I'm so glad to hear that everyone is going good! Mine is on the 10th, and I'm so nervous about surgery and everything after surgery!

You will do great! after the initial discomfort, you will feel stronger each passing day. I had sleeve on 3rd and realized today I needed to set timer for sips of Protein and Water or I would not get enough of either. 15 mins between sips, and I am finally finishing one 8 oz shake and had plenty of water. Good luck😇😇😇

First few days I tot I was back to normal and drank like normal...big mistake...I got the foamies after that. Terrible vomiting. Now I am just sipping for the whole day. Hopefully no more foamies.

I'm sure this feeling will pass, so please take it with a grain of salt, but post op day 4 and I am having major regrets. I can't even drink a full bottle of Water in a day, and if i see one more food ad, I'm gonna scream. Feeling like i should have tried harder at dieting. Just waiting for the feeling to pass. This is normal, right?

Help me guys! I am due for my surgery next Tuesday the 16th, but I have blown my pre-op diet three different times. I think it’s because I have not gotten approval yet from my health insurance company, I just don’t think it’s real! I know I should just do what they say, beyond liquids for two weeks just in case, but I’m having a really hard time! Help me out give a girl a hand and prayer and any advice you have!

So I go in for surgery on the 10th. My insurance company approved me for on day inpatient stay and said this is the average stay for gastric bypass. How long were you in the hospital?

      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!

      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!!
