Hello to all. My surgery is tomorrow I have to be at the hospital at 10:00am. I'm nervous and sad at the same time. Sad that I'm losing most of my stomach. Please pray for me that I have a easy recovery. I'm ready to begin my new life.

Hey all!! My surgery was 5/5/5, so I am exactly 1 week post op!! Feeling pretty darn good!! It is challenging getting my fluids in. Today I start full liquids and just had my first sip of my protein shake. How is everyone else doing???

Having the sleeve may 13 so tomorrow actually so excited but nervous I hate to be put to sleep

I'm having band > sleeve w/ hernia repair in the morning at 7:30 am

I. Ooh yes! Something not liquid and on a spoon!!!

My surgery date is May 28 th. Starting to get a little anxious now. Had pre op lab work done today. I will be seeing my surgeon on the 19 th and a class at his office then go to the hospital to see the anesthesia department. I am in the process now of trying different protein shakes to see what's tolerable. Which ones have you all found that you like?

Good luck Val, but you don't need it, you'll be just fine. Still, I'll be sending supportive energies your way for a swift recovery.

Hi, My surgery date is May 28th! If anyone has had surgery in the last couple of weeks - can you give some details on - pain, diet, how much weight you have lost, etc.... Any information that you could give of what to expect would be great!! thanks!

I'm having the procedure on 5/28 too. I have a preop class on the 19th too. I met with my surgeon last week.

I like the Premier Protein drinks. My fave is the strawberries and cream but my daughter in law likes the chocolate and vanilla.
