This has been a rough road for me, but I am doing it because I know the results will be worth it. Is there anyone out there who is getting sleeved in the next few days who is still having a hard time with the liquid diet? I am allowed three Impact shakes a day, one other protein shake of my choice and up to 64 oz of liquids. My head still hurts, I am shakey and hungry a lot! If anyone has any tips, please let me know.

Happy Birthday.   Not my birthday, but my surgery date also.  Feeling a little better each day.  Hope you are also.  We'll keep in touch. 

Hi everyone, I got sleeved on the 12th at 7:30am and was able to come home on the 15th. I had to stay a few extra days because I got a high fever. My doctor ordered an upper GI and everything looked great so he said the reason was now walking enough and drinking my fluids. So I had to be on antibiotics and IV liquids.  Dr. Jossart was in constant communication with my nurses. If you are scheduled to have surgery with him you wil;l be in great hands. A word of advise to anyone who did not have surgery yet ..... Make sure you walk and drink your liquids. You will be on many pain killers so you will be sleepy but make sure you get up an walk. Like I said my surgery was on Monday the 12th. I was doing really great but Tuesday morning I was really tired and slept longer than I should have resulting in a fever and a couple of additional days in the hospital. The nurses at the hospital were wonderful. They really take care of you.

I have no hunger and no regrets, (other than sleeping longer than I should have)

Have a great day all, gotta go for the 10 minute walk.

 definately!! I'll be thinking of you through my pain killer haze lol

Every day is better than the last. I must say that telling people at work and home that I'm on this diet helps a lot as well. I kid about wanting realy food lol I've even done it on here on my my blog but I'm more focused than that. It's just a small vent being that this is Christmas time and people keep asking me to go to parties, dropping Christmas baskets in my office, etc. It's a little nerve racking. However, I've turned on my extra giving spirit and have given all of those food baskets and party tickets away to friends and family. lol They are loving my diet lol
