Topic: RE: I'm new and I've got a Surgery Date of 3/24!!!!
Aloha Katie,
My surgery is tommorrow March 23rd. I think the hunger gets a little better as you get closer. At least today was better than yesterday and that was better than Sunday. I keep repeating "hunger is the sign that I am human, it's my body doing what it needs to do to prepare for surgery".
I had thought about a picture a day kind of shrinking thing but then I think that's a bit much. Maybe a picture a week?
God Bless,

Hi there! This my very first post and I'm having Gastric Bypass surgery the day after tomorrow!!! EEK!!!! I'm super excited, but super nervous. I'm hungry as all get out from having to rely on liquids to keep me going all day and no end of that in sight. However, the end result will be sooo worth it!
Does anyone else out there have a surgery date of 3/24. Is any of my March Surgery Buddies keeping track of their progress through youtube? I think I am going to do a VLOG, but I just have to figure out how to upload my video from my new phone. Something to work on I guess. Anyways, I look forward to making some new friends and letting it all air out! :)

Hi! I'm no expert but just wanted to let you know I just had the sleeve on 3/17. I was released on 3/18 in the evening and have been taking it easy every since. I am trying to find a menu plan for the first several days out of surgery until i meet with the surgeon again in April. I am on clear liquids right now and getting a little sick of the Isopure protein drink. Good Luck to you!

My "sleeve" surgery was March 17th in Southern California. I was sent home the following evening. I'm trying to find a menu plan for the first days post surgery but can only find menu plans for 3 weeks out. I wasn't sent home with any guidelines or instructions other than clear liquids for first few days. I'm already sick of the Isopure protein drink. : ( Does anyone know what the menu plan is for the days after surgery until I have my first post operative appt with surgeon in April?

Hi,
My surgery date was the same as yours. How are you feeling? What is your starting weight and what is your goal weight? My starting weight is 267 and my goal weight is 167. How are you feeling today? The first couple of days were painful for me but the 3rd day was good and I was able to walk around the mall. Today was not such a good day with the dizziness and nausea...
I am not sure if I am supposed to weigh myself but i did and it seemed like I was gaining weight instead of losing and I have been following the diet exactly. Perhaps its the swelling or that I am constipated that is causing the weight gain or impeding any weight loss. Any suggestions or advice?
