don't be nerves it's over before you know it. the nurses are great in keeping you relaxed and soon you be on your way to recovering and enjoying a healthier life style. I only remember talk to the nurse for a second in the operating room she said they are going give me something to relax and then said we are going to start and I was out and woke up a hour and a half later in recovery I was under a half hour longer then normal because of a hurnia they fixed to that I didn't know I had.  So be brave and you get threw this with no problems and then the weight will disappear. let us know how you make out and a speed recovery.

Topic: RE: 2 weeks post op

no I can handle a cup as well I try sticking to the diet though by just having a 3/4 cup. Went to the hospital last Monday due to pain in my shoulder just to be safe and had a lot of test done Dr B order a scan so I had to drink 2 beer cups of liquid I only manage to get down 1 and a half in a hour the nurse told me I had to drink it all I told her I will but you have to clean up the mess because I'm full and I'm going to get sick if I drink anymore I told her I only have 1/2 a stomach and she didn't know that I had surgery and that I was there to check for a leek in the stomach just say I was full for awhile after the test that turn out good. they sprain my shoulder when they moved me after my surgery when I was still out cold.

Topic: 2 weeks post op

So on Monday I will be 2 weeks post op I'm doing great, and do the first time since surgery I actually felt hungry , I'm still on liquids until Monday and as of right now I can get in almost a full cup of soup or broth it takes me at least 30-45 mins but I can get it in no issues if I went more I would defenetly be sick, I'm just wondering if anyone else had this happen being able to get in a full cup or if maybe I'm pushing it ?

Hey jjwbuster, Its so true, very great staff, Dr Savoie did my surgery who is equally great, I have already lost 22 lbs, 8 of those from post op boost diet, the rest came off in 11 days, its getting so exciting, my clothes are starting to be to big, and people are starting to say how much thinner my face looks :D it is so exciting,
