  1. I am 11 days post-op and doing great. Only thing is I hate chewing these bitter vitamins from Celebrate. Can I crush them up in broth/soup would that be ok? Would they still absorb that way?

    Chewable Vitamins Question

    I had to buy bariatric multi vitamins with iron from Celebrate chewable. And its like eating sweet tarts without the pleasant taste
  3. 13lbs down since surgery 7 days ago. Yes!

  4. Well I went into the surgery 546lbs, and it's now day 5 of post op and I'm just having broth and water and little protein powder, but I am currently only 544lbs. I'm just shocked in 5 days I've lost 2lbs is that normal?

    Post Op Surgery Day 5 Question

    I'm just shocked I guess, thanks for the reply. Just going to ride it out hopefully I'll start losing faster.
  6. Had my sleeve yesterday morning. Currently at home after a 5 hour ride. Every bump was excruciating. The gas they use in surgery is EVIL. It hurts so bad even now. Had no idea.

      @animallover1247 and @lastmemory318 how are you two doing????

  10. I'm on day 5, I'm starting to really feel dehydrated. I am curious what all can I drink, I hate artificial sweetener or flavored water so I'm currently only drinking water. Is there anything else besides that? Tried Powerade zero but I just hate how sweet artificial sweeteners taste and the aftertastes. Any suggestions gladly accepted.

    Day 5 of Pre-Op Diet.. I Screwed up...

    Thanks for the support everyone. going to continue as best that I can.
  13. Been doing absolutely perfect, 2-3 Protein shakes a day that is all. Then my brother came home last night, hes the manager at Buffalo Wild Wings here, and he brought home boneless plain chicken wings. I woke up to have my morning shake and seen them, and without even thinking i ate two. Now i feel like the most useless failure ever. Even contemplated throwing up.. Not sure how to feel right now.

    You're Cheating

    Im in the US, Louisiana. You?

    You're Cheating

    To anyone that says your cheating they are just ignorant. What's funny is growing up I worked for this guy that always ran me down because of my size and when I mentioned surgery for the first time he told me I was weak and pathetic. Found out recently he had weight loss surgery. Go figure.

    February Sleevers?

    Sorry I can't be more help. I'm really struggling at this point, I'm lactose intolerant so the shakes are just brutal too. I just keep trying to stay focused. I know I need this so that helps but the stomach pain and fatigue is crazy. And for some odd reason I cannot stop going to the bathroom even though I've only had 3 protein shakes a day for 3 straight days. Maybe my body is just flushing I don't know.

      thanks for the support guys, ive been truly hoping after surgery wont be like this, pre-op is miserable to say the least.

      Hang in there!! Pre op diets vary from dr to dr, and some are really restrictive. I don't know what yours is, but you can do it! You come here and get all the confidence and support you need. Each one of us that has or is doing pre op can listen to you vent and get it all out. One day at a time; one battle at a time. One pound at a time. One friend and supportive comment at a time!!! Keep going and don't let it beat you down! You are going to do this and then make it to your surgery date!!

      Thanks Shotzy, the pre-op diet he has me on is 3 protein shakes per day. Period. I can have fat free/carb free jello, or water popsicles. Thats it. Roughly 400 calories a day. Crazy lol. Thanks for all the comments guys, it's a struggle, but we all have one.

    February Sleevers?

    Febuary 15, and on day 3 of pre-op liquid diet. Brutal is the best word to describe it. I'm 550lbs truly hoping this helps me get down there. The fatigue during pre op diet is insane for me. Not to mention I hate artificial sweeteners so what I drink is very limited. Struggling big time.
