Getting sleeved tomorrow



Recommended Posts

Ok soooo....my big day is tomorrow. I've been on a week liquid diet and taking my supplements BUT....I cheated. Drinking 5 shakes a day wasn't the hardest part. The shakes kept my head from hurting and me feeling faint from not eating. One thing I learned was I won't die from not stuffing my face. I had 1 taco on day 3 & 2 chicken wraps on day 5. Has anyone been denied surgery for not following the liquid diet?

Hey sleevedvegan I had surgery on Dec. 11 and a couple of days before my surgery we were evacuated due to the fires so I honestly couldn't keep up with the pre op diet I didn't eat to bad but I did eat. I was honest with my Dr and he assured me I would be fine. I let them know on Fri and had my surgery Mon I started back on my diet and was really strict on the day before my surgery. Thank God everything came out ok and I did fine. That was just my experience but it could be different for everyone.

Trust me I felt the same but it does not sound like you made terrible food choices. Like you said I have also read about some people not having to diet at all only the day before. I know you really want this and I think you will be fine just stick with it today.

You sound like me! Lol! I’m on day 5 of my liquid diet. Down 10 lbs. I have cheated a couple of times. I ate some almonds one day. Swapped two shakes for some Tomato Soup. Had a cucumber and some cheese. I start clear liquid tomorrow for my sleeve on Dec. 28, so please pray for me! Good luck to you, and Merry Christmas!

Thanks love. Today I'm doing strictly liquids and a detox bath. Hopefully that will help. I've been reading where people haven't had to do a diet at all. I know everybody is different though. I felt so bad for giving in because I really do want this.

      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!

      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!!
