off and I'm off these pain meds soon.

Only 3 more days until I start my pre-op liquid diet. I can't believe how fast time has gone by since I got my surgery date booked.

Day 4 of pre-op diet. It was tough yesterday as my parents insisted on going out to eat lunch. (my pre-op is 30-40 carbs a day) Thankfully I found a great grilled shrimp ceasar salad with dressing on the side. So far so good. June 16th, here I come.

@@thecamiraye, @@Java91, I'm nervous too. Thought I might be there only one! My surgery is planned for June 12. What helps me the most is looking at before and after pictures. I know it's going to be difficult, this pre-op diet sure is! My sister told me to write down all the reasons I have for losing weight, and keep it in my pocket, on the fridge and other places, so when I'm tempted I can look at it and keep inspired. (She's lost 50lbs w/diet pills) anyway, thought that was a great idea. I can use all the help I can get!! :)

      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!
