Brand new start wuth my sleeve
Amanda Nicole Hosaflook replied to katieTC's topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
Yes i am 5 weeks post op and still having a rough time. Just weak and no energy. I didnt have much pain, it was just the nausea and all around sick feeling i had. Week 3 was the worst for me. I'm now starting to see a dim light at the end of the tunnel! -
Energy level changes and different tastebuds after surgery
Amanda Nicole Hosaflook replied to SleevesUp's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I have such low energy. I am 5 weeks post op and just getting some energy back. I have to eat a little bit all the time or I crash. Pre op I hated broccoli, post op I've been craving and eating it like crazy. It's been that way with a lot of things. Hated carrots, love them now. Loved refried beans, hate them now. Sooo weird!! -
Cannot eat or drink anything, i get sick.. Help!
Amanda Nicole Hosaflook replied to cdestrada's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Same thing happened to me. Dehydration causes nausea too. I switched back to liquids and skipped my purée stage and went straight to soft foods. I'm much better now. -

Terrified of becoming dehydrated
Amanda Nicole Hosaflook replied to Noor1969's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I am 5 weeks out and still dehydrated. I just can't get my liquids in. I just drink enough to keep me out of the hospital. It's getting a bit easier but I can only do a bottle of water everyday. -
How much did you lose the first 3-4 months? I want to be out of the 200+ Club by summer.
Amanda Nicole Hosaflook replied to gohelpyourself's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I started at 237 day of surgery and I'm 5 weeks and down to 217. Is that slow? -
When did you stop drinking protein shakes? I find that I have been feeling better eating food for my protein. I am 5 weeks post op and on soft foods.

Nausea 18 Days Post Op
Amanda Nicole Hosaflook replied to Bry76's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I was having the same problem. I stopped my protein shakes and have been trying to get my protein levels in with food. I feel much better. Also after surgery I found I am more sensitive to dairy. I haven't talked to my nutritionist about not doing the shakes yet so I'm not telling you to do it but it worked for me. -

really hungry... anyone else?
Amanda Nicole Hosaflook replied to eyoung's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I eat when I'm hungry. And yes I still get hungry. 2 bites of something usually fills me up. Unless it's soup. I can drink a whole bowl. -
Still feeling terrible. Took short term disability from work to focus on my recovery. I think my biggest thing is struggling to get my liquids in. It's discouraging to see everyone doing so well and I am stuck feeling weak, dizzy and tired

4 wks post op
Amanda Nicole Hosaflook replied to Amanda Nicole Hosaflook's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Oh wow I am not even thinking of working out. Getting up to go to the bathroom gets me out of breath. I was pretty athletic beforehand too ugh. I am having lots of trouble with liquids. Might be why I'm so weak and I can't take my Bari vitamins. They make me Puky. -
Not bragging but.....
Amanda Nicole Hosaflook replied to gohelpyourself's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I'm 4 weeks post op and still no energy and feeling like poo. A lot of people I talked to don't feel normal again until about 6 months post op. I wish I felt as great as you did so soon! I felt wonderful week 1&2 then it went down hill from there. My body caught up with me lack of food I guess. -
When did you go back to work?
Amanda Nicole Hosaflook replied to blackfalls's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I went back after 2 weeks. I also work at a bank. I lasted a couple days and need to be out again. You may think your ready but you won't be. Take at least 30 days. I now have to be off til further notice because I pushed myself. I wouldn't go back until you are back on regular foods. I had no energy. -
