Lol yes me too. I used my nutribullet to blend lentil soup. That and organic fruit pops have helped but I know my protein intake is low....count down for us though!!!

I'm tomorrow too. Can't wait. Just trying to keep busy. Been on the two week pre-op diet and clears all day today. Ready to be on the other side. Good luck to everyone tomorrow. ????

Good Luck to you all. Please check in with us tomorrow. Excited in a few short hours you all will have the surgery behind you and on to a healthier life. Congrats.

Today is the day. On my way to the hospital need to be there by 5:30am. Well wishes to all who are making this change today. The start of new beginnings

I will update in a few hours on my progress.

Its midnight still in hospital sugery went well. The after is the issue. I will be the first to say its very very very painful. I was supposed to go home today but can't get down enough Liquids so they are keeping me. The pain is REAL!!!!!!

The aftermath

Today is Day#2 post-op an I am doing pretty well. No pain, no gas discomfort, no nausea and I an able to keep down watery and apple juice. My heart rate & blood pressure is running high though. I had to go to radiology and perform that test to see if I hag a leak but everything went well. Hopefully I'll go home today. @@luvtie it will start feeling better everyday after today

I was sleeved on Monday and came home Tuesday. It all went very well. Just taking it easy sipping and walking to mobilize the gas. So far no vomiting. I'm taking it slow and doing well with my liquids. The pain is bearable. Just feels like I did a thousand sit ups. Pain meds help but make me sleepy. Each day it gets better. Hopefully my NUT will advance my diet on Wednesday.
