Pureed Foods Phase Starts Tomorrow. Need Protein Suggestions?
whaletail0731 posted a topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I got the " anything in a blender" point, but just want some meat if I can to eat. Friends told me about low fat healthy style chicken salad and tuna and egg salad. Any other suggestions. Post op day 7. -
Need alittle help. I am 2 months post op from band to sleeve. 50 lbs down so far!!!!! But every now and then after eating, I have this extreme sweating episode like a hot flash or something. Profusely sweating all over. Just wondering if anyone else has experienced this?? And perhaps may know why it happens.

Thank you Happy Camper. I'll have to pay attention to what and when it happens. Thanks again.

I'm an ER nurse and I took off two weeks. The first week was bearable, but the second week I was fine. Still no lifting, but work was fine week 3. Learning to listen to your body and getting into a routine was the hardest. But six weeks is a long time. Good Luck!!!!

I had my band to sleeve revision April 9,2012. My doctor told me the same thing, he wouldn't know about scar tissue until he was inside. I was scared too, but after, he said the band slipped right off and no scar tissue. I am 4 weeks post op and down 38 lbs with no more band issues. It will be fine. Don't let your nerves get the best of you!!!! Good Luck!!!!!!

Losing Without Protein Drinks?
whaletail0731 replied to Cherrybomb's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I am 7 days post op and my nutrionist said it was ok to add extract to my shakes. I love the vanilla extract. It makes all flavors taste better. My friends gave me different flavors as supportive gifts( banana, jamacian rum, strawberry, and orange). It only takes a drop or two. It gives me a variety. I mostly use the vanilla shake powder. Down 13lbs. -

whaletail0731 replied to adrimc26's topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
Got my sleeve the same day, after revision from a lapband that made me vomit daily for 4 years. So, I feel your pain. Is it going to get better. I can't drink hot or cold. G2 is staying down a little. But what makes it better??
