Thanks everyone! I am getting fluids in no problem! Yesterday I finally for over 60g of protien (1st day in purée)! I am feeling good! Clothes are already getting loose but that darn scale is killing me. Maybe I will make my husband hide it from me. I just don't want to fail! I will continue doing 100% because I didn't do this for nothing!

Chewable vitamins make me sick
heatwhip replied to valhughes's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I take a Equate (Walmart braand) chewable complete multivitamin and it goes down fine. No problems. -
My doc is very cautious! Originally he said 6 weeks for anything but walking. He gave me the okay because I was feeling so good but made sure to tell me only treadmill and elliptical!

Whats wrong with me?
heatwhip replied to hewalkswithme's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I am dealing with the same thing right now. 2 weeks post op. I am trying not to get frustrated, I mean I am following all the rules it is impossible to not lose weight right! I feel thinner and eventually my crapo scale will agree with me and until then I will keep on keeping on! -
I waited one week. My doc said whenever I was ready!

$25000 Surgery Cost, what did you pay?
heatwhip replied to NewYear'sSleeve's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Just got my explanation of benefits and hospital billed over $58K! I only pay max $1500 a year out of pocket and between pre op and surgery unpaid that much. -
I am 11 days post op and eating between 200-400 calories a day. I am concerned that when I up my calories I will stop losing or even gain. Maybe not because I will be able to exercise more? How many calories should I be eating? My doc never gave me a range.

60-80 and it is a struggle. Today I will probably actually hit it for the first time.

want yoghurt so bad!
heatwhip replied to mishicokpi's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
When do you start full liquids? Then you can have yogurt! -
Yummy lunch.

That looks delish! -
Banana muscle milk is awesome. Just tried it today. It is high in calories but I only had 1/2. I also have isopure.,,,,yak! I will get there!
-
It is impossible for me to get my protien in if I only eat 3 times a day and a shake is considered a meal! Help! 10 days out!
-
For the record I am also not much for spitting! Lol! For now I will stick to smelling yummy cravings!

Prilosec/Nexium question...
heatwhip replied to Ah0505's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I take the same Nexium and it is hard. Try mixing in protien shake. -

Mine tasted like soapy lemon water and I did vomit quite a bit afterwards. It was dark blood and actually made me feel better. It wasn't a lot of stuff to drink and it was fast!
-
Yes. I asked. I even put protien powder in my soups and puddings. Today I didn't have a shake I put unflavored in my crystal light. I just hate counting them as a meal. I need more. I am only getting 300 or less calories per day!
-
I am way to early to eat it but I will dream about it tonight!

sleeved may 6th..this is tough!
heatwhip replied to Sophia ♥'s topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
This is just what I needed to read right now. I am feeling pretty down right now. I am only 10 days out and I just want something other than a liquid. I want pizza so bad! I read on this board before that you just have to take each day and remember in a year from now this will be a memory! -
anyone forget to feed others?
heatwhip replied to devonmae's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I get some sort of high from cooking for others now! Maybe smelling the food helps. Lol! -
First few day were hell! By 1 week post op I felt 100%. Problem is getting fluids in while returning to normal life.
-
Had my sleeve 5/22. Started pre op diet 1 week earlier. Have lost 26lbs since start of pre op diet. Why am I not happy with that? Shouldn't I be? After everything to get here I guess my brain expected my body to be at goal when I got out of surgery. Lol! I can't be the only one dealing with this.....right?

At 1 week out
