Its a support group I found online. It does all kinds of weight loss surgeries and plastic surgeries. They have a special section for sleevers. Its very informative too. I like all the info I can get.

Just got the call from the sleep center. I've been officially diagnosed with obstructive sleep apnea. Spending another night in the hospital April 26th so they can get my settings for the cpap all figured out. Kind of bummed, but just another co-morbidity to add to the list. And from what I hear I'll get a much better night's sleep and feel a lot better, fewer headaches, etc. I just keep repeating "just another hoop... just another hoop."

Sorry to hear that. I have my overnight sleep study next Tuesday. I'm hoping it all goes smoothly. I have anxiety. I dont want to know if I stop breathing in my sleep...I will never sleep again. Lol

Welcome Qwalla. Im from WV so I not anywhere close to Boise. The pre op liquid diet I guess depends on the doctor. I have seen anywhere from 10 days to just 1 day. He said mine would be 3 days.

I'm from Arkansas. My pre op is liquids for 2-3days I think, the 2 weeks before that are shakes for Breakfast and lunch, then a healthy choice or lean cuisine for dinner. I think I can do that!

Momof4ohmy- where did you get the unjury samples? I got some bipro samples from their Facebook page. And I love my cpap. I know that sounds strange, but I feel sooo much better in the mornings!

@@babbit I got it from the unjury website. It's like $20 but for all those samples it's not a bad deal at all.... 10 Protein shakes plus the shaker and thermometer.

I am doing a band to sleeve revision all in 1 surgery. I am already on cpap and feel better with it but will be happy when its gone! I am only required to do 3 months of supervised weight loss. I guess because I have the band already. I dont have to loose any weight i just cant gain an ounce. There is no pre op diet either but i am going to do the same liver defatting diet i did before i got the band. I should be done with my last nut appointment the end of June. I am going on a cruise in early July. So I am hoping that end of July is d day. My birthday is mid August and I wouldn't mind a bit if I had to drink my birthday meal!!!! Here's hoping ????

      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! 😞
