I was sleeved on Aug 24th. sugar free Ice cream was on my list of diet options from my surgeon, so therefor I ate it...but very little! I mixed it with skim milk and made it like soft serve, and I ate only about 1/4 c. I was extremely full afterwards. I think everyone is different and the tolerance of everyone's sleeve is going to be different! I have seen so many different post op diets on here so I can see how you could want to see if anyone else has tried it! I also LOVE the sugar free Jello pudding in dulce de leche..its awesome! i can eat maybe 1/2 of them, they are only 60 calories and really good! But they dont have any nutrients in them like the other greek yogurt recipies you have been given! Good luck girlie! Just keep your head up and dont get discouraged!

Thanks so much for the encouragement everyone! I am so glad to knowI am not the only one feeling like this and struggling! I will try to drink a protein shake in order to substitute for my lack of calories. I ate about a half of scrambled egg this morning for breakfast and it felt fine, no nausea or anything! So I guess in a little bit I will try to drink a shake, but right now I am just way to full to try it!! I hope everyone has a good rest of the week! I am headed back to work tomorrow(7p to 7a) I hope it goes ok!! And I hope I can stay awake, as I feel so drained!!!! ugh! -
Hi Meggseggos! Thanks for the reply to my post! I see we are in very similar situations! In response to your questions I am 30

I was sleeved Aug 24th, I am 2 weeks post op. I feel "fine" with the exception of being tired all of the time, which I feel like is from not taking in enough calories for energy. My surgeons nurse told me I was supposed to try to start planning my meals and get 350 calories/meal. I am no where near that amount of calories. I may eat 1 ounce of tuna and 1 ounce of applesauce for a meal....and this is all I can eat, how do I get 350 calories from that??? They also say not to rely on my protein shakes, try to eat my protein....but I am not getting enough protein in without them! ALSO....this fluid intake...I am no where near getting enough fluid in...I am probably gettin in half of the required amount of fluid a day! Tomorrow I start soft foods, maybe it will get better, I hope it does, I go back to work Thursday...Im a nurse and work 12 hour shifts, so I cant imagine feeling this wore out at work! Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

Hi Sweets! I just noticed I didn't answer your question about loose skin...YES LOTS of loose skin
Mainly where I was the biggest (inner thighs, butt, arms-they look good until I start flappin aka wavin so I don't do that, and my tummy from 2 kids). BUT I don't work out. So if you work out, you should do much better than I am doing
