I'm today at 1pm. Long morning so far. I'm starving and kinda weak/tired from Clear Liquids only. Have a pretty decent Headache. It's 7:30 am and don't need to leave for hospital until 11:15. Think I'll quilt a bit and keep my mind off. My husband is making sausage and eggs and I am having hard time with smell I'm so hungry LOL. I'm not nervous YET. Just want it over with. I'm keeping positive.

Hi BunnyJean,

I go in at 2 pm to have surgery at 4 pm. Weirdly I'm not hungry, just thirsty. Had to give up the water at 10 am. I'm not really nervous either. I made my list and checked it twice.. I'm 100% packed and showered... I just need to get dressed. Good luck with your surgery.. We've got this!!

I got sleeved November 6th. Yay! Stayed one night in the hospital. Feeling pretty great. The only thing I emphasize is sip slowly and tiny amounts of fluids. When I didn’t I would throw up and trust me that is not pleasant!
Congrats to all fellow November sleevers! [emoji1316]

First full day home after surgery. The pain is tolerable. The only issue I’m having is fluids. While in the hospital I was sipping fluids with no problem now fast forward & I cant get anything down without severe chest pain. I’ve managed to keep it down which is a chore in itself. I spoke with the nurse practitioner today and she told me to focus on things with electrolytes in them and since I was able to get a popcicle down with minimal pain she suggested I make freezer pops out of propel...etc so I gave it a try and I’m now able to get fluids down as l was worried about dehydration. However if things don’t improve I would need to go in...so hopefully this issue will resolve itself soon!!! Also good luck to everyone getting sleeved today!!!❤️

Heading into surgery this morning! Hoping for a manageable recovery. Can't wait to start this journey

Wishing you well. I am now on second day post-op. Recovering well I think. Able to drink the recommended fluids without too much discomfort.
