2nd chances sleeve over band

[wendymarie62]

hello all....anyone have dr hernandez for a sleeve in MX? I am scheduled for 1/25/17 this upcoming Wed. On the pre-op liquid now and going thru the sugar withdrawls, any tips on this stage. I like broth but long for something I can chew.
Looking for other sleevers scheduled same time and place, anyone?

I only had 3 days of full liquids so it wasn't too bad. You can have sugar free popsicles and sugar free jello.

[SCHERYL]

Jello works too of course sugar free also, just think you'll be sick of those too by the end of the process so DO NOT buy them in bulk.

I have been having the sugar free jello but oh my the sugar free cherry popsicle was so sweet I tossed it. the jello helps. thanks Christie.

[wendymarie62]

lol gotcha! the whole sugar free thing seems weird.

scheryl how did your surgery with hernandez go? as expected?

[SCHERYL]

Actually I think it went well all that had surgery that day everything was great I still talk with them over facebook and we keep each other informed on our journey. And even complaints how we lost our boobs or butt lol

As of yesterday i've gone from 324 lbs from start of pre-determined on 9/27 to 250 lbs on 1/18

[wendymarie62]

that is amazing and wonderful! health benefits galore! congratulations. when I initially lost weight with the band I wondered if they made padded underwear for a new butt lol and I found out they do lol
how long post op were you on liquid diet? I look forward to meeting people on the same journey

I had surgery on 10/7 first shake on 10/14, and an egg a week later
