Thanks everyone for your encouraging words. I really appreciate your support. Be blessed everyone

Thank you and u do the same

OMG!!! So I just weighed myself at work. And I weighed 322.4 at my two week appt which was 10/4 and today I am 288.4.

Hey fellow sleevers I went today for my two weeks post op. And I lost 22.5lbs I am so happy I feel better with each day. I have to make this change for the better. I am too young to carry around all this weight. But thank God I am on the road to be a healthier Me!!! Good luck everyone

I think it's the milk or milk products my doc is taking me off of the shakes it gives me bad diarrhea. So I am off to Vitamin Shoppe to get the protein waters. This is a trail n error type of thing I see

Some advice no one told me was about the vomiting and nauseous you feel after surgery. And the gas pains OMG!!! But it will get better with each day. Good luck!!!

Your right I am going to follow orders. I just hope she release me on Friday cause I don't know how much more of not eating I can take.

I have tried the chicken flavor I didn't like it. I really don't like the Unjury brand. I just went and Nectar brand today I just got the vanilla. I tried a couple of different protein shakes brands and the vanilla and chocolate are the ones I like. And I only like them with milk. Your right I will just wait until my post op appt to be cleared I guess being a Nurse and knowing some things with other surgeons and sleeves makes my mind wonder. I will follow the procedure and wait I am just hoping she clears me on Friday cause I don't think I can take too much more of the not eating. I mean I got the surgery to loose weight but I still want to eat lol

Thanks so much I did ask her and she nothing but the protein shakes but this crazy I am starving.

And yes I can get done the whole shake. It's a little frustrating because I can drink fluids but when I drink the sipping thing is so much.

Hello I am on 12oz of milk and one scoop of the protein powder which is 23g.

Sorry trying to learn how to work this thing. However as I mention before I am 1 week 3days post op. My doctor had us do a three day Juice party and from day 4-14 we are only to drink four protein shakes and 48 oz of water daily. I am always hungry and the protein shakes does nothing for me. I tried some scrambled eggs and apple sauce today couldn't get much down. But I was wondering if anyone has any tips for me. I feel like I am going crazy. Before surgery my weight went back n fourth due to the fact that I don't eat enough it was never that I ate too much. I am a snacker and would most times skip meals due to my work schedule. I really want to make this a smooth transitions but I am getting very discouraged with this weeks foods of protein shakes. Do anyone think I can have some very cooked cabbage or soups? I am dying here!!! Protein shake girl lol

Hi All I am 1 week and 3 days post op Sleeved.

I had my surgery in this past Thursday. Everything went well for the first two days I was so sick couldn't hold anything down. But I am in day 3 of the juice party and will be starting protein shakes tomorrow. Don't feel like I have lost weight.

Hello Everyone I am a Nurse so going into this surgery I was a little troubled about getting the surgery. At first I was getting the Lap Band until I had a bad sprain to a ankle that I previously fractured really bad. With the help of my Dietitian and Surgeon I decided to go with the Sleeve. Because of my injury I gained and lost gained finally day of surgery I weighed in at 341lbs. The surgery went well but my first couple of days were painful. I had vomiting, nausea, and horrible gas pains. On top of everything I started my cycle ten days earlier as well. I have been able to tolerate juices broths and I am trying a cream Soup tonight for the first time. I had my favorite restaurant to blend blend my favorite cream of crab soup. I am also feeling some numbness in my right arm and having a hard time sleeping. Will this go away?
