Thinking of you today and your surgery - Positive thoughts for a speedy and easy recovery

Hey! Sorry I missed all of your messages. We just pcs'ed to mayport and so things have been crazy hectic. I hope your surgery went great! And welcome to the sleeved side

Today's your day! We finally can stop the pre-op diet!,, woo hoo! One milestone achieved..... thinking of you surgery buddy!

Two days to surgery - I am so excited for you, it is going to be an amazing journey for you - keep us posted on how you are doing - Cheers here's to a quick and smooth recovery

Hey can you send me that list your nutritionist sent you thanks

Hey! I am feeling great! 10 days post op, and I've already lost 14 lbs. My energy is back and my incisions barely hurt now. I've been off pain meds since 5 days post op, so I was a little slow at first. Dr. Raheb was awesome, he came to check on me a few times and he said everything was going great. I'm anxious to try soft foods this week, I'm definitely over protein shakes. Everyone is starting to notice my weightloss, so I'm feeling much more positive now. Like 3 days post op I definitely had an "oh crap" moment and kind of second guessing my decision, but I think that is pretty normal. If you have any questions, just let me know!

Yep, 2 full weeks of fluids for pre op, but you can have sf Popsicles, sf jello, broth and protein shakes. I was a little miserable, but now I'm doing the same diet for my 2 weeks post op, and it doesn't bother me at all. I will admit, I did cheat on my pre op diet, but nothing crazy and I still lost 13 lbs while on it. But the last few days before surgery I stuck to my diet.

Hey! I am doing awesome. 4 days post op today. I'm almost completely off pain meds, now they are only needed because I've been doing too much

My best advice is to get up and walking as soon as you are allowed (and as long as you aren't nauseous) because that helps with the gas pain. My incisions are a little sore, but the gas was the hardest part. I'm already down 4 lbs since my surgery, so it's definitely working!

Let me know if you need anything!

thanks for the review on all the shakes, ive heard over and over that premiere were the best, as soon as i finish the yucky ones i already bought i will search out where i can buy premiere around here. Thanks again and good luck to you !!
