1 Mth/50 Lbs Before/after
sleeve_sister replied to sleeve_sister's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Thank you all! Btw that includes my pre op, I've lost 34 since surgery. I still see the same person in the mirror. I didn't see the difference until I put the pics together. I have gone down 2 sizes which I really noticed especially today when I put on my fav jeans and they don't fit. Thanks for the support! I would not have made it threw the month without this group! -
Here it is:

Good luck to all you upcoming sleevers! As a past Lapbander and now sleever, I can tell you that your making the right decision by getting the sleeve! But remember this is still a tool and you have to WANT to lose weight. Good luck y'all!

Today is my 1 mth sleeveaversary! It was a rough month. Since removing dairy from my diet and passing the kidney stones, I am 110% better. I'm very excited to start an exercise program. I'm feeling great. I hit 50 lbs lost the other day, 34 since surgery!

I'm a cheese fanatic myself so I know how you feel! Both my kids had lactose intolerances when I was nursing so I've given it up for them. I don't like giving it up for myself but I don't like feeling nauseas either. Let me know if it works. -

I had the same problem and spent post op week 3 in the hospital. Less than 24 hours after I stopped eating/drinking anything dairy I was 100% no maybe 110% better. You may want to try that. I even tried eAting a ricotta bake last night and was nauseas all night. Sleevers often have lactose intolerance after surgery from what I hear. Good luck! -
Your welcome! Let me know if it works for you. I keep one in the car because that's where I usually get anxiety (I have a hard time riding and not driving) and I hate to drive go figure!

I don't have to take it either but I have a history of vit d deficiency and the calcium plus vit d are the only chewables I could find. If my labs look good in 30 days I can discontinue it.

What's some examples besides the obvious of soft foods? Shrimp? Dying for shrimp but don't want to go too fast.

sleeve_sister replied to Holly5.3's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Anyone have an issue with constipation? Not sure if I am but haven't gone in 3-4 days now. Wondering if I should take some Colace or just wait it out?!? -
I have Citrate calcium with vit D chewables and they are really good.

Hate soup, can do mashed taters, haven't tried much meat besides puréed but crockpot will be sporting something tomorrow, and I don't like pumpkin. I'm super picky more so than my kids. Think I'm going to put a whole chicken in crockpot with rosemary and BBQ and freeze the leftovers in snack baggies. I can freeze it like that right?
