October 2018 Sleeve

Hi all. My surgery is scheduled for October 16! It’s coming so fast. I’m excited and nervous! I’ve waited so long for this. I’ve spent so much time taking care of everyone else and now it’s my time! Who else is out there that’s having surgery in October? I’d love to connect with you.

Hi BelleofBatonRouge! Are you excited? Nervous? Are you on a liver shrinking diet? I am on the second week and it’s goung pretty well. I’m not craving anything so I guess that’s good! Best of luck to you! Let’s stay in touch to keep up with each other’s progress.

Thanks for checking in! Waiting to be discharged now. I had a rough time with the anesthesia and couldn’t keep anything down but it was better today. I had to be able to drink 60 cc of protein shake and 60 cc of water for 6 hours. Now I’m headed home! Yay

Oh good yay!!!! Im so glad it went well for you! Keep us posted!!!! Best of luck!!! *hugs*

Had my surgery on Monday. All went well. My biggest issue is I can’t eat sugar free food. The artificial sweeteners make me sick. I have this horrible taste in my mouth that I can’t get rid of! Makes me want to vomit. How is everyone else doing?

Just scrolled back to this to reminisce. My surgery was 10/22/18.. so it's been a little under six months and I'm down 94 lbs since surgery.. although I had a bit of a rough patch month three through five where I was eating alot I shouldn't have.. I've recently regained some semblance of control over my eating and am eating alot healthier. How are other October surgery peeps doing?
