i am 0ne month out of the sleeve i started eatting last week and i am really confussed on what to and not to eat could someone help me? i am so far eatting. chicken and beef but chewing chewing chewing, had cheeses sauce with the meats and sour cream on the meats when looking for something different and i have been eatting eggs and sausage in the morning and protien throught out the day. i need help my dr office doesnt give very much info for all this stuff and i gained 5lbs. please help

jas wow that is crazy support have you had your sleeve yet? cris you sound like me my hubby was always you dont have to do this your pretty just the way you are, i know he loves me he has to bc i am a mean wife never happy but i got approved with in the week bc i had diabietis and sleep ap and so on and i had the sleeve the next 2 wks i was so excited and so scared dont really know why i have cancer so i should have been good lol i think it was the needles bc i knew as soon as they would do the iv they would not be able to find the vain lol they told me we do this all day long your in good hands wellll i kid you not it took 10 times until someone found the vain and then it was not that good so when i was out they found a better one lol i told them. well i had my surgery nov 16th and lost 37lbs and not sure why but gained 5lbs back still trying to find someone to answer my question to why that is or if it is normal. good luck to you i am so happ that you are having this. after wards i was just in gas pain but as soon as i started burping and passing i was fine. the real problem i have is that the protien makes me have diarreaha but lots of ppl told me that is normal. the new why liquid protien is the best i mixed it with sf koolaids and had 4 16oz bottles of water set out everyday and that was how i kept up with my water intake. sip your water every 15min use a alarm that will go off 15min all day and sip through a meds cup and you will get it in it is hard but dont stop....yay you!!!! i see ur from garland i am in denison!!!! nice to meet you.

i had problems with nausea and i had to get some meds that you rub on ur wrist it helped some not alot and the water part i had so much trouble getting it in. 64ozs is not easy. i would just sip sip sip set my alarm to go off every 15min hit snooze and it would start all over again and i would sip and get it in but it took couple of days for the 64oz and all the dr would tell me was get it in or you will be in the hospital that was not an option for me. so try the every 15min use a med cup fill it and take at least 4 sips per med, cup full with in the 15 min and by the end of the day...you should have it...i am 1 month out and i noticed the other day that i was able to drink a 16oz bottle in less than an hour . hope that this helps.

i don't but i am glad i ran across this because i have been doing the same thing took nyquill last night and slepted like a baby first time since my surgery nov 16th.

my hubby bought me a ring and it was a size 7 but i just couldnt wait to wear it so i had it sized higher to 9 and it is lose on me now. i went from a size 11 to the 9 and now it is prob an 8. my shoes i am not sure what it is now but i know that the last time i wore my heals they fit just fine then when i went to church the were moving to much and i ended up with blisters on both big toes so telling you don't force yourself to wear them no matter what that hurts lol!

i had my sleeve on nov 16th and the gas pain was horrible in my chest never thought it would go away but as soon as i just let the burping take its course i have been fine you will get to the point (if you are like me) where you don't care where you are or who is around you will just let it out just so it wil not hurt anymore and then you feel better.....i have started eatting i just chew chew chew my food then swollow it i dont puree it i was not told to but i dont have a nurtionist i wish i did becuase that would help alot. i have noticed this weekend that i drink more and faster with out problems but at first the drinking was horrible oh yeah and i do know they say dont eat the tomatoe soup i found out the hard way it hurt me so bad i guess the acids in it so becareful.....do you or anyone reading this have problems with diarreah i hate it!!!
