    Hello! I'm getting the Gastric Sleeve in October! I was only approved in May.

  • Just received surgery date Sept 5th. Super nervous. Had band removed in March, had 3 total. Question? How does it feel in terms of restriction? I'm totally aware of how the band felt but do

How long after sleeve surgery can I go back to my remote job?

I went back a little over a week after. I work remote and in person. You will be on pain meds for awhile, so you might not be great at work on those.

Hi. My gastric sleeve is on 11/4. Getting geared up for the liquid diet. Is anyone else starting or on it right now.

GOOD MORNING , MINE IS 10/29 AND I HAD MY PRE OP THURSDAY AND THEY HAVE ME ON A LEAN AND GREEN DIET IS WHAT THEY CALL IT HERE AT THE HOSPITAL , BASICALLY NO FAT OR SUGARS AND STUFF, MY LIQUID DIET STARTS AFTER SURGERY .

@pinkneymm@aol.com
Another AOL account? Great, have you had it for a long time? I’ve always had mine. Anyway I’m on my 2nd week of pre op diet and having a hard time with it because I don’t know why?? I’ve lost a lb a day so far and my esophageal hernia started really acting up and it hurts to swallow anything. But other than that it’s great to already be losing weight. I can even fit into some clothes that I couldn’t before. My surgery is 10/21…really looking forward to it! Yours is not too far away! Yay!!! Best to you!
How do people add the previous question they are answering before sending. Just can’t figure it out. Please help??

Yes. I’ve had the same email since dial-up. I’m nervous about the liquid diet. I’m basically broth & protein drinks. I live alone so I’m in the process of getting rid of all my food. Best of luck with the surgery. Let me know how it goes.

It would be really helpful if I did the same but I have a husband. He said he was going to do some of my diet probably more afterwards but the temptation is definitely here. Best to you also.
