Sleeved today
mommyjamie replied to hopeful2loose2014's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I promise it will get better! I am 6 days post op and feel great! Haven't used pain meds since the first night. Today I went food shopping with hubby. I'm not driving yet, but hopefully by next weekend. -
Well I just finished 9 oz of a shakes. I started it at 10:30. Two questions, will this have an adverse effect on my stomach and does that count as 9 oz of liquids?

5 days Post Op and having pain with deep breathing
mommyjamie replied to bellatiff013's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I would call the dr if I were you. My incisions are scabbed over and healing great. I never had any drainage. Also I think you should be able to do most things on your own. Maybe it's just my ability to bounce back, but better safe than sorry! -
I just started full liquids and was given the okay for cream of wheat. I took 2 oz of that and added 1 oz of milk ( made w 1% milk too). I was almost done and got a squeezing in my belly right under my boobs. Is that my new sleeve telling me to stop?

mommyjamie replied to Alex Brecher's topic in General Weight Loss Surgery Discussions
When I go to the Chinese buffet I usually eat peel and eat shrimp. Lol that's it! -
I sleep on my side at 6 days post op, even found myself on my belly last night. Lol all was okay.

I get it too and I was sleeved the same day. It's more like a pulling of my incisions. -
What does restriction feel like?
mommyjamie replied to mommyjamie's topic in Post-op Diets and Questions
No hiccups or burping yet, but I get what feels like a cramp in my chest and then stop. I ate my hot cereal super slow on a baby spoon so I would know when I'm done. I'm so glad to feel that restriction! -

I'm only 6 days out, but LOVE going out to eat. What suggestions do you guys make for different restaurants? I typically love Chinese but worry since everything seems to be cooked in oil. -
What does it feel like when something gets stuck?

I am a nursing student and am going back to school Monday which is 1 wk post op. I have a clinical with school aged kids. Hopefully there is no problem.

Okay so I just ate 1/3 c. Soupy cream of wheat. I waited like 20 min and drank a few oz of water. I don't feel anything going on. No fullness feeling, nothing. It seems like everyone on here feels full. Why don't i?
-
How is the potato and chicken soup? I have a whole container that I haven't opened yet. I'm kinda afraid. So I guess I am going to have to do Breakfast, lunch, dinner and drink in between. Do you guys use mashed potatoes from a box?

What are you eating?

I made soupy cream of wheat but have no idea when enough is enough. I used 1 c milk and 2 tbsp. farina with a touch of Splenda. What would be considered a serving? I ate probably 1/3 of it and feel like I could eat more, but don't want to risk anything. Help!
-
3 oz of cooked cereal, right? Then add the milk to thin it. I just made a thinned serving. It was a PITA to make and I wasted so much. I feel like an idiot. Probably just lack of nutrition.lol
-
Oh and seriously, the cream of wheat had no substance to it whatsoever, lol. So having read what you said I'm sure it just slid through.
-
Okay I'll give a call. When you do your 3 tbsp. of say, soup. Do you just measure it out?
-
Tried drinking one of these today and NOPE, my little belly won't tolerate it yet.
-
I'm 5 days post op. I think my biggest question is how much should I eat of a full liquid? 1/4 c. -1/2c.? I don't want to overheat w/ o realizing it.

Where do I find them?
