Hey Guys & Gals [emoji1480]

I just finished my last Nutritionist appointment today and I am totally psyched,nervous and a little .. well a lot anxious. I wanted to create this thread to open discussion and new friendship, I have 15 days for my insurance approval and I'm crossing my fingers. My surgery date is August 7th, I'D LOVE to have a sleeve buddy ! I'm an open book !

      Just wanted to wish all tomorrow's patients the best and pray we all do well with no surprises. I probably won't be online until after I return home. Definitely want to keep up with how well we all do

    Lapband revision to sleeve completed! My surgery went well, I came home today-on Stage 1-clear SF liquids...can't wait for Stage 2! Good luck everyone!! BTW dont weigh your self immediately post-op, they pump you with so much IV fluids you will likely weigh more than you did pre-op.

    Hey August Sleevers!!! I just had my hiatal hernia repaired and gastric sleeve surgery yesterday, I was discharged from the hospital today. I'm in some pain, I'm waiting for the meds to kick in. I get full rather quickly drinking water. Any advise because I'm worried about getting my water and protein intake each day.

    I'm doing great, had a lot of pain immediately after but they got it under control pretty quickly. No nausea, meds are taking care of the pain. Hopefully home tomorrow! Thanks for asking how it went.

    Right now just chillin' in a recliner watching tv and sipping my water [emoji2]

    Good luck to everyone having surgery this week! Mine is Tuesday. The preop diet is killing me which has made me truly ready for the surgery. Sorry to be a whiner lmao but I'm so ready for them to cut my stomach off so I'm not this starving all the time!
