Aww, congrats!!!!????

I was sleeve on 9/25/15 so far I'm doing great no issues???? regarding water&sprite in intake my surgeon said it will be difficult at first due to limitations but eventually you'll be able to meet them. When it comes to juice type protein powder I use a little crystal light to give it more flavor also I found a great tasting protein mix at GNC that you use with low fat milk(5 delicious flavors) called "Quest" and they can be purchased in individual packages. Much success, it will get easier????

Any recommendations of some soft foods I can have? Getting bored with the soups, jello, puddings, apple sauce. I must admit I have tried some regular foods but I'm not quite a mt yet???? but they was easy to digest items

I'll be a mt on the 25th I was told by dietitian I could start softs last wk.

15lbs 2wks shirt is looser????

I've lost 13lbs since my surgery date on 9/25/15...... YAYY!!!!

@@EW73 at first I got tired very easy but today I'm doing great!!! I'm going to start a little walking beginning next month.

Good luck!!

Today people are very judgmental and not supportive and tend to jump to conclusions. I didn't want people to know I was having the surgery until I was ready to share do the fact that I didn't want anyone monitoring my wt loss and eye balling me but it leaked out, so oh well!! With that being said don't let it alter your mood, shake it off!! Once you've reached your goal they are going to be secretively inquiring about the surgery too????????

Oh I so no the feeling sleeved on 9/25/15 first follow up visit today lost 13lbs???? congrats on your wt loss things are getting much better

@@chell I feel wonderful much better than I felt last week. Minor soreness in one area very few limitations????go back to work Wed.(I have a desk job) then I have a 3day wk end

It's been 13days now I'm still on liquids but I must admit I have been enjoying a few softs in moderation and taking my time, a few bites, & paying attention to my body. Through it all the hardest thing I've noticed so far is I feel like I'm not enjoying my food to its entirety. I want to just gobble it up take large bites cause I feel with the small ones I'm just not getting the satisfaction and not enjoying my food. It may sound crazy but it's true. I'm taking my time though...and saying as time passes and the more my body heal I'll be and feel more normal and be able to enjoy eating (healthy) and being satisfied????

Thanks!!! Its definitely a life long change and taking some getting use to(one day@a time) I say. When "FOOD" has always been a huge part of your life and you found enjoyment in just eating it's a huge challenge just to "SLOW DOWN!!!" But one day at a time I'm sure it's going to get easier.

I'm sure you get the drift...it never looked so dern good????????6days post op and yes I'm following my "liquid diet," but I'm so ready to taste some real food can't wait until my 3rd wk do I can include softs. Oh lawd I might just sleep until then, lol

Feeling excited????just got that ????

Feeling much better today so I'll be out and about not in the house in front of the tv. It is getting a little easier it's just a mind thing. #IGotThis????????????????????

Thanks????

Well today is my first day home I slept well last night back a little sore, heart rate I'm sure it's up which its being controlled by meds@ da moment and I can't find bp cuff to check it????stomach a little sore when I'm sitting or trying to lye down. Tired of liquids already and it's only the 5th day. It's like if I see another food commercial????????

I haven't got on the scale yet been a little sore I'll weigh later though

Today is my 4th day and I'm not feeling any symptoms described above; sorry you are having such s difficult time. I'm actually doing great just can't get my heart rate down that why I'm still in the hospital but hopefully today once I talk with the cardiologist he has a plan together since we already know it isn't a blood clot so I can go home.

Well guys this is my 3rd day after my sleeve surgery and so far so good besides not being discharged today due to my heart rate. It's extremely high and I had to get an EKG, Ultrasound and now a CT of my heart. Praying everything is negative.

????????I'm lying in my bed waiting for my doctor to come talk with me before surgery...I'm excited!!!!????????????

No I'm from Florida

On my pre op diet and ate something I shouldn't have due to me not being able to resist that BBQ pulled pork sandwich from Wendy's. My Surgery is Friday will it be ok for me to take a laxative today? I sure hope so, because I just did????

That's wonderful to know????
