I'm on day 5 of my liquid diet and last night I was super nauseous. It hit me a of a sudden and I just went to bed. Today has been better.

I was sleeved on 4/14 as well. First day was a little bumpy with gas and nausea but Im feeling much better today. Still in the hospital but I think they are going to discharge me today. Can't wait! Good luck to everyone.

My surgery is scheduled next week, April 23!! I am 1 week into the pre-op diet, and still feeling a bit hungry. I know I'm not drinking Water like I should, so I am pushing myself today.

Getting so excited! I am obsessed with looking at before & after photos! I am sure I'm not alone......lol

Today is 1 week since my surgery, not a lot of energy yet, but the only pain is from my staples and they come out on Tuesday!! Can't wait to go swimming.

I weighed myself this morning and have lost 25.5 pounds since starting the pre-op liquid diet!!!

I'm really happy the surgery is behind me and can't wait to lose more!!

Good luck to those whose time is close, the pain doesn't last forever, you CAN do it!!!!

Thanks for the encouragement. I was sleeved today and wasn't prepared for just how much it hurts. Very, very tired, too. Walking around is hard. So glad it is done, though.

@Jennicarn: each day the pain will be less and less....I didn't walk a lot in the hospital either. You'll notice a huge difference in your pain and gas a week from now.

Take care,

Lori

Had my preop labs, ekg and upper GI today [worst test ever lol]. Picked up my post op scripts, paid the surgeon and hospital, and submitted my leave paperwork. My regular scheduled days off are fri/sat so I'll pack my hospital bag then. I'm working up until Wednesday bc otherwise I'd go nuts at home but I'm so ready!!!!!!!!!!

      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! 😞
