Looking for a buddy to connect with. I'm scheduled to be sleeved on 12/15. My pre op diet is giving me head aches. I'm so hungry. I'm started to feel discouraged and thinking maybe I should cancel. I'm nervous and scared.

I love your user ID.... Imready2015!

I am five days post op and feeling great. I am going to work tomorrow! Thought I would have to take off two weeks.

My major issue is horrible taste in my mouth and bad breadth.... family complaints.

Yesterday I added Greek yogurt, it was a nice change from Protein drinks.

Best of luck to everyone and speedy recovery.

Oh man the bad breathe. I'm glad that isn't just me. I feel like I need to brush my teeth 12 times a day.

I am struggling with hunger...they said it's head hunger but my stomach says otherwise.

I am only allowed clear liquids for the 1st week then all liquids the second week then 2 weeks.of purees

I am not hungry at all! Problem is I cannot force myself to drink the clear protein drinks they taste too nasty to me. My NUT said to try a protein boost shot that are about 3 oz so can get it down quickly. Just so I can get some protein in.

I'm so glad I found this post also. I'm scheduled for December 28th TOMORROW and I'm so nervous. Can't stop think maybe I can do this without the surgery or is it all really worth it. I feel really prepared but now I'm second guessing myself.

I was second guessing too but now that it is done (on 12/21) I still think it was the right decision. I have to remember that I have lost weight many times before and always gain it all back and then more. This will be my tool to not do that anymore! My recovery was relatively easy. Gas pain in the hospital but that disipated quickly. Barely used any of my pain medication. Hardest part is head hunger when the rest of the family is eating. We got this!

Hi I was sleeved 12-14 and also looking for a buddy to connect with. How are you doing?

It's so nice to know that we are not going through this alone. I can't seem to turn my head off I'm so nervous but I know it's the right decision. I've struggled with my weight sense my teen years and always regain it all right back.

You will do great!

Looking for a buddy, my surgery is scheduled for Tuesday, Dec.29th. My first appt. with my surgeon was Dec. 1st, I made a quick decision to have the surgery during the holiday break (high school teacher.) Scared I will not be up and ready to teach on Jan. 4th?

I am 6 days post op today

I went shopping for 4 hrs yesterday and.to a party for 3 hrs last night. Shopping for a few hrs again today and just finished 30 min on the treadmill at a slow pace (2.2 mph). I feel great. No pain.

I was sleeved on 12/22. Everything went great, almost no pain. Just some minor discomfort. Activity wise I'm almost back to normal. Just trying to get all my fluids in now.
