All the best to you! Please let us know how you are doing what it is really like post surgery. June 8th is my sleeve date! Funny the program I am in does not require the liquid diet pre-op but post-op. They say walk, walk, walk post surgery to get rid of gas and to heal. We only get one night stay in hospital then they send us on our way. You are probably much younger than I so you might bounce right back! Okay here is to your new life just like a butterfly spreading new wings. If you are reading this in pain you are probably thinking shut up you crazy lady lol. Just kidding. Alright keep us posted. Prayers for a speedy recovery :D -Michele

My 5/18 sleeve update...

I was sleeve at 8am, suppose to have been noon, but I didn't get that call until 630am that morning from OR nurse that they moved my time up 4 hours...ugh, made mad dash to hosp, was in OR by 820... woke up by 10am in recovery, it took 1 hour to take my gallbladder and sleeve me... "shrunk liver 2016" really does work...my M.D. said he should YouTube my surgery for VSG , anyway up to a room by 1030am with pain pump and lidocaine Patches on my my scars to help with pain also... up walking by 2pm, hit pain pump up by 4pm, I/s every hr, up by 6pm, up by 9pm...always take a hit of pain pump when walking assisted... sleep on/off whenever the iv alarms &nursing would allow... up by 6am today, walking, 830 leak test... contrast was not bad, BUT was allowed to drink thru a straw... by 930am the start of day 1-2 of liquids only , goal 48oz along with my 1000cc bag of Water... (b4 being discharge hold on to those iv fluids until you walk outdoor) pain pump discontinued at 1100????, oh btw on 6 oz h20 by now (1-2 oz a hr) yes it's hard but I push thru... D/C from hospital by 230,got home sore, made me a Percocet and raglan cocktail with 2 oz water... setting my timer at every hour 1-2oz Water with walking... I'm going to get me a t-shirt made with"i survived liquid diet 2016"... it's funny cuz I didn't even worry about a scale the whole time

        Have a great Wednesday too! Sorry you're hungry all the time, I'm pretty much the same..and I'm sick of eating the same food all the time.

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
