I was sleeved on aug 20 and I have been approved to have salad. I have tried it once so far and I didn't have any issues.
-
My surgeon says no soda popcorn chips crackers or pretzels ever. Not because of healing but for the dietary value. He said these are trigger foods that we need to avoid.
-
I am almost 1 month post op and I started to feel comfortable on my stomach around week 3.
-
Honestly I was starving the first week after surgery. It probably didn't help that watched a lot of the food network all day lol. My surgeon moved me up to soft foods on week 2. My first 'Meal' was a scramble egg and I could only eat about half. Just hang in there and try to stay busy with other things.
-
So I had my 1 week post op appt today and was given the ok to start on soft foods. I was so excited to finally eat something lol. I had a scrambled egg when I got home. I was good but definitely felt weird going down. I couldn't quite finish the whole egg in one sitting. This will take some getting used to.

I was sleeved on wed (8/20) and I had bad nausea from the anesthesia. By day 3 it finally started to wear off. This was the first surgery I've had so I wasn't sure how my body would react to the drugs.
-
Thank you iwhit. Yea I'm slowly coming back to life lol. I do feel better with each passing day.
-
I was sleeved yesterday morning (8/20). Not too much pain but just dealing with nausea. I should be going home tomorrow.
-

Kaiser in Souther California
meme8883 replied to borncuban67's topic in Weight Loss Surgeons & Hospitals
I went through kaiser so cal options. They told us that even if you don't meet the 5-10% goal as long as you don't gain you should be ok. It's really up to the surgeon I guess. It may delay things if you gain any weight. Good luck with everything! -
That's great! I'm hoping for an August date so we will see
-
So I am scheduled for my consultation with the surgeon on Aug 7th. I was told I will get my surgery date at that time.
-
Oh ok. How is everything going for you so far?
-
Not sure yet. Tonight I went to a support group at loma linda medical center in murrieta. My mother had Dr Suh for her surgery 3 yrs ago and she was at the inland valley medical center in murrieta.
-
Thanks. I will. No his office is in corona and the hospital is in murrieta.
-
So I just received notice from kaiser that my referral for surgery has been created and I will be with Dr Suh. His office will contact me to schedule the consultation!
-
Sorry to hear that. They don't really give you too much information about what to expect after the classes are over while you are going thru the program.
-
I believe it is Inland Valley Medical Center.
