Sleeve for me

Starting to feel pretty good. I'm losing weight at a good rate. I have lost 7 pounds since after surgery. I have one more week of broths and protein shakes. I have soups sometimes. Anywhere between 4-10 bites and I'm full. It's nice not to have to stuff myself to feel satisfied. I'm very happy to have this surgery done.

Any suggestions of what to pack for the hospital and for the first few days after surgery?

Doing this pre-op diet now... I'm excited because it means the day is getting closer. First day wasn't bad at all and I didn't mind the taste of the protein shake. It was however incredibly hard after I was at work and seen that a well meaning co-worker had brought in Russell Stovers s'mores. But I toughed it out while it mocked me for 12 hours! My job has been pressuring me about taking vacation and has been a mess to the point I told them I was having surgery and it was non of their business. I'm sure they will figure it out later.. But oh well. My regular Doctor actually called Dr. Umbach and went over his concerns with his office. The whole staff in Las Vegas has been wonderful and very helpful. I feel very comfortable having him do my surgery and would not ever think about having surgery done outside of the United States. I thank god for this opportunity to set my life on the path that I will be living a fulfilling life and not one that will be hindered with being unhealthy! I wish you all luck on your journey and I am so thankful to be sharing it with all of you! Good luck and keep me updated on how it's going!
