Guys I'm so nervous. Can't believe it's just about here. My surgery is in the morning at 10:30 in Boca Raton with Dr. Shillingford. I flew in from The Bahamas yesterday and leave next Friday. I'm praying I have no gas pains and nausea. Truly praying.

Nikki congrats on you surgery. You did great. Linda you are almost there so keep pushing. I will let all you guys know how it goes tomorrow.

Hi Pey,

I had mine on the 19th. We just missed each other. How are you feeling?

Hey Nikki and Dee. I am doing well after surgery. I had gas pains but it was not horrible and did not last long. Fortunately I had no nausea so that was great. I am struggling a bit with getting in my liquids so I need to work on that. I can not wait for soft foods. It's like my body is so sick of the liquids so it makes me feel like not drinking anything. But I'm still trying to sip sip.

Has anyone heard from Linda? Feel like I have not heard anything from her lately.

I have not seen anything new post from her.
I'm glad your nausea is at bay. Have you tried adding different flavoring to your Water. I seem to tolerate flavored water better than just plain water. chicken broth, sugar free Jello, sugar free popsicles. Hang in there ... it gets easier.

I was sleeved on September 9th, so two weeks today exactly! The first 1.5 weeks were literal hell on Earth, I had quite a few issues with medication and problems with my doctor, but it's been 100% worth it. I am cleared to eat eggs and meats finally, I can go swimming, and I walked 1.5 miles today and only slightly felt like I was going do die from exhaustion and fatigue!

Oh, and I'm down 24 lbs in 2 weeks. That's pretty great.

Can anyone who has had their sleeve give me some inventive options for liquids that is close to food as possible? I am do sick of regular liquids like the Protein Shakes and broth. If I see one more broth I'm gonna hurl. It literally makes me gag now Just looking at them. Haven't eaten them since I left 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!!
