Any tips and tricks do this week? I’m already having anxiety and it starts tomorrow.

Hell? Really? This is the first chapter in the greatest story of your life! A whole new you is waiting around the corner. This is the gateway to heaven!

Just stay busy - TV movies friends etc.

It will be a long week but i used one tool to get thru it SLEEP - Whenever i got all wound up i would just crash, PM meds and call it a day.

Good luck and reach out here this is a great support group, Broth will fill you up so you wont be hungry it will be more of a mind F@#cking then a hunger thing -

It will be really worth it and spend the time wisely -

You are getting a tool but you have to get the whole workshop ready - Use this week to do that

Good luck

I only say it’s hell because I have a migraine. My body is NOT used to being this restricted. But I’m gonna stick with it! I want this more than anything.

You’re right. I’m just whining, and I shouldn’t be. ??‍♀️ Thanks for your suggestions tho.

Whine away that is what this place is for -

I am going to get attacked for this one for sure, but going to say it anyhow. I found the use of Liquids like Tito's special protein water, and Red and White Wine weight lose formula a help for that week also. Also find a Spouse or Friend you can pass the time with them - Lots of little tricks on this site as to how to get thru it

Ok Girls attack i know its wrong but just sharing my experience of hell week

Careful with aspirin. I was not allowed any pain reliever other than Tylenol which stinks and never worked for headaches for me. Actually I'm only allowed Tylenol going forward post op too! A little worried because I get migraines so I feel your pain. But I've had no headaches post op so far! Good luck you'll do great!

I keep hearing other sleeve people say that they are only allowed tylenol yet I went home from the surgery with a script for ibuprofen! Was told to alternate it with tylenol and take oxy as needed. Additionally we were told that if we wanted or needed to take NSAIDS for anything after surgery, have the sleeve. Not sure if my doc is progressive or behind haha

I was also sent home with Oxy I never took. Never needed any pain reliever luckily. I know NSAIDS are generally harsh on the stomach I'm sure short term post op not a problem but long term not good for tiny stomachs. Every doctor is different as we frequently see lol ?
