I'm the 18th and SUUUUUUPER excited!

How are all the early August surgeries going!? I had mine aug it’s 4th and I’ve seen so many with similar dates. Hope everyone is doing well pre op and post op. I’m still in major pain 3 days after..one specific incision is hurting a lot, but I’ve finally starting taking in more protein shakes and some sherbet etc. lmk how you guys are doing !

August 2nd here! All in all it’s been good! Very little pain except for gas but that’s tolerable. For some reason it’s the mornings that tend to be the roughest on my tummy! I’m not sure if it’s cause I’m not drinking all night cause I’m sleeping or what! I wanna say it’s almost in between gas and hunger pain but who knows.

So I’ve been 5 days post op now, I generally feel ok now, much different from when I was in hospital and 1st day of coming home. (Horrible) no nausea and Pain is minimal also. Today I walked outside for almost a mile and went back. I feel ok, sort of winded but ok. I’m still doing pretty much the liquid only diet. I was able to eat a whole sugar free pudding cup today. If you count the pre liquid diet weight loss I think I’m at 23 lbs lost and hoping to lose many more!

My surgery date is August 16th. I’m on my pre-surgery diet on day 6. I’m have extreme insomnia and feel very weak like I might pass out. Is this normal?

Drink G2 Gatorade and some broth those two have some sugar some carbs and sodium.

Anyone scheduled for Aug 21st??

I just got home from the hospital. I’m doing ok, no more and no less pain than I imagined. Finding it a bit hard to drink enough but persisting with it. I’m glad it’s done and I can keep going. For those with surgery in the coming days and weeks, listen to your team, you will be great! ????

Hi. New here.. came across this on Google search for something else.. thank God lol. I just got mine August 3rd.

Anyone scheduled for Aug 21st??

Congrats I’m Aug. 12th but I hope Covid doesn’t stop it

Yes, I am worried about that also.

My sleeve is scheduled August 12th. I was afraid the hospital was calling me to cancel, but it was scheduling my preop labs and COVID test. Feeling very nervous.

One week liquid diet! I got 2 weeks. I see some have no pre op diet. Such varying processes between Docs and Hospitals
