November 2020 sleevers



Recommended Posts

I start my 2 week pre-op diet on the 20th. It is all liquids and two Snacks (an egg or yogurt). My birthday is on the 25th. This year will be booze and cake free. I am celebrating a new me! I can't wait until Nov 3. That is the first day of my new life.
Happy early birthday! Mine is shortly after yours, and my surgery is the 2nd of November. Great birthday presents, huh? [emoji16]

Any fellow Nov sleevers care to share their pre-op diet? My surgeon just told me to lose 10 lbs before surgery, however in the paperwork it says 10-14 days clear liquid diet with foods, drinks and sample menus. I’ve got an upcoming appointment with the dietician where I’m sure I’ll get clarity. I was just wondering what everyone else was doing, or if you even knew.
I don't start mine until the 23rd, and the dietician told me to not start earlier (noooo problem! LOL) The paperwork is in the other room, but from what I remember, it's low carb, low calorie. Some foods, but not much. I'm glad it isn't liquids only, like a lot of folks'. I dunno how you all survive on that (afterward, sure... Before? [emoji15])

I’m scheduled for Nov 6!! So excited and a little nervous 😬 I’m going to Mexico. What are you all doing to get ready now?

I switched to Decaf, I’m consciously trying to chew things thoroughly (not as easy as it seems), and I have increased my walking distance and times. I had over 11,000 steps Saturday, but then felt I needed a day of rest Today I did just under 6000 steps in an hour walk, and will probably go out again later, or maybe ride my bike to get some more activity. I don’t get my pre-op diet until next week.

I've been trying to cut out all caffeine, which has been a struggle. I'm trying to get motivated to walk more and exercise. I've also started incorporating shakes at least one meal a day and drinking more Water. I've noticed it the last week I'm beginning to mourn the things I won't be able to eat!! That hasn't been fun.

I hear ya! I am a serious Diet Coke addict. I’m trying to slow down now before I have to go cold turkey!

      It has hit me today, as I sit in my chair at work that I don't have my belly sticking out to where it would hit the desk. Oh and I can cross my legs more comfortably. It amazes me just how much I have loss in inches vs actual pounds, I have lost 24 lbs all together. But I believe in inches all over about 3 inches. I am noticing more energy and have pep to my step. My skin is a lot clearer. My watch band is shorter by 3 notches. the little things are what I am noticing. When I bend over I don't feel out of breath or I am going to fall over ( weeble wobble). 
      I am having a hard time with my sweet tooth, it is very hard to not want to get some ice cream or chocolate. Candy I can do without. I have no craving really for that, just chocolate and ice cream. I have gone as far as taking Popsicle and putting them in my mixer with almond milk and making like ice cream with that/ sometimes I have added un-flavored protein powder. 
      I feel better everyday. The energy is great to have with having younger kids and being able to have the energy to keep up. 😃

      If anyone has any advice on how to make your stomach feel better after you eat something you shouldn't have or at too fast, I would GREATLY appreciate it!! It's painful on both sides of my abdomen (like to the point I'm doubled over and using a hot water bottle in addition to medicine) and I'm really nauseous (the thought or smell of food is 🤢).
