1 week post op protein problems....
kyrickchick64 replied to 2bullymom's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Protein shakes are the DEVIL! . I don't care what kind, I'm so sick of them(see my post: I want MEAT!!) I'm really really trying but my stomach is saying no. No matter how slow I sip it fills me so muchthen the good old artificial sweeteners have me run to the bathroom like Usain Bolt in the Olympics...argh -
???? Calling all March Sleevers....let's support each other!????
kyrickchick64 replied to time for june's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Great to hear your doing well. I'm feeling okay erect I freaking hate protein shakes and I still want MEAT!!. LOL can't have any thing with artificial sweeteners or I'm running to the bathroom so I'm kinda stuck. As far as your drugs tho, don't flush them. Turn them into your local police dept. We don't want them in our water ways and of course we don't want them laying around so the police will either take them(controlled especially) or direct you to your local health dept. Some pharmacies will take them also but some charge (ridiculous!) Hope you continue with you great recovery -
Omg. I'm not overly hungry but I'm sick of soup, sick of protein shakes and anything with artificial flavor. I REALLY want chicken salad with hard boiled eggs! Other than that I'm doing good. Rant over

I was told by my doctor to keep an eye out for this since I take 3 blood pressure pills but I think it happened this morning I got very dizzy in the shower. It was cold in house since the weather can't decide what it wants to do and I got up and took a hot shower I was in there washing my hair with my eyes closed and the room started to spin. I slept late and hadn't eaten yet so maybe that added to the problem. I still don't feel very well an hour later
-
didn't your doctor give you a weekly guide to what to eat? Especially since you had so many problems? If not let me know and I'll send you what my doctor gave me. I was sleeved on the 2nd and I can have creamed soup and yogurt and sf popsicle and pudding

Surgery was 2 days ago and feeling very uncomfortable...is this normal?
kyrickchick64 replied to nycchef76's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
Yep normal! walk the gas off. Take your meds, don't worry about your protein for this week and get your sips of water in. And get some gas x strips omg they saved my life! You'll feel better in a couple days -
If you get the pressure cooker they show on tv, I have it but I have a love/hate relationship with it. The seal sometimes doesn't seal so it doesn't pressure up. You have to hold it shut till the pressure latch catches. Once that happens its amazing. About 10-15 minutes lol

Bariatric Vitamin home delivery good? Or No?
kyrickchick64 replied to Elode's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
I'm getting it. The fee is reasonable and the vitamins don't taste horrible like the bariatric advantage ones I have do. So why not. Usually vitamins upset my stomach. These don't seem to yet -
It's funny my physician assistant says"well you don't have dumping with gastric sleeve surgery" I invited to spend the day with me.

Sugar free food have never set well worth me more so since surgery. 10min in its coming out. I haven't gotten to try much since I'm only 11 days out but since most of the stuff on the list this week are sugar free I'm pretty screwed lol

kyrickchick64 replied to kyrickchick64's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A

Can you have Lean Cuisine and or Smart Ones, or are they too high in sodium
kyrickchick64 replied to LisaDomalewski's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Why would you want to? They're filled with garbage and taste like junk. I'd rather just bake some chicken breasts for 40 minutes @350 with poultry seasoning and salt and pepper and start there. Add vegetable medley and you have lunch Or turkey and cheese roll ups. So easy -

Post-Op Liquid Diet
kyrickchick64 replied to JessicaLauren's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Hope your surgery went well. I found my taste buds have gone crazy after my surgery. I can't eat anything that I did before that was artificially sweetened. I loved the bariatric advantage but now can't stomach them but I'm okay with quest. -
I'm at 9 days out and I can't sleep in the morning and in the morning I'm the afternoon I can't help but sleep
-
Yes but it's always been that way for me. Note I can't stand the taste of social sweeteners after surgery

1 week post op protein problems....
kyrickchick64 replied to 2bullymom's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
The first week I failed miserably on protein.my taste changes were so radical. I couldn't eat anything with artificial sweetness. I wanted to gag. I loved the bariatric advantage shakes before surgery now I can't even. My dr said don't worry this week just get the water and some broth. This week is better and I find the quest shakes are less sweet. I'm getting better every day -

How many people kept Weight Loss Surgery a secret ?
kyrickchick64 replied to shorty54's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
I haven't told too many people. My husband had told everyone at work so I'm not sure why I don't go ahead. I may in a few weeks -

I say stop weighing yourself and just follow the plan. I refuse to be a slave to a scale. If your following the plan you'll get where you need to be. I will weigh once a month at the doctor ofc so I'm on the same scale every time. Measure your self if you must do something. You body changes will be visible there sometimes more than on a scale..
