August 31st!!!

I am getting my sleeve this Thursday and I am so excited!! I have to say I am a bit nervous though, not exactly sure why. I only have a 1 day liquid diet the day before my surgery and as silly as it may seem I am really looking forward to it. I think it will all finally seem real once Wednesday gets here! Anyone else getting sleeved the same day?

The nausea is better today. Drinking my 2nd medicine cup of water [emoji16]. How are you feeling lovedrotten? I hope you are doing well.

Thank you all for the encouragement.

I got sick three times last night, not from drinking anything just in my sleep. I didn't have any nausea medication at that point. Once they gave it to me I felt much better. Going to go walk again right now. Worked with my respiratory therapist this morning and drinking a little here and there when I am awake. I am glad you are feeling better. Keep up the great work!!!

I am staying another night too because of my nausea. Pain control has been tough, apparently I was a tough case and the almost had to open me up all the way. Hoping to get home tomorrow. Miss my own bed.

Man I have been doing great on the water today. The protein shakes are super sweet so that is tough. Keep hanging in there! We got this.

Good morning trying4me!! How are doing today? I feel great. Hardly any pain at all and my nausea is getting better and better. I even had some chicken broth at breakfast this morning. No more IV for me, just waiting for the Dr. to come discharge me this morning (fingers crossed) I'm ready to go home that's for sure.

In glad you are doing pretty good. I'm only 2 days out and definitely don't have any hunger at all. In fact all the food commercials just gross me out. I'm sure that will wear off soon enough. How are you doing with your protein? I get start full liquids tomorrow for now I am still on clears.

Hello lovedrotten, I am still having significant pain but it is managed with oral meds now. No more nausea. I just saw the doctor and he thinks I can discharge this afternoon! Yay!! I am drinking protein shakes and lots of water. And no hunger hear either!

Hi trying4me!! How are you doing? How are things going for you at home? Today I woke up nearly feeling like myself and it's fantastic. Struggling to get all 64 oz of liquids down but am getting closer to it everyday!!! I can get the protein and stay within my calories no problem though. It was really painful to drink until today. I think it was still the gas from the surgery that was doing it. I am taking small drinks today and everything seems to going down pretty well for the most part. I even was able to to do housework and laundry today :).... I hope everything is going as well for you!!!

Hey lovedrotten! So glad things are going well at home. Last night I chased pain but today I feel better. I think I tried to tapper off narcs too soon. I am hitting my water and protein goals. What is your caloric goal? I don't have one set. But I am under 500kcal. I did some like housework and laundry too! Felt good to move more. I am in Washington state about 30 miles from the Eagle Creek fires and our air quality is awful, so all my walking has been inside. Bummer!

Do you have a divette in one of your incisions that hurts the most?

Keep working on that water. I am cheering for you. Oh and if you like tomato soup, a half cup is very satisfying right now.

I had my sleeve on 29 th and honestly I'm having a hard time I guess I'm just missing food and I eat more than my body wants so today I tried to really listen to my body and eating wasn't as painful but It's just harder than I expected and more emotional...
