Best of Luck to you, just  walk,  I spent the first day walking non-stop since i couldn't sleep.   Ohh and find someone to give you a good back rub while your sitting up, helped me to get rid of some of the gas inside.

Thank you all for the comments, it is appreciated. I am always worried that I am not doing well enough, I want this to work and want to be rid of the excess weight.  I don't want to fail after going through this journey.  

Ms. Pammy thank you for the reply, I really liked the Isopure Chocolate Powder, and my favorite was the muscle milk light RTD. I hope I will still like them when its time to go to full liquids. I am sure I will, I have always loved chocolate flavor.  Best of luck to you with your VSG later in the year.

Hello all,
Well I got Sleeved on Monday, and I have to say what a journey it's been. The first day was not my finest hour, I had horrible pain and the pain medicine made me dry heave. But the staff at the hospital was wonderful and took great care of me, and my wonderful wife rubbed my back to help me and this was great as it got rid of the gas quicker. It was a long night but made it through.
Day 2 - Still felt pretty terrible, and I did the leak test, and passed YEAH!!!. Then they brought me the clear liquids and a protein jello. I was actually scared to eat. Didn't know what to expect. Doctor said eat till I feel full... Well I was nervous because I didn't know what full post surgery would mean... So I did get discharged, but the Tylenol Liquid didn't help with pain at all, and I was very nauseous still.  Got some other pain meds and naseau medicine. I was able to get a few hours sleep.
Day 3- yesterday - Woke up feeling so much better, you all were right that each day gets better and you have to keep positive, not letting the first day or two strike you down. My wife was right telling me that I would get better, she has been a tremendous motivator and supporter. I was able to get in 84 grams of protein yesterday, but fell 4 oz shy of the 40oz liquid goal. Just very full.
Now just trying to get my protein and liquids in, and looking forward to the journey ahead.  Can't wait to loose this weight.

I wanted to thank all for the great information and support that got me to this place today, and look forward to sharing more of the journey as I progress.

Thank you Lisa, I am really excited to go on this journey of life now.

Well I am excited and yet nervous at the same time. 
I have my Surgery Scheduled for Monday the 20th. Not sure the time yet, as they will call me tomorrow.   I am sitting at work right now wrapping up all the loose ends since I will be out for 6 weeks.

I am have been preparing for this for a long time, and going to spend tomorrow getting everything I need ready for when I get home.  

Thank you all for all the great advise on the site, and I feel because of you all I am confident and prepared.  THANK YOU !!!!

Best of Luck to you.. I am also getting sleeved on the 20th of June.  Just got my insurance call today that its was all pre-certified and ready to go.   Good Luck again.....

What Flavor did you get ? or did you get the assorted ?

I am on Day 3 of my Pre-Op and was told Liquid Diet until Surgery.  I am a bit confused, and I am doing my 2-3 Muscle Milk Lights between Breakfast and Lunch, and then for dinner I do the Isopure Chocolate with Skim Milk.  This brings me at approx 95 grams of protein for the day.  I wasn't told for a calorie count. Wish I knew.  

Muscle Milks are 300 calories
Isopure - approx 220 calories
Skim Milk 100 calories ? approx
Thats only 620 calories, should I be doing more ? 

Yeah. I am doing the Chocolate Muscle Milk Light meal replacements for Breakfast and Lunch, and the change is that I weigh out my good at dinner.  I do between 4-7oz of protein, and then 1 Cup of Vegetables, I do a lot of Brussel Sprouts, and then 1/2 cup of starch, or 1/2 sweet potato.
I haven't started exercising yet like they want, I am just to tired from working. I work crazy hours.

I hope things get easier for you.. Its not easy, but I am trying to change my mind about how I eat and thinking when I am hungry.  So hard not to grab cookies, or chips, or snacks that the kids eat.
