I had my surgery may 21st and have lost 45lbs I started out at 400 so I have quite a bit to lose.

I found some fiber gummies at Target they are yummy and they seem to help things move the way they were supposed to with fiber.

Oh okay yeah I am on solids I can eat anything that is suggested for the sleeve with no complications

I was sleeved 5/21. I was never really told what I should have in calories, carbs, and fats only protein. I have tried to find the facts but been unsuccessful. I know I could call the nutritionist and find out but I know there are some of you that have had great weight loss success so was hoping you could give me some suggestions.

Thank you for sharing this has given me hope. You look wonderful.

I had the same problem I am four weeks post op I ended up getting butterfly band aides and put over do that it stays together but still can breathe. I also put neosporin on it at night and leave it open then clean and reapply the butterfly's in the morning. This sems to be helping it heal like the other four incisions. I was just at my surgeons office for follow up and he said its not infected they take a little longer to heal because they ate covered most of the time with binding waste bands. He told me to put neosporin on it at night but to continue what I am doing it will heal. If it is not swollen and hurting its not infected.

I am four weeks post op. I never had pain except for getting up for first time after surgery. I thought something was wrong with me but at two weeks post op appointment dr said your doing great. The dr also said that everyone is different my friend who had it done the same day as me is still having pain so I would say that must be a true statement.

I was cleared for all food that I can tolerate high protein low carb. Man I am thinking about things I can eat and it's hard to figure out how to get my protein in.

Thank you.

Oh yeah and have lost 23lbs since pre surgery weigh in

I bought a orange protein shake from my surgeons office. It's the only one I will use now. You can order it directly from the web site. Google bariatric advantage I am telling you it taste like an orange cream shake. I put ice with mine to have some crunch and toake it colder.

I am two weeks post op and have the worst belly ache ever. Any suggestions?

Ty I will try the apple juice and yogurt. The only problem is my stomach feels so full.

I just had my sleeve surgery May 21st. I was on a sliding scale of insulin pre op and am still in it a week post op but my levels are tremendously lower and soon hope to not have to take meds or insulin.

I will do a survey
