December 2018 Sleevers!



Recommended Posts

I’m struggling too. I’ve been eating Protein and veggies in addition to shakes but feel like this last week I need to just cut out everything else and just do shakes! I’m nervous about something getting in the way of surgery, I’ve come this far for it to be cancelled or postponed!

So my doctors office submitted everything to my insurance this week. Now the waiting game to hear back to schedule my last consult with dr and schedule surgery date. Excited yet nervous because it’s the waiting to set them up

I am in a similar spot, first submission sent in late October didn’t include my 36 month weight history so it was denied..long sad story where I finally got all items (fingers crossed) ready to be submitted. So for now I am only a HOPEFUL December...wishing you a speedy approval!!

Struggling with the liquid diet today. I ate an ounce of cheddar cheese and feel terrible about it! 3 more days until surgery.

Are you fully liquid? I have two shakes + 4 oz of Protein and unlimited starchy vegetables. You got this! The cheese is just a tiny blip on your radar :)

9 more days til surgery. I hate these stupid shakes. I made through my son’s birthday yesterday without eating anything except my shakes and everyone telling me their opinion on my surgery 😞. I’m just ready to get it over with.

Best of luck guys for whomever is this week. liquid diet sucks but it’s helping for sure with the post op diet. I am counting down the days to have some Soup with texture again.

Going to weigh myself weekly on the same day as my surgery which will be a Friday. Trying to prep myself for the rollacoaster the next year is going to bring.

        Have a great Wednesday too! Sorry you're hungry all the time, I'm pretty much the same..and I'm sick of eating the same food all the time.

      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!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
