I am trying to do this without cheating-it's a challenge, I'll be honest! I just keep telling myself it's only "x" more days...I know it's going to make the surgery easier for me & Dr. too so that helps...but the worst is being around the family when they eat ....I know I can do this, just need to convince my brain and stomach!!

Mine is Dec 14. I haven't been super excited or worried. Anyone else like that?

Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Yes! I am going to get sleeved on the 16th. It doesn't seem really REAL yet. Im not overly anything about it. I hope it changes. I want to be excited and happy!

My sleeve is scheduled for the 21st, like several others. I was wondering how other 21sters are holding up with the preop diet. Today was my first day.

I know different surgeons use different diets, but the one I am following calls for three Protein shakes a day (30g protein/1g sugar) and unlimited broth and Crystal Light type drinks, and Decaf teas. I do have a cup of coffee in the morning with a splash of vanilla Protein shake and Splenda.

I followed it to a T today, but it was hard when I made dinner for my husband. I went in the other room and drank some ginger miso broth from Trader Joe's while he ate.

I had my sleeve yesterday, along with hiatal hernia repair. Going home this afternoon. I have..NO...pain from surgery. What I do have is a back full of arthritis that was killing me immeriatly after surgery (probably from lying flat which I can't normally do) so I have spent my hosputal time in the reclinder instead. Much better. Just taking Tylenol because my doctor insists. No nausea yet. No anything, really.

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

        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!!
