Any Feb 2011 surgerys?

Hi to all I`m new on this site getting to know how it works, so far it`s all good it had help me alot. :-) super happy my surgery dates it FEB 10 feeling great i got the ATKINS protein shakes (vanilla) it taste good. WELL GOOD LUCK TO ALL OF US and be happy looking forward to the looser bench :-)

Just wanted to check on the ones who have completed their surgeries.  How are ya'll doing?  Good, Bad's and uglys, please.

 I had my sleeve on the 3rd, last Thursday.  My surgical team was awesome and put me at ease.  Be overly informative with your anesthesiologists!  I had a little bit of trouble with breathing and keeping my oxygen levels high enough.  First night sucks!  It is mostly the anesthesia wearing off that makes you feel awful.  By day 2, I was doing laps around the floor.  By day 3 I could take a shower by myself.  I am only 6 days post op and Ive been out and about taking short shopping trips.  My best advice is to stay with a friend or family member for at least 2-3 days after you are discharged.  And stay on top of your protein and water intake!  Only set back I had is, day after discharged i had swelling in leg and had to go to ER to rule out clots.  That was awful!  turns out it was just edema from sitting too long and the medication retaining water.  

It sounds like everything is going good, thanks for updating us on your progress!!! keep us posted

Hello all,
My surgery date is Feb. 17. I can't wait to be on the loser's bench with all of you! If you've had your surgery already I hope it went smoothly. If you haven't I pray it goes well.

Hi, my date is feb 21.  Have you started your pre-op liquid diet, mine starts on monday, and im so not looking forward to it, but im ready.

Luckily my surgeon only requires a 24 hour liquid diet.  I'm doing no carbs on my own though.  You're a few days after me...this is a really exciting time.  I'm trying to stay busy so I won't think about it...lol

GOOD LUCK!!!! on youe surgery today!!!!keep us posted!!!

I'm scheduled for the 22nd...SOOOO HAPPY

Congrats!
