My surgery was July 18th. I came home yesterday from the hospital. So far no complications just having a hard time drinking. Any suggestions on how to stay hydrated despite drinking so little.

I was doing so good for the past week and a half on my pre op diet and then I cheated. My brother and father stopped to get pizza on the way to fishing and my veggies didn't cut it. I was hungry and I ate a slice.

It tasted so freaking good... And now my stomach is turning.

So? I have one week left on pre-op nutrition plan. I put on this "Pink Cupcake" lotion today which smells delicious. I want to eat myself.

I feel like Woody Woodpecker in Pantry Panic...Woody is starving and delusional, having a staring contest with the ghost of "Starvation ...

No worries! Just get back at it. Although I get that it might make it harder at first.

@@donya4859 What time is your surgery tomorrow? I have to be there at 6:00 am for surgery at 7:30. My husband will drop me off then he has to take our grandson for his driving test and he has a doctor appointment at 12:30 then he will come back to the hospital. I hope to be all sleeved and hopefully not too sick or in too much pain by then.

I can only hope for a July surgery.....I have my 5 hour block appointment tomorrow for all the testing, if all paperwork is good and insurance says it's a go, how long after your testing did you have to wait to schedule surgery?

2 days post op. I was also allowed to drink Water a couple of hours after surgery which I was very grateful for.

Left the hospital today. Was getting woken every 6 hours to check vitals and take pain meds.

I'm still pretty bloated from the IV.

Pain is annoying when getting out of bed, but otherwise not bad at all.

liquids are going down fine, haven't tried solids yet.... that's a few days away.

Still have on compression leggings.

My pupils are very dilated. Not sure if it's from the drugs in my system, or from accidentally touching the anti-nausea patch behind my ear, then my eyes. Hopefully not the latter.

Wishing you all a good experience.

I'm officially sleeved! I had my surgery on 7/19 and all seemed to have gone well. I wasn't in too much pain that first day, but the following day when they took away my Happy Button a/k/a morphine, some pain kicked in. I would walk a few laps from my room to the nurses station only to get a little nauseous and headed back to my room. Could not sleep well at night since I had a 97-year old roommate with a hip fracture and alzheimer's that snored ALL night. The clear diet they gave in the hospital was not working, so I just drank the Water. I came home yesterday and am trying my best to get the liquids down. Does anyone else hear a gurgling in their throats as the liquids settle in the stomach?
