Congratulations!! Looking great u can do it!

I agree with sleevedmama16...i have not been on pain meds since last week wed...protein shakes etc u still use calories just to move...i have noticed lately hot liquids are going down real well so gonna try to heat up my protein shake and see how it goes...cross your fingers!!

Ahh ok...yeah i have no problem going back i want too i love my job its that i get tried real quick.

I find that taking gas ex 4 times a day omg helps so much with the gas pain...with out it woukd suck...and at 3 days out i was still having stomach spasams...anytime anything touched my stomach it hurt

Try with some honey....decaf coffee works well and well counts as your liquids...

Just know what works on day may not the next....i notice hot liquids are very easy but cold no...

Yeah i have spend a mini fortune on food just trying what works...i cant do the Popsicles..so i only buy 1 item try it and buy more if it works

What do you mean...friday the 1st they consider it 2 weeks post op even though its less...on friday im put on purried food like oatmeal, eggs, chili, etc

They said too thick..and my belly would fight harder to break down the egg. This coming friday i can have it just not yet.

Miso is ok egg drop no...but again thats my dietician... Yogurt is good...oikos has a tripple zero thats good has 15gms of Protein little to no sugar..has a few good flavors too...salted carmel, chocolate. Also remember maybe ur belly dont tolerate cold food, maybe it prefers warm or hot..try it different ways..i notice i can drink broth but cant Water very well... Today im having some stomach spasms so may take a pill later for it...its just random...i dont even have to be eating or drinking for it to come on.

You can...i drink optimum nutrition oats and whey...either vanilla or chocolate.. With water or skim milk...that and my gottage cheese i make pretty good on my protien and sip water all day...look me up on kik if u like...latinameya

Seedless...dietician said to stay away from.sugarless cause it may be too sweet...i got the strawberry seedless jam...hell even just a spoonful helps for a different taste..i also bought top rammen in a cup...and strain it just drinking the broth...so at this moment eating the spicy chicken one and omg so good...

I feel very fatigued... I am sipping and eating broth, yogurt etc but i have no energy at all...by the time i get myself ready for the day im too tired to do anything!

Welcome hun how you feeling?

I am 6 days post op and was the same...im starting to get into a rhythm... As soon as i wake up i take the gas x strips that helps with the cramping....i did have to take the spasam medication for 2 days after surgery though...all seems to be ok so far...my shake tastes better with water then milk or almond milk to me now...and i can almost get a whole shake in now...then i sip all day...at night i try cottage cheese with seedless jam and helps...we will get through this but i feel hun!

Im an office manager in a doctors office consists of paperwork and walking so it would benefit me to go back. I think the longer i am home the harder it will get....im ready to get moving.

So on march 21st 2016 i got sleeved and had a hernia repair...im curious how many of you got got one or not and how many took longer due to it...im on day 4 and i can certainly move better then i was...i still feel a pull in my belly... The hardest is protien intake...fluids is not an issue...but anything Protein in it..like shakes etc and i have tried a few suck royally and im miserable... I know its gonna get better but that seems so far away from now.... Help...need encouragement!

There are others this is the most interactive

Ginger u can PM me happy to be there for you...i have a friend in tx too who had it done.

Had mine on 3/21/16 my husband said it was just under an hour.

Feeling better today still very fatigued easily...doctor says it is normal... So that is comforting...finally i get to sleep in another position other then my back...last night my sides were good...still sipping and doing what i can...i go back to work on monday so hoping for the best!...

That gives me some encouragement... Knowing im not alone...i feel the tug on my belly...and moving is gettinf better but still get tired very easily which really sucks.

Im still real tired very quickly...doctor said its normal and as my body adjusts it will get better....miso soup goes down great...sugar free popsicles are ok still hard to finish one...sipping all day...

Took me 35 min to eat yogurt...i want peanut butter etc

Yeah ur right it will get better...just so hard to see....
